I have one. I bought it while I was waiting three years for my Genesis trimer. I actually use my Rotatrim more than my Genesis. The cutting grid took me a while to get used to and for a little while I was convinced it was crooked, but it was just me I like the weight of the trimmer, it's solid enough that's it never shifted on me while cutting, it will cut off a tiny sliver of paper. I'm very happy with it.

I also have both a rotatrim and a genesis and I use my rotatrim almost exclusively. I just find it more user friendly.

I have a Genesis but it does not cut through more than one piece of paper at a time. Does the rotatrim? Also what model do you have?

What size is good to get for this trimmer? I am looking for a new trimmer.

I have a 15" and I love the size.
Two things to consider when buying the Rotatrim.
It took me a while to get used to this cutter because the printed grid is in metric. I am not sure if you can get in imperial or not. I ended up creating my own grid in inches and gluing it directly to the cutting surface. Also, I was told that there are different grades of cutters and you need to get the Professional or "M" series if you want something that's comparable to the Genesis.
HTH,

Good information thanks barabra!

I am looking at the Rotatrim trimmer and see both the "m" series and "rcm". Are these the same?

I have a RotaTrim that is 12" wide by 24" long. The grid is in 1/4" increments. Shop carefully because some come with a 10mm grid, but they do have the ones with the 1/4" grid.

Cuts one sheet of paper at a time. I've even cut mat board with mine. I wouldn't trade it for any other cutter. I've had mine now for about 10 years.

This is the one I have with the 1/4" grid:
