    I ordered one a couple of days ago from joann's, and am waiting for its arrival. $199, +tax & shipping, minus the $150 joann's gift certificate from my son! (I love that boy) Really looking forward to having a new toy. :-)

    Agreed! I am a novice and love sewing but hated cutting. I did not know the difference between a baby, go , or studio. I got my studio when was on sale at Accuquilt. I love it. I have the rag dies, 2 1/2 inch strip cutter and a starter set that makes 12 1/2 inch blocks. Is an investment but worth it!

    Overstock.com had the Go at their auction for $89. You may want to check that out. It's always listed at that starting price.

    I'm a distributor for the Go cutter and I just used mine to cut all 2 1/2 inch strips for a kings size Irish Chain quilt for a customer and love it. It cuts accurate and no worries about getting a v in your cuts if it isn't laying just right. Cutting time is cut more than half.

    Adpater for the studio - with this adpater you can use sizzix dies.

    No, the studio dies are thicker so they won't go thru the Go. You can get a platform for the studio and use the go dies in the studio, except for the long strip cutters. Haven't had success with those, but all the smaller ones work just fine.
