I love mine. When I want dies, I do an internet search and I almost always find them at a great discount. I like that many of the dies are designed to make your piecing easier (dog ears cut off already, etc.). I am now making quilts like the drunkards path, that I had avoided because I didn't want to cut out the pieces. Do a search for Ebony Love. She has experience with many cutters and even has a book.
