Default strip cutting machine?

Has anyone tried the Symplicity rotary cutting machine and do you like it?

There was another thread about this same topic yesterday. If you use the search engine you will find a bunch of threads on the topic.

With that said, I have heard really bad reviews on this cutter. The fabric doesn't feed straight to cut the fabric straight.

i understand it takes a lot of practice and skill to feed the fabric thru the machine to get accurate cuts.

Don't bother. I've been through 2 of them and neither worked for me.

I was told to either starch or Best Press the material first and then all will go well.
