I got mine when it first came out. I bought the starter set dies, the tumbler die, the hexagon die, the 2 1/2 strip cutter, and several more. I use it for 95% of my cutting. I like it because the cuts are exactly alike and the dog ears are cut off. I use the Tumbler die more than I thought I would. I cut four layer at at time but some cut 6. I find four is easier for me. I have very little waste, mostly thin strips. I cut and fold the fabric to fit the blades, not the die. I love to cut my scraps into pre cut pieces. I starch and press my fabric before cutting. I thought about getting the Studio model. It cost more and takes a lot of room but now that I know what the Go will do, the Studio model is one step up. I'm very pleased with the Go and would buy it again. I'm sure other companies will be making their on version of the Go soon so the price will come down some. For the quality of the machine it can't be too inexpensive or it will be a piece of junk.
