I have a studio and go love them!

I don't have one. May get one some day. From what I've read on here (over time) from people who do have they I certainly wouldn't say they have 'flopped'.

I have a GO and I am very happy with it.

I have TWO die cutters and love them both. Big Shot and Big Shot Pro. Not sure what the question is-I know lots of people that have die cutters and dies. My sister has the Accuquilt Go.

As far as waste, I do waste a little bit rotary cutting. I have weak wrists and sometimes the cutter or the ruler slips.

I have the go cutter. I love it also. Especially the 5 inch die. So many patterns to use with charms.

I just bought a GO! cutter and will be using it with a group of children we are teaching to quilt.

This has been my experience also. I have the Go Baby and love it.

I have a GO and I love it. I don't use it as much as I thought I would, but it is there when I need it.

I got the AccuQuiltGo when it first came out. Since then I have bought a nice number of useful dies for it. I can cut up to six layers of cotton fabric. A real timesaver and easy on my hands! No regrets at all.

I have the sizzix big shot( left over from my stamping days) I mainly use it to cut flower shapes for applique and circles of fleece for the hair clips and pins I make for craft fairs. I purchased a Dresden flower die 3 years ago, but haven't used it yet. It's on my to do list.
