I guess I thought from the picture this would have a heavier resin board to it. It's actually pretty thin plastic with criss-crossing reinforcement underneath. I found it unacceptably light (i.e. you need to hold down the board side of it too keep it from tipping when you apply force to the blade).
Wound up returning it and springing for this more heavy duty one: Premier Heavy-Duty Green Board Wood Trimmer, Cut Up to 20 Sheets at One Time, Steel Blades, 12 Inches, Green (PREW12) (Note, despite the product description, this one is actually particle board rather than real wood... but still far better than flimsy plastic). This one also has a nice metal safety latch that engages automatically. The safety latch on this one was just a piece of plastic you have to flip off and on manually.
I could see someone wanting this if they were transporting it often (i.e. you didn't have enough desk space and were carrying from another room when you used it). But for me with it just sitting on my desk, I want something more substantial.
