I have, love it, would not trade it for anything I got mine at JoAnns at when they had it on special for $200. After my machines, that is the best purchase I ever made. I own only the basic blocks - squares, triangles, strs and circles and I cut the entire quilt in no time at all. All pieces are the same and they fit together perfectly. One advice, cut all your fabric lengthwise since it does not stretch.

I finally bought one because, in my old age(!), I'm finding it hard to cut correctly. It's really a dream to use. The dies are expensive, so if that's an issue you need to think about which ones you'd use the most. My biggest cutting problem is strips, so I definitely have those dies. But I did go kind of crazy and start to hoard a lot of the other dies too.

My last couple quilts were made with pieces where I couldn't use the GO. So it doesn't cover every size or shape! Bummer.

I love mine! Good investment, but be careful and don't go crazy and buy too many dies that you may not use. That's what I did.

Just got back from Joann's. They have the AccuQuilt Go on sale right now for $249.99.
I also checked out the Fiskars Fuse that Nanax4 suggested. I checked the measurements and all. The Fiskar Fuse can be used for crafting and scrapbooking as well. Double plus.
I have opted for the Fiskars Fuse. I also got the adapter kit. I feel like I hit the lottery today. The Fiskars Fuse was on sale for $69.99, the adapter kit was on sale for $49.99. That was a huge savings. So I bought a dye kit for $29.99 and some cutting mats for $9.99. I still saved money. Total without tax was $159.96. Yeah!
I asked the manager if it didn't work could I bring it back and get the AccuQuilt Go if it did not do what I wanted it to do. Sure no problem just bring in your receipt.
Now off to play.



luvTooQuilt thank you for the tips. And everyone else for their input. You all are great!

Wow Kani, that sounds great! I'm not sure my local Joann's carries the Fuse, I will have to go look. I definitely like a tool/toy that can be used for multiple purposes and sounds like Fiskars tried to make that Fuse really multipurpose.

I have the Go. I have had the Big Shot Pro and used the Brother Scan and Cut, some of the Sizzix ones and the Voyager electric. I use the Go. No fuss, no hassle, just beautiful cuts every time.

I love love love my Go! But now with the new price policy, I don't buy dies like I used to. Unfortunately, their shipping is high IMO (unless you spend over 99.00, then it's free). I no longer just order a single die I want at sites with sales and/or reasonable shipping. Now I wait until I need enough dies to get the free shipping while accuquilt is having a sale. Their new price policy has def made it so I will buy less often. Guess I'm cheap! Ha! But I would recommend it. It really is great!

I have about a dozen dies I've never opened the package. That's okay with me. I know I will use them when the time comes I want to make the pattern. I usually buy all the new dies that come out, many become discontinued and the price triples on Ebay.

I think you did great! I had thought about doing the same thing when I wanted a bigger setup than my Baby Go. If you check on Amazon, you will see that the Fuse is currently selling for about $150! The reviews for it are also good. Give yourself a pat on the back. :-)

I love mine and use it especially for strip cutting, but I have many dies that I,m planning certain things for.
I don't think you would be sorry. It is cheaper now than when I bought mine three years ago.
