Questions & Answers

Stephanie B : What model number is this item? 450 ? Or 750?Thomas H : It is Model 550-1... I hope this helpsDANIEL L : It's neither. It's the 550-1LYNARD H : Based on the SKU: LG5501 and MFR: 550-1, I would say the model number is 550-1. This is the model I have, works great. Hope this helps!BONNIE T. H : Sorry, I own the 550. I think the difference between the 450 & the 750 is the maximum length of the cut area. Hope this helps.Bernard D : It is neither. The 450 has a flimsier perpendicular arm. This is the 550, which is basically the same board mounted setup as the 750. The main difference between the 550 and the 750 are the few extra tools, which you can buy separately if you need them. This works; and I would stay away from the 450, which does not seem very sturdy. Note that unlike the old tools, which were made of metal, the new ones are made of plastic. I keep using my old ones. I haven't used the new plastic ones more than a couple of times. They work; they are just not as "meaty" as the old ones. Force of habit....JEANINE C : It looks like the 450. The 450 & 750 are similar but the 750 has more features and accessories that come with it
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?DENNIS E : It fit's my needs plus Logan's reputation and some of the customer comments.DENISSA J : It has become a necessity to have this for picture mounting and framing

Very functional tool

This is the third mat cutter that I have bought and will be the final one. It is awesome! It was very simple to put together and very functional to utilize. It truly makes matting a very delightful task.

not as easy as it looks

works great everything included only thing is it is not as easy as just pulling back or pushing forward. blade depth is suppose to be set to just start cutting mats, but i have found that is not the case. 4 simple pulls and the mat falls out has yet to work for me.

This classic cutter is a must have !

I was given a the economy version years ago but found it took more time to create larger mats. This mat cutter is all you need, unless you want to cut glass. The cutting square works beautiful once you check the square. Just use a wood shim to set square and voila, you are in business. Took me only 10 minutes to set up. Mats come out fantastic.

excellent product. easy to use

I was reluctant to cut my on mats as I had heard how difficult it was to get consistently good results. My experience with the Logan Simplex mat cutter has been excellent and the mat cutter is easy to use.

I am impressed!

I have been interested in this type of mat cutter for a long time. Guess my expectations were quite high. So far I have not been disappointed! Shipping was fast and the cutter arrived in excellent shape. There were a few items to assembly but assembly went quickly and easily. The markings on where to start and stop the actual are good guidelines but just guidelines. I chose to cut some mats using scrap material before I attempted a production cut. And I was quickly able to see exactly where to start and stop my cuts to prevent overcuts. I am a Photographer and do custom framing for my work and for items people give me to frame. This item will provide years of use to make quality mats quickly and easily. Definitely woudl recommend to a friend. I have no cons yet, the quality and capabilities with this cutter are excellent and I don't see anything missing based on the price.
