What Customers Are Saying
Customers are sharply divided on this vinyl flooring cutter. Many report it fails to cut thicker LVP, LVT, or 6mm planks as advertised, with frequent breakage including handles drooping and bases cracking after initial use. However, a significant group praises it for thin peel-and-stick vinyl tile, noting smooth, accurate cuts that outperform box cutters. Several criticize the cheap construction and feel misled by marketing suggesting compatibility with thicker materials. Overall, satisfaction depends entirely on application—excellent for thin tiles, unsuitable for thicker planks.

Would Recommendit was a decent product and would be good for a home project. i unfortunately used it on a somewhat larger job and it had broken by the end of the job.
Broke on the 3rd 5mm Vinyl Flooring Plank
Would Not RecommendThe plastic base snapped after the 3rd vinyl plank. I was only cutting 5mm thick planking, nothing thick at all. Lowes customer service was great and returned it with no issues. Definitely look for a better product unless you’re cutting paper thin material.
Not meant for 6mm vinyl plank
I'm sure this cutter is great for thinner vinyl plank material, but not for anything 6mm or above. It cracked my pieces instead of cutting it straight.
Cuts CVT well. LVP depends on thickness.
Would RecommendThis worked great for CVT and thinner LVP flooring. Did not work so well on Thicker LVP.
You won’t be disappointed with this product
Would RecommendIt delivered as advertised. This tool enabled me to cut with precision with no issues.
Unusable for LVP
Would Not RecommendAn employee at Lowes recommend this to cut LVP flooring. Heck, it's even in the isle with the LVP flooring. Maybe this works well with other materials but if you're planning on using this with Smartcore products, DON'T. Waste of time and money.
No Fuss Cuts
