Product Description

With a swirl of powder blue-and-teal colors and the Sizzix logo bursting out brightly, this 'classic' version of the Big Shot machine offers plenty of stylish appeal with the same versatility of working with the entire Sizzix product library (with the exception of Big Pro dies) - which includes our smallest dies to our big 6" wide plastic-backed treasures and embossing tools. If that wasn't big enough, this portable roller machine cuts and embosses many different materials. Create your own one-of-a-kind cards, invitations, scrapbook pages, home decor, fashion, altered art, quilting and much more. (To ensure compatibility, always check machine and accessory requirements. Machine accessories may be sold separately.) Included with the new Big Shot are a pair of Standard Cutting Pads and the adjustable Extended Multipurpose Platform, which gives you more access to more creative options than ever. Use the extended platform and gain instant compatibility to the entire library of Sizzix embossing tools and non-steel-rule dies, including Sizzles Decorative Strip dies. And because of its extended size, the new platform offers more area to create multiple projects at once. It makes all makes all Sizzix components thinner than a Big Die compatible with the Big Shot and even works with other brands' dies and embossing tools. The diagrams on the Extended Multipurpose Platform offer easy guidelines about how to make the perfect Sizzix sandwich. For the newest Big Shot model available, check out our White & Gray model. Measures approximately 14 1/4" x 12 3/8" x 6 5/8" and features a 3-year limited warranty. Construction: Solid core steel rollers, anybody cast roller housing, solid steel gears, ABS plastic exterior. With the Sizzix Big Shot, the only limit is your own imagination - now that's a big deal, even for a Big Shot.

5.0 out of 5 stars SUPERIOR MACHINE & A GREAT VALUE
Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2015

I own a Cuttlebug and didn't know how much I've been struggling with it for since I bought it. This little beauty opened my eyes. My Big Shot is much more stable because of the open platform and makes it much easier on my shoulder. I have a bad shoulder and it was such a chore to get a sandwich through my cuttlebug. Putting a sandwich through my Big Shot is so easy. The multi-purpose platform makes it easy to emboss or cut with just the right thickness for each job, and the sandwich runs through so easily and does a superior job.

I wish someone had told me what a great machine the Big Shot is before I bought my Cuttlebug. Aside from being much easier to use, here on Amazon the Big Shot with multi-purpose platform is almost half the cost of what I paid for my decorative Cuttlebug on HSN. You can, however, get a plain blue or green Cuttlebug at Cricut.com for around $50-60 on sale. For a few more dollars you can get the Big Shot and on Amazon, the shipping is free. As a BONUS, the Big Shot is BEAUTIFUL!!!!

NOTE: The multi-purpose platform is all you need to get started using your Big Shot. It will emboss with most folders, and cut most dies right out of the box.

Wow, am I having fun with this! I am new to card-making and started out with the Sizzix Texture Boutique but quickly outgrew it. The Big Shot is perfect for my needs. I can make cards, signs, tags, labels, etc. and it works with all my embossing folders, from multiple manufacturers, and all my cutting dies, also from multiple manufacturers; you just need to make sure that one of the embossing folder dimensions is six inches or less in width. The Extended Multipurpose Platform works great for all my embossing needs but for die cutting I ended up buying the Magnetic Platform to hold the cutting dies as this gives the little bit of extra hold needed to perfectly place the dies. I appreciate that the Extended Multipurpose Platform has pictorial instructions (as does the Magnetic Platform) which makes it easy to use. And I love the color - so pretty! I highly recommend the Big Shot - but beware - you'll turn into a card-making addict!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Machine and Better Price!
Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2013

I attend a card making class each month and they have the Pink and Black Big Shot. After using it a few times, I had fallen in Love :)

The teal Big Shot is the same so if you have used the Black and Pink you will like this one too.

- it is heavy and has rubber feet which is nice so it doesn't slide everywhere when you are trying to emboss/die cut
- rubber on the handle and the handle so that you have a good grip and you can use it with the handle on the right or left!
- the extended platform is a nice perk, it would have been nicer if the cutting plates were extended too, but not a huge issue for me.

