Another brand to consider is the Fiskar Fuse. It has a 12" width. It accommodates many brands of dies, including the accuquilt dies, and the bigz dies. Also Spellbinders and Sizzix dies.
They're often on sale at Jo-ann's for $99.
The Fiskar dies are worthless. Don't waste your money on those. But the machine itself is wonderful. I love the 12" width, which accommodates the larger scrapbook papers.
