Used foam cutter for 40+ min, now it won't cut and wire is red & soft — looks like it's melting. What do I do?

Our cutter’s operating temperature range must be under 150℃. Preheat 5-10 secs for best temp. Let it rest after 30 mins of use. Otherwise, the wire may turn red and soft, looking like it's melting and won't work.

Foam cutter glows red right after setup — is this a design defect?

To prevent overheating or melting, please install the foam cutter exactly as shown in our instructions.

Works fine on regular foam, but won't cut rigid plastic at all — is the cutter defective or just not made for that?

Our cutter kit can only be used to cut low-density foam; it is not suitable for batch cutting or very high-density material.

Died during the first use

I used my friend’s wire cutter for days and decided to buy one. Now I’m sorry I chose this brand. It died during the first use. The plastic of the handle of the 17cm cutting pen melted. When it got cool it stopped working for good. I wish they could just send me a new long wire pen. I really need one.

It sort of works

I need it to make props for the theatre, so I'm cutting a lot of foam. Maybe I'm impatient, but sometimes it's easier to cut foam with a bread knife, although that doesn't work for fine detail work.

Great crafting tool!

Bought this for crafting with foam. The set has rigid tips, but the wire is the best top to use. Very satisfying to use!
