I have had one for probably 4 or 5 years. I now have the GO Big and I don't think I could live without it. I absolutely love the appliqué dies using the machine embroidery designs. I also love the strip dies. I use them for bindings, sashings, and borders. I also use them for cutting squares for 4 and 9 patch blocks. I love, love, love the block ones I.e., the Hunter's Star, drunkard's path, etc. It is wonderful how all the pieces fit together with these block dies. I have wanted to make a Hunter's Star quilt for a long time but never had the gumption to cut out all those little pieces until I got my GO. It is so easy and so quick with the GO.

Im sorry to say that I bought mine last summer and it's still in the box....It has two dies and I finally decided to sell it...I have rhuematoid arthritis and when I bought my sewing machine, the salesperson kinda talked me into the acquiltquilt...was expensive for me and I wish I hadn't bought it.....

Why didn't you try it? A few guild members have rheumatoid arthritis and depend on the Go for their cutting. They praise the Go all the time.

I have the Accuquilt Go and I do like it. I will not say it's always the easiest thing to use. I like it with small scraps of fabric the best. I find that when I am cutting large strips of fabric on the 2 1/2" strip cutter, I first have to cut the size first and then put it through the strips. It's nice but sometimes I just prefer my June Taylor cutting ruler. I think people who like to make unusual shapes would prefer using this.

I think they have a lot of choices. 18 pages of quilting and applique dies here: http://www.sizzix.com/catalog?crumb=...7&type=product

I fan fold a yard of fabric on the strip die. No pre cutting required. Very little waste.

Here is how to cut perfect bias binding using the strip die.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BplykP9p_OE

I just had my first experience using one in Kimberly Einmo's appliqué class in April but haven't made the plunge. I didn't see any negative feedback... What about the price?

Unless you are going for the electric Go Big, I recommend getting a sizzlx Big Shot Pro as you can use both go dies and sizzlx dies. You can even use accuquilt studio dies. And the Go and Big Shot Pro are about comparable in price.

I've had mine since they first came out and hardly ever use it. I think the most use I've gotten out of it was cutting 300 hearts out of white fabric for my son's wedding and 150 butterflies for the same. Since then it's sat on the floor not doing anything.

I love mine and have made a point to purchase coordinating dies.
