    I have the Donna Dewberry one, but I think my cuts are more accurate with my June Tailor slotted ruler.

    I have one, but I don't really like it. I have used it a few times, but I found that I had to use a lot of strenght to get it to work right. When I found June Tailor's Shape Plus ruler, I use that all the time instead.

    I have the original Fiskars, found one shortly after they had been discontinued. I use it frequently, like it a lot. It doesn't slip when I use it. Often I only fold my fabric once and cut through two layers rather than four and avoid that "elbow" in the fold. If I want to double-fold the fabric I use the June Tailor Shape Plus ruler.

    I have one of these and use it when rotary cutting quite often.

    I just don't understand why rulers are so expensive .. I love new gadgets too, but this is one I will pass on.
