I absolutely LOVE my Tonic Trimmers, I have the large based one, and one of the smaller ones, as well. They make trimming and cutting a breeze, and make it really easy to get accurate cuts if you are making cards, or using the paper for a stitch bound book. (which I really enjoy doing) I also find that the small one is great for trimming photos and mattes for them, and because of the clear plastic finger guard rather than the colored one (my large one has a colored guard) its easy to be able to trim things by 'eye' as well.

I love my tonic trimmer! but like any tool it has its limitations. I have to borrow my dd (age 9) PC trimmer when I need to cut paper in the middle of a page for my frugal scapping. I have the tonic serrated non stick scissors for cutting um rubber stamps, won't trade it for anything. I also have the punches and border system. I need to play with that more but when i have used it the the turnout is beautiful.
