I have used an Olfa deluxe 45mm cutter for years. Because of the angle of the blade, I can easily cut through 4-5 layers of fabric while sitting at my sewing desk (cutter handle is parallel to the work surface). The Framore standard cutter feels heavy and has a much chunkier handle than the Olfa. I am unable to use it while sitting because the handle of the cutter needs to be angled at least 135 degrees in order for the blade to cut properly (cutter handle nearly perpendicular to the work surface). It feels very awkward. I staying with my Olfa deluxe.cutter.
