Is there any difference (and if so, what??) between this and the Zutter Round It All?
I apologize if this has been asked before, but I couldn't get the forum search to work, it kept freezing up and locking me out.
No difference in what it will cut. I have the Chomper and somebody asked the other day about a tool that would round credit card type plastic - I tried it out for her and it worked, no problem at all. Chipboard, cardstock, acetate - all fine!
I've heard people say that the Round-it-All does not do well on thinner stuff (like a single sheet of regular cardstock) but I haven't tried one so can't say from experience.
The Chomper has 1/4" and 1/2" sides to choose from so you have two tools in one. If you have a Crop-a-Dile, the Chomper will seem pretty familiar - same kind of build quality and feel to use, the gearing means you don't have to put an enormous amount of pressure on even to go through thick stuff.
Thanks! I already have a Round-it-all, still in the package ( got it 1/2 price as a hostess award) so I don't think I "need" the corner chomper, but it's good to have that confirmed .... plus, I have small hands and I find the Crop-a-dile a little awkward to use, because it's bigger than my hand span (if that makes sense).
Okay, money saved for some other goodies!
Yep, if your R-I-A makes the size of rounding you like to use and it's comfortable then I'd say you're good to go and the pennies can buy you something else - have fun choosing something!
I will chime in here...I just bought the Chomper ( I think Joanne convinced me I needed it...LOL) and I already have the Pink RIA. I was actually shopping for the Blue RIA because I wanted to do smaller corners as well, but the Chomper was CHEAPER and does both sizes. I find it easier to use with a more secure grip than the RIA too! And it' true...the RIA will not do one sheet of paper crisply...the Chomper does it all!! One sheet, a card, plastic...same as the RIA and then some!
So if you have the RIA and see no use for the other size... then definitely spend your $$ on other things!
