I love my Alto Cut. I have a paralyzed Left hand and found being able to hold the fabric down under the bar and place my hand on ruler I can use rotary cutter to cut fabric. To keep ruler from sliding I put little grippee pieces on the bottom. It works for some but now that I have found the Accuquilt GO I am a happy camper. Some of the older quilters also don't like to change the way they have been doing things over years.
