Fiskars Tabletop Seam Ripper, White, 7.25 x 3.75 x 1.38

The media could not be loaded. I ordered this to more easily manage ripping the seams on quilted pieces and it works beautifully! I do feel the suction cup could be a bit stronger but that is also why I specify that it's great for light seam ripping. The cloth on my photos is a tank top and it worked well but I would not (as one user mentioned) count on it to use for heavier fabrics or clothing like denim/ jeans.I recommend using it oriented the same way as in my video, with the ripper pointing away from you. If you turn it towards you it isn't as easy to see what's coming up, whereas turned away you can see the individual strands of threads. With the seam ends facing up so you can hold it away and to the sides, you won't snag that cloth on the bottom point of the ripper. I would suggest adding a bit of water to the suction cup in order to get it to stick. I couldn't get mine to stay without that step.Be. Very. Careful. The ripper is very sharp and can easily rip a hole into cloth. There is a protective cap that tucks away snugly underneath the level to tighten the suction cup. All in all it cut down on the time I normally would have spent dismantling the tank top and it definitely is a breeze to use on quilted squares.All in all an awesome little seam ripper!

This product works on smooth surfaces and to get it to stick I push the rubber bottom in and then stick on your table, otherwise it pops off the table.

First off let me say i was excited for it to come! I mean its a friskars...it just had to be the tool i much needed!Otherwise my husband has always had to be my 3rd and 4th hands whenever i had to seam rip.Once I got it I was very quickly dissappointed! It did not work like I hoped!You only have 1" of work space from the table surface and the seam ripper NOT even enough working space!I had to put it pointing toward me off the edge of counter but it doesnt work...the seam ripper for me they installed it upside down!I had my husband pull out the seam ripper and turn it 180°!You can see in my pic seam ripper is not on the way it came it is turned!!!!!!Using it off the edge of counter isnt so bad since i have room to work with my fabric but cant get the thing to stay suctioned to any desk or counter surface so it is just useless!!!!!!Do not waste your money!!!!!!A very big disappointment!!!!!!______________________________***They need to go back to the drawing board and remake it!!!!!!***Needs to be alot taller from table top so you have room to work!***Needs to be able to be able to flip 180° up or down choice of the seam ripper!***Needs to stay put!!!!!!

Love it.

If you’re thinking about this, I think it’s great. I suction cup it to my machine and I can hold both sides of my seam and unsew it quickly. Huge time saver. I have not ripped any of my frabric, which was my concern. Very happy with it. I recommend it highly.

Still trying to figure this thing out. From my research, I’ve been using a seam ripper incorrectly…..

This solves a real problem. Trying to hold and separate the two fabric sides with one hand while guiding the cutter with the other is super difficult. This device makes it very easy. You do need a smooth surface like a glass oven top for instance. I think I'll clamp a small plate of smooth metal to my sewing table. A person could make a clamp mounted version of this, but that would be more difficult than just attaching a smooth plate to the table. The plate needs to be held still, of course, while you're pushing the fabric against this tool.

i really like the idea behind this design. it doesn't stick well to a table. And even if it did it's not easy to seam rip. For me to use it I have to hold it against me and pull the fabric stitches through. hopefully the design will improve.
