We use one of these - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Heavy-Duty-P ... Sw8axaM2pN

We use it for cutting photo papers to random sizes for particular customers. It will cut a full 500 sheet ream of 80gsm paper, we tend to use it for cutting 270gsm gloss (50-100 sheets at a time) works very well.

Its 'A4 size' but the cutting blade is just over 30cm so will cut A3 in to A4 for example without issue.

We are on our 3rd one, but they last us around 3 years before the blade starts to blunt / the clamp mechanism starts to strip the thread. Can't complain for the money in my eyes.

I would not trust a table top golloteen to accurately cut 100 sheets.
there will be a bit of slip n slide from top to bottom of stack ....
i had a good one, and we still chose to do a dozen sheets at a time, ended up faster and more accurate....

No problem :) as Logobear said, with large quantities it can slip. But I have no issue cutting around 1 inch thick of gloss / coated inkjet media. With larger amount it can slip a little but only around 1mm from top to bottom of the stack.

Yea [MENTION=117]logobear[/MENTION] is right in saying the higher the stack the slipping will increase. The reason i am on the hunt for another is because my other packed it in and has now retired the poor sod Lol. Anyway thanks.
