Mine was only a cheapo when we started 3 years ago and gets regular use. Its now started squealing loudly in use which wakes my 5 day old up.
What sorts are everyone using?

I'll only show you mine if you show me yours first!
Actually, I'm using a cheap, 12 quid guillotine from ebay at the moment which is ample for cutting mug wraps etc.

I'm with Jennywren on this.
A simple knife from wilko and a ruler.
I do have a couple of trimmers laying around but by the time I've put the paper in and lined it up and cut it I've done twice as many with the knife

An 18" Rexel CL120 guillotine (with the guard removed)..... superfast trimming, at least until I cut my fingers off.
