Hand-trimming is a grind. A good bowl trimmer turns a full day of scissors work into a couple of hours — and the Power-Trim 19" Manual is one of the larger, better-built options in this price bracket. With a 47cm stainless steel bowl, thick rubber fingers reinforced with steel-tip ends, and a hand-crank mechanism that keeps material moving without balling up, this is a serious workhorse for home growers and small commercial operations alike. No power required. No fuss. Just turn the handle and watch the leaf disappear.
Specifications
- Do not overload the bowl. Half-full batches trim faster and more evenly than a packed bowl — material needs room to tumble.
- For wet trim (freshly harvested), use the straight blade. For dry trim (cured material), switch to the serrated or wire blade.
- Crank at a steady, moderate pace. Spinning too fast reduces contact time between material and blade, and can stress the gear mechanism.
- Clean blades with isopropyl alcohol after each session. Resin buildup dulls cutting performance quickly.
- Place the trimmer on a non-slip mat above a collection tray to catch leaf falloff — it adds up fast on a big run.
How to Use
Pairs Well With
Hang and dry your freshly trimmed harvest correctly. A quality drying rack with good airflow prevents mould and preserves quality post-trim.
Trimming ScissorsFor touch-up work the bowl can't reach. A sharp pair of trimmers handles awkward angles and finishing detail that a bowl trimmer doesn't do precisely.
Harvest Collection TraysCatch and collect leaf falloff underneath the bowl. Good trays are flat, non-stick, and easy to scrape — essential for keeping your trim area clean.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this trimmer work for both wet and dry trimming?
Yes. The Power-Trim 19" comes with blades suited to both wet and dry material. Use the straight blade for freshly harvested (wet) material and the wire or serrated blade for dried plant matter. Wet trim generally produces a cleaner result; dry trim is more forgiving on timing.
How much material can I process at once?
No hard weight figure is specified by the manufacturer, but the general rule for any 19" bowl trimmer is to load it half-full — not packed. Half-batches move freely and trim more evenly than an overloaded bowl. This trimmer is best suited to small-to-medium home grows and small commercial runs, not high-volume commercial throughput.
What makes the steel-tip rubber fingers better than standard rubber fingers?
The steel-tip reinforcement at the end of each finger adds rigidity at the point of contact. This means material is guided more firmly into the blade zone rather than being pushed around loosely. It reduces balling up — where material clumps in the centre and stops moving — which is one of the most common complaints with cheaper bowl trimmers that use plain rubber fingers throughout.
Is this easy to clean?
Yes. The grill and blade are both removable, and the stainless steel bowl wipes down well with isopropyl alcohol. The clear acrylic dome should be wiped gently to avoid scratching. After wet trim sessions especially, clean immediately — resin sets fast on stainless steel and is significantly harder to remove once dried.
Do I need electricity to operate this trimmer?
No. This is a fully manual, hand-crank trimmer. There is no motor and no power connection required. If you want a motorised version for faster throughput on larger volumes, Power-Trim also makes a 19" motorised model — ask us if you need help deciding which suits your setup.
Is this trimmer suitable for large commercial operations?
Not really. This trimmer is a strong choice for home growers and small operations, but manual operation limits throughput on high-volume commercial runs. For larger commercial harvest volumes, you would be better served by the 19" motorised version or stepping up to a 24" electric trimmer.
