Simply feed your sandwich through your machine by turning the handle and be met with your beautifully cut design on the other side in a matter of seconds. To reveal your die-cut simply take your cutting pads and die away, leaving you with your desired design. If you use an intricate wafer-thin and chemically-etched die, you may wish to use the Sizzix Die Brush or Die Pick to effortlessly remove any excess paper. | Your ProjectSizzix dies are extremely versatile and can be used for a multitude of creative pursuits and making types.

I love that you can use the old dies and thinlets and framelets with this, very versatile, some of the dies are so beautiful I’m obsessed with more and crafts, I can make flowers boxes anything my hearts desires
Simple to use,quick results,great to just experiment different textures,learning something every time I use.
Love my new A4 sizzix. Upgraded from my big shot that I have had for years and STILL use
I love this machine being as it’s A4 size it’s great for making basically anything you need to make. Well worth buying the starter kit , everything you need to get you started.
Although made for larger dies it is also great for lots of small dies at once. Highly recommend.
I’ve only had this cutting machine for just over a week and already cutting plate is so warped it cannot be used. I have had cutting machines before so knew to rotate cutting plate but still they warped beyond use.
Cutting machine itself is excellent it’s a shame the poor quality of cutting plates have let this product dow
I am using this for card making and applique, great produc
I love this machine, so useful in crafting, easy to use, cuts very well, dies are easy to obtain, and there is a great range of them available, was very well used at Christmas.
It quite often misses the middle portion of a die ( even whennot a ‘cheap’ die)….so if A4 die you need to add a shim of paper in the middle strip….as even if you put it through again it still misses a bit of cutting.
A very useful must have machine for card making. I have one myself but bought this one for my granddaughter as she is now learning to craft.
I’m new to card crafts, and have made great use of the sizzix machine.
This machine is great in all aspects except its heavy if you have problems with your wrists then you would have to have someone lift it for you
This is a greater starter bundle, excellent value for money!
Excellent product, durable and easy to use with a range of die thicknesses. Bought whilst on offer so excellent value. I would have paid normal price as my normal size big shot is 11 years old and still looks like new. Excellent quality
Great product from Sizzix as usual. You can’t beat the big shot for die cutting and embossing. Wouldn’t purchase another machine!
Did lot of research re:price & found this to be best value as it included plates as well as machine. I’ve used an A4 Bigshot for years but wanted something more compact. Cuts really well, good clear instructions & footprint neat. Well packaged by friendly Amazon driver so very happy thanks.
My Mum bought this for me, as I’d always wanted the bigger one. I absolutely love it and it’s so easy to use. Make sure you check which Embossing folders are compatible though because the X-Cut ones are too thick to go through the Big Shot. If the folders won’t go through, don’t force them because you’ll break the machine.
Great piece of kit. Love how small and compact it is compared to the unwieldy Big Shot. I’ve bought it primarily for English Paper Piecing with fabric and it works beautifully. I bought some hexagon Bigz dies to cut both paper pieces and fabric and it’s working fantastically for that purpose. I’m not into papercrafting but from what I’ve seen it’s great for that. There aren’t that many Bigz dies available but I’ve got the 2.5 very long strip die, some square dies and so on — all for the purpose of cutting fabric. Really happy with my purchase. The only thing I would say is that the price hike to get a “package’ is a bit irritating. I’d rather have just bought the machine on its own rather than get dies and stuff included that I don’t really want. With the standard Big Shot, you can do that, but with the Foldaway it seems you have to buy it as the Starter Kit only. After I bought my Foldaway from Amazon, I noticed that it was miles cheaper on Craft Stash website — but that’s just the way cookie crumbles, isn’t it. Anyway, I’m always happy with Amazon as a seller and for ease of returns, problems arising etc. so I don’t really mind.
I bought this for my wife, she uses it for card making and crafting. She finds it very useful for her needs. It appears to be well made, easy to use, and produces good results. So far she is very pleased with i
Very pleased with this bundle which I bought to add to other machines that I have as it takes the large Sizzix steel dies.
Good for die cutting only limited by the size of the aperture. The fabric sent with the cutter did not cut as expected. Nice selection of dies for starting out, lots of hints and tips on the internet for using the cutter.
Easy to use and great value for money from this site.
Came with a few dies and embossing folder so you are ready to go.
Only down side is once you have attached the handle it no longer fits back in the box for storage!
Great value for money. I had a big shot express which I inherited from a friend. Recently it gave up when I used a die that seemed too thick…it started smoking!
I really want to buy the new Big Shot Switch which is expected on the market some time soon so bought this Manual Big Shot to fill the gap for now. It does all the jobs my express did. Great machine!
