Quilters' hubbys are the best!
 
Last Christmas my hubby bought me the GO with more dies than I will ever be able to use in this lifetime....but I will have fun trying. I wondered how long a GO would hold up.....5 years is pretty good! So glad your hubby got you a new one....and yes as quilters we always like to have a "spare" just in case!

That's the best kind of sneaky!

I would have bought the big shot too, they are much more sturdy

Mr Sneaky wouldn't even know what the BIG SHOT was for a quilter... IM just very elated he was thoughtful enough to surprise me with a new GO.. and thanks to him I will have TWO !! yay

My cousin has the Big Shot, she scrapbooks. Her's broke last month and it's newer then my Go. One thing about Accuquilt, all the dies are made with quilts in mind. It would be ideal to use all the die cut machines before deciding but that is almost impossible.

Get a Sizzix Big Shot. They're supposedly much sturdier than the Go when it comes to the handles. At least I've read that's an issue with the Go. Good luck :)
