Ask around among your friends to see if anyone has one and ask to try it.
I have the Studio - used - and love it. My one complaint is that some of the dyes for the Studio are so heavy that they are difficult to handle.
All of the dyes are expensive, but you can buy them for 40% off when Accuquilt runs sales. Also take a look at sizzix and other brands of dye cutters. I haven't tried any of them, so can't comment on them.
