Pros : Easy to handle. Comes with everything needed to score, separate, and sand smooth.
|
Cons : Just a caution not really a con - plate that supports bottom of bottle must be tightened properly to prevent shifting.
|
| Other Thoughts : I evaluated three bottle cutters based on online reviews before buying this one. I am happy with my choice. The cutter is easy to control. Other cutters appeared to be a balancing act but this one cradles your bottle. I can let go and nothing shifts. The third bottle scored and separated perfectly. Constant even pressure is important to keep the score line continuous with no missing spots. The candle and ice method works well to separate the glass. Don't put the bottle directly into the flame and be patient - slowly heat bottle. Watch the youtube tutorial, it was very helpful. |

Pros : None
|
Cons : This cutter is difficult to use. I could not get a bottle to break properly. In addition, it was very messy, since the candle leaves black residue on the glass.

Pros : None, this is junk.
|
Cons : Very poorly constructed, does not make even score lines, bottle neck does not help. After two weeks and 200 bottles, I would like a refund.
|
| Other Thoughts : Don't waste your money. |

Pros : I worked with this bottle cutter for several weeks. It does score the bottles.
|
Cons : However, the scores are uneven and I never was able to make an acceptable score. I called support many times and checked through you tube and other videos for help. I never was able to find anything to help me achieve acceptable results.
|
| Other Thoughts : To me, not worth the time or money. |
| Not happy |

Pros : It does score the bottle.
|
Cons : It is very hard to adjust. It is hard to control. None of my hardware will stay tightened so I get a lot of slippage on my score lines. A ruler on it would sure be nice and a better way to cut the necks would be too. I enjoy cutting bottles but I would not recommend this cutter to my worst enemy. I am looking for a better cutter.

Pros : I was a little intimidated by the instructions, though being a seasoned glass cutter for stained and fused glass. Followed the easy directions and had my first wine bottle cut in no time. Just take a little patience, may take a few passes with candle and ice, but not long and you will have your pieces cut! love it!!

Cons : none

| this does not "cut" anything |

Pros : fairly inexpensive.. simple
|
Cons : Be aware, this does not actually cut anything, it is just to "score" the surface, then you have heat the glass, cool the glass and pray to god it will break somewhat evenly. It does not work on smaller bottles, such as beer bottles. the blades are already wobbling and dull, and I've used it about 6 times. your hands will hurt after trying to score the glass just one time, and you'll spend forever trying to polish down the choppy cut that you end up getting. cannot score angles and cannot work for smaller diameters, also, the length adjustment is not adjustable enough.

Pros : very study, and easy to score the bottle. If you are only looking to cut off the neck of the bottle and create unique glassware out of the base, this tool will work fine.
|
Cons : I was looking to make 2 or more cuts in a bottle, and make glass slices. This tool did not allow me the flexibility to cut slices from the neck of the bottle.