The biggest deal was the price, Amazon had it on for $70 with free shipping. Regular price is $120 for this one and the Black and Pink is $150+.

The only thing that would have been better is if they had included a set of basic dies and maybe an embossing folder so you don't have to wait to try it. I only have 2 embossing folders, so I have more buying to do!

5.0 out of 5 stars While the cuttlebug is a good machine and I've used it for years
Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2015
Verified Purchase
I searched a lot of the reviews to find comparisons of the Big shot and cuttlebug because I was having problems getting my cuttlebug to cut the spellbinders dies. While the CB did cut them ( with tons of multiple passes) the suction came loose right away so it moved all over the place with every VERY HARD turn of it's 'small' handle. I was actually sweating and almost out of breath by the time it was finished cutting! While the cuttlebug is a good machine and I've used it for years, I have to say that the Big Shot is much better.simply because it's more sturdy and because the handle is larger It's MUCH easier to turn it, so the entire experience is so much easier than the CB. And in the Big Shot those Spellbinders Dies cut the first time! The only thing I really don't like about the Big Shot is when you open the tabs on the multipurpose platform it's so long that you have to find the right place to use the machine. I wish the tabs were separate. And just one more thing--a metal shim is very helpful in both machines.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love my new Sizzix!

I decided to switch from Cuttlebug to Sizzix and I am soooo happy!
The extended platform is so nice and the machine so sturdy! I can even say that it embosses better than the Cuttlebug with my Fiskars plates.
I can use my Cuttlebug C plate instead of the impression pad!
So, I love my new Sizzix!
Update:
I have had this machine for more than a year now and I am as satisfied as the first day!
I have embosed copy paper, cardstock, vellum, copper and aluminum.
If you are going to use Spellbienders embossing folders you need to create your own shim. Spellbinders embossing folders are awesome but they have a very special thickness (they are thicker than Sizzix, Cuttlebug, Darice or Paper Studio).
I still have my Cuttlebug, but I prefer to use my Sizzix because it is much more stable that my Cuttlebug. The main two reasons for me to like this over the Cuttlebug are the longer platform and the stability.
As for the instructions, you can go to Youtube and you are going to find a lot of videos lo learn a lot of things. And the extended platform states very clearly, when you need to use each one of the different parts of it.

This was a great addition to my craft room. I held off on getting it for awhile because I have a cricut machine and I thought I could cut just about everything with it, but boy was I wrong. I won't get sidetracked and start reviewing the cricut I will just say: the big shot is very easy to use, it cuts sharp, crisp cuts, the items you can make are impressive and many dies even from other companies are able to be used in it. I did not give it 5 stars because the machine and the metal dies are expensive. On the flip side of that they are metal, durable and you will only need to buy them once. The things you can cut with the big shot most cannot be cut with the cricut. It's expensive but it's worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST MACHINE EVER!!!!!!
Reviewed in Canada on May 11, 2014

I bought the Big Shot about a month ago. I have to say first off I was using a Cuttle bug before. The Cuttle bug nearly destroyed my shoulder. I just could not use it anymore. I found it very aggravating that the bed of the machine was only 2 small flaps that were way to small. It moves all over the place when your trying to hold it down. The Big Shot stays where you put it, it does not walk off the table, is so sturdy. The quality is like night and day compared to what I had before.You need too many hands at once to use the Cuttle Bug not enough space for cutting either. It cracks very easy I have fixed and glued it at least 4 times. I bought the Big Shot and have never looked back this machine is so easy to use, even for me. It is smooth to use a lot of different mediums can be put through it. It is a tough machine I simply love it a lot. My shoulder appreciates it also. So if you are looking for a well priced machine that really works well, this is the one. When this one wears out which I doubt, I will buy another one. It is well worth the money.

I love this machine. It cuts so accurately and gives a really clean cut. So far I have used thin materia' and felt with it. The next thing will be leather. My hubby questions the cutting of boardwith it and I wish the instructions gave what thickness to use but I am sure I will sort it out. Overall I cannot fault the machine. It is so easy to use and will take many different dies.Excellent!!!! I would highly recommend!!!
