Fletcher and C&H make professional level mat cutters that you will see customer framers using. You have to look at your quanity and the value of your time. You can find used versions of these mat cutters here:

However, if you can afford an extra $100 you will find that the Fletcher is truly a professional cutter. It is extremely accurate (I can set it to within a 1/16") and makes a clean cut. With a little practice you will not get any overcuts or undercuts. I find that I can cut mats quickly and accurately. If you do more than just the occasional mat then consider the investment. I would take a used 2100 over any Logan product any day.
