Has anyone ever used this? Is it worth investing in for cutting fabric? It seem as if it would be a great time saver for cutting, however is it as good as it sounds. :roll:

Like Paper Princess wrote ... lots of info already on the QB.

I still prefer the Alto's QuiltCut2.

My Go is over 3 years old and still works great. New dies just came out! The Ribbon and the Ric Rac die. I have them pre ordered already. Stock up on the die cutting mats on sale as they get worn fast if using the same mat for all cuttings. There is always a sale on Go products somewhere online. You will want the various dies for the Go so take the price of new dies in consideration. The dies are good for hundreds of cuttings. I know my strip die has probably cut over a thousand strips so far and still sharp as new.

I have the Alto Quilt Cut 2. I bought it before the Go was available. It's nice but I still have to use the rotary cutter and line up my fabric just right to get accurate cuts each time.

Love my Go cutter,especially for cutting strips. Accuquilt just came out with several new dies as well. If you go to Accuquilt.com there are manyfree patterns to use with the dies.
Lol on your decision.
