Essential tool for laminate flooring.
This cutter is specced up to 11mm flooring. I had 12mm planks from B&Q and was wary at first. However, with a little care and steady pressure during the cutting process, I achieved good results from it. As other reviewers will state, this does not cut, in the usual scissor sense, but rather it chops through a 3mm wide section of the boards and as a result there is always a degree of damage to the finished edge towards the rear of the cut. That means that you must always cut with the flooring plank facing upwards and you the cut downwards. I had no notable damage to the finished top surfaces of the boards at all as a result of using this tool. You need to be able to apply a good deal of force to the handle and keep this reasonably steady for the duration of the stroke. That said I had to pause and restart a couple of occasions and it was easy to restart the cut with care to ensure the board had not moved position and that you did not pounce on the lever initially but just applied force gradually increasing until the cutting restarted.The plastic anvil/stop which you have to clamp in place to secure the edge of the board for cutting, needs to be securely clamped in position. It also needs to be checked after each board in case it has moved back out of position. This happened to me without being noticed and resulted in a board almost getting ruined. I spotted it in time and was able to stop the cut, reset the anvil and then continue the cut successfully. Problem being that if this moves too far, the cutting blade will not reach the complete way across and stops almost full way across leaving too little material to then move the board back to adjust the anvil without risking breaking the remaining uncut board in two at the weak point!! Lesson learned!!!The smaller, cheaper version of this cutter cannot cope with boards greater than 8mm as it has a one piece blade and handle, stamped from 3mm steel plate. This one has a seperate blade and much beefier handle assembly to cope with the extra forces involved. For the extra money it gets my vote all day long. Oh, and the floor looks absolutely great down in the kitchen!!!

Great piece of flooring equipment cuts 7 and 8mm perfect haven’t tried it on anything bigger yet, one downside the Allen key is really poorly made it got rimmed on my second time using it poor quality.

It doesn't cut, it smashes, but does it very well!
The media could not be loaded. Let me start with the most important thing in this (and in all model of all brands) wooden cutter. They don't "cut", they actually smashed approximately 5 millilitres of wood, resulting in two piecesPlease see the video. For reference, the piece I cut in the video is a veneered (both sides) MDF panel of 4mm thick.I have cutted a 6mm without problem, and I suspect you can cut even thicker, however with 4mm is very easy and you don't need to be Hulk, and probably with 10mm you will have to apply all your weight to do it.The constructions is solid, high end aluminium and very resistant plastic for the legs (It has dropped a from almost 2 metres and not a single crack). The extra support for keep long pieces leveled is a plus.The weird mechanism of the articulated arm help a lot when pushing up the "blade", keeping the wood down.For my needs is perfect. It allow me to cut the pieces to a more manageable size, without the noise and dust of an electric saw.If you plan to use it for laminated floor, the cut is not "clean", but that would be the part that goes against the wall and covered by the skirting, so no need to be perfect.

Worthwhile investment for larger projects/future
I'm an avid DYI'er who has laid plenty of laminate floors in the houses I have owned over the years, Normally I have used a jigsaw to cut the boards, which has meant noise, dust and wasted time going outside for every single board. I've been considering getting a cheap cutter to do this but the reviews of them has always scared me away.A few months back I finally gave in and purchased this after figuring it was worth the investment increasing the cost to get something more likely to work. I have not been disappointed! I've put down the bedroom floor and I'm currently extending the sitting room floor into the hallway and kitchen and there has been no signs of wear on the cutter. Please keep in mind that it does not as much cut as "crush" a 2-3mm wide section out. In doing so there is some fraying of the board though this is pretty much entirely underneath and should not be an issue if the boards are laid properly.I have used it to cut 6mm laminate boards both across and in their length without much physical strain when applying my weight and strength as an average 80kg man. You will however still need a jigsaw for finer detail cuts around doorways et cetera.All in all a product that has more than made up for its cost in time and effort saved, with a build quality that gives me confidence it will last a long time.

Do not use for vinyl planks!
The product description states :"for almost all laminate types, including those with integrated footfall sound insulation, as well as click vinyl planks and self-adhesive vinyl tiles with a width of up to 465 mm"Also the box packaging promotes the same.In reality you can forget this product being of any use on vinyl planks, it is simply not meant to "cut" the vinyl plank material. The reason being that this "cutter" does not cut at all, it punches out a 4-5 mm gap, which is pushed out with force through the aperture as you press the handle down. This might work well on traditional laminate but is just terrible on vinyl planks as their composition is completely different. After some testing on vinyl planks, either use a sharp blade to score the plank or tile cutter and snap or use a hand saw or even a multi-tool.In conclusion I gave this product 3 stars as the product would work well on certain materials, however it is falsely advertised.

Easy to assemble and use
Nothing to dislike, does what it says on the box accurately and easily.

Mit dem Laminatschneider lässt sich hervorragend arbeiten.Sehr von Vorteil ist, dass dieser kleine "Beistelltisch" dabei ist, so dass man auch alleine stressfrei damit arbeiten kann. Auch Längsschnitte ließen sich hervorragend durchführen, sowie Schnitte im Winkel.Abhängig von der Breite des Laminat und der Dicke der Klinge fällt natürlich Abfall an, aber mit Handfeger, Schaufel und Eimer nebenbei hat man immer einen sauberen Arbeitsbereich, besser als mit Stich- oder Kappsäge.Ein gewisser Kraftaufwand ist notwendig, aber man durchtrennt ja auch ein stabiles Material. Ich fand es jetzt nicht so übermäßig, so wie ich es in einigen Rezessionen gelesen habe.Ich habe mich vorab im Internet (u.a. Youtube) informiert und bei Vergleichen lag dieses Gerät immer ganz vorn.Venyl kann auch bearbeitet werden, hier muss man darauf achten, dass es Venylschneider gibt, welche kein Lamminat schneiden können.

Utensile perfetto.
Ho preso questo utensile per tagliare laminati e SPC e non sapevo bene se mi sarebbe stato utile davvero.Ho posato due pavimenti in SPC da 6 mm. e devo dire che con questa ghigliottina si lavora benissimo sul lato corto del prefinito ma è facilissimo e molto comodo sul lato lungo, basta una riga con la matita ed il gioco e fatto, poi basta spostare un pò il pezzo se si vuole correggete la traiettoria.Una vera chicca per chi si appresta, anche senza molta esperienza a posare questo tipo di pavimento.
