I bought the June Taylor (20?) years ago when it first came out. I use it so much it is practically worn out. But I love it. I use to use it to make quilts.....now I use my accuquilt die cutter, but I still use my June Taylor to chop up any extra leftover fabric into strips for storage to make strip scrap quilts. When it dies, I'll consider another brand. Thanks for the info on the other brands.
