I've purchased two different portable punches, and they have been a very poor solution to my desire to punch my own paper that's not TUL's specific papers, such as things I've printed I want in a discbound folder. The portables lock shut and have to be pried open, even TUL's. But this device cut's through even cardstock with out an issue, and releases those pages easily without having to be pried open.
The punch is well made. The device is built with smooth lever action, and good weight, so it won't slide out from under your hands as you punch. The silicone base only adds to the stability, and it comes off and goes back on without problems.
Excellent to use with paper. I punched a laminated cover and the plastic got stuck in the holes, nothing that I could not fix with a pair of tweezers. I can punch 12 to 15 paper pages at once with no problems.
