I adore mine. I have 3 strip sizes. I cut the fabric 8 1/2 and then run it through the machine. It leaves small strips about 1/4 on both sides. I have lots of uses for those narrow strips. I put 3 chunks down if the fabric is on the thin side. 2 sections if it is thick.
I use the 2 1/2 the most on every single quilts for binding.
