I love mine! I bought all of the BASIC dies and find myself mostly making blocks that are for the dies. I am in a block swap so that comes in handy. It was pretty nice cutting out all my pieces for my nieces kaleidoscope quilt all at once. I DID waste a lot of one color until I realized I was folding to many times and on the double triangle die I was coming out with large corner scraps. When I quit foldin and stacked pieces, then slid them over to get the next set, I wasn't wasting anything but the barest edge.
It does have a learning curve when it comes to making it work for YOU. Your not going to find any really wierd shapes. They are pretty standard so if you are doing a quilt with odd shapes it probably won't do you any good. Like I said, I just choose patterns that I CAN cut with it :)
Be aware that if you decide on a Baby Go that you can only get the skinny dies. The larger ones won't fit it.
