Just as important as the cutter and surface you are using is the mat. A good self healing mat makes a world of difference in how your cutter cuts. I prefer the Olfa mats and with care will last for years. I have that Fiskars cutter among several others. I love my Olfa 60mm with self closing blade. I also have the Martelli 45mm and like it equally as well. Find a good solid surface, table, counter top, small fold up craft table or whatever suits your space. It will make your quilting a much more enjoyable experience. I will also include this link to mat care.
