I have one. I really like it but I've only used it a couple times. I've bought a few dies on sale for future projects.

I have one and I have also purchased two other dies . I use mine for cutting scraps up into usable sizes and shapes. I also use it to cut hexagons for my gfg quilt that I'm making. I like mine a lot.

I have the studio model. I bought more dies and use it all the time. It cuts strips quickly and easily, and the triangle dies work well.

If you decide to buy more dies, I suggest a strip die or two and perhaps a triangle die in a size of triangle that you use often.

I'm a newbie quilter and haven't used it that much yet. I bought a 5" square and a 2 1/2 inch strip die. I'm very pleased. I find that my cuts are more accurate. (It doesn't slide like my ruler.)

A while back, I read where someone was making squares, strips and triangles from her scraps. She picked the sizes that work together. 2 - 3" squares make 5" once sewn together. She had the whole list of sizes that she made. It made me decide that I would do the same with the dies I buy.

Look on ebay or craigslist for additional dyes. They are much cheaper there. Just a suggestion.

I have an Accuquilt Go and my DH gave me the Go Big Electric for Christmas. I love them! My favorite die is certainly the 2 1/2" strip cutter! My family has been great about getting me dies for holidays. I personally wait for sales. Love my applique dies for mug rugs and raw edge work on wall hangings!
