TIL that cheap vinyl plank cutter I bought on Amazon actually works better than my big rig

I was super skeptical when I grabbed a $40 vinyl cutter off Amazon last month for a small bathroom job near Austin. Been using my heavy duty shears for years, but that little thing zipped through 12 planks without a single chip or crack. Has anyone else tried one of those budget cutters and been surprised by the results?

no chips or cracks" huh? I've seen Amazon cutters snap on the third plank. Skip the gamble.

Oh, I've got to push back on that a bit. @andrew_baker9 might have a point if you're buying the absolute worst junk, but my $40 cutter handled everything I threw at it without a hickup. Sometimes the simple, cheap stuff just works fine for a home project, no need to overthink it.

Honestly, did you grab that one off Amazon too? I went with a cheap one from a local hardware store and it held up way better than I expected through a whole room of laminate.
