Default circle cutter --- which one?

I have the coluzzle -- It's ok, but I am getting annoyed with snipping the connecting pieces --- it sometimes is not perfectly round and I'm a little
anal.

What do you scrappers use? I have heard good things about the CM circle cutter -- anyone have it?

Thanks!

I love the CM specialty cutters (not their regular photo cutter though). I also have circle punches ranging from the very small to about 3" in diameter. The punches are easier to use but the CM circle cutter has larger sizes.

I love the CM system too, a bit pricier than SU's coluzzle, but it does a great job.

DEFINITELY the CM cutter!!
I've had the circle and the oval cutters for years. Three different size blades still work good!
EASY to use, and they do a GREAT job!!!

I've never used the CM system, but I've only heard good things. Personally, I use the Coluzzle. After I cut the main part of the circle, I leave my blade in the channel & paper and rotate the template slightly. I then cut through the tabs. I do this with a lot of the shapes - I can't seem to cut the tabs neatly any other way.

I love the CM cutting system. I couldn't scrapbook without it! One of the circle sizes even fits a gallon paint can lid perfectly!! It's well worth the money.

Another vote for the CM system! To be fair, I've never tried my coluzzle. I got them both about the same time--long story!--and the CM system was so great and easy that I just never got around to the coluzzle.

I also vote for CM. I have a Coluzzle but it seems to be beyond me...the CM is much easier to use.

I use the CM circle cutter, and have found it very easy to use and get perfect circle cuts. However, there is one drawback....If for some reason you want a 1 3/4" or 2 3/4" circle there is no way to get those specific sizes.

Although I don't own it because I have so many circle punches, I have used the CM cutting system and agree that it works great!

Hi, I have the Creative Memory cutter system in the ovals, circles, & edges and find them easy to use. I love them.

I love my CM cutters, but I also like to use my Coluzzle templates too. Depends on what I making at the time.
