If you do any laminate work at all, you gotta have this tool!
This is the one tool that pays for itself through saved time of having to manually cut each edge of laminate sheet. I have owned several of these slitters through the years in my countertop business and can tell you that they are very reliable. The only maintenence required is to change the 2 cutter blades every 3-4 years. Highly Recommend!

Im not an expert at laminating. This is only my third time installing laminate. But I can tell you this, the Virutex tool cut my installation time by 50%. Just like the other review states, its not the large pieces that are hard to cut its the thin narrow ones. This tool is definitely worth every penny spent. Amazon once again had the best price @ I received my purchase in 4 days with no problems

Years ago I used and older version of this product. I've always wanted a newer one after going into business for myself. This saves so much valuable time in preparing trim and small laminate applications. I'm really happy with my selection and purchase price.

Boy, do I wish I had bought this thing about ten years ago. I don't do a lot of laminate work, but when I did, I was cutting strips on the table saw. If you've ever tried that, I need say no more. This little tool does exactly what it's meant to do, and it's easy to use. Even if you only do two or three laminate jobs a year, buy this.
