I love the Sizzix, no problems. I bought it because they started making the quilting dies for Jenny Doan's projects, of Missouri Star Quilt Company and I am a huge fan. Friends that have Accuquilt also bought the Sizzix for the quilting dies & were impressed with the lower cost and large variety of quilting dies.
Accuquilt dies can also be used on the Sizzix, so I did buy a couple of them when I saw a sale at Quilt in a Day site, haven't had a chance to use them though.
