If it feels wobbly you haven't got your wrist positioned right, the blade should roll as steady as Olfa or fiskers

[h=3]TrueCut rotary cutter. I cut for hours with no hand fatigue. Was given to me as a gift after my DH heard me complaining... Got at Hobby Lobby.

Alex Anderson just created a new rotary cutter and mats. The cutter is easy change out blades, has a little weight to it, easy on the hands and made for left and right handers. The cutting mats have the numbers going in both directions on all sides, they are two sided, one is light and the other is dark. she also has the plastic rulers that cling to the fabric so you can make a cut and like if you are doing a small block, you just turn the ruler and the fabric will turn too. Also has numbers going in both directions so that you don't have to worry if you have it going 1 to 6 or 6 to 1, it shows both. I'm going to look for it at the Hampton Roads Quilt show that comes in Feb.
