Small but powerful - Punching

Overall, the sidekick works as promised. It sticks really well to my desk and the grip worked without much resistance. It's even smaller than I expected and will hold up well. Everything was in the box, postage and stamps in good condition. But if you expect originality then I would like to warn you that the box I had was quite dirty and a little chipped. And the plates came quite worn but obviously not used before otherwise we would have seen crystal imprints. However, a strange impression is…

Pros
  • Punching
Cons
  • Sad Hardware

DOES NOT MATCH DESCRIPTION: Punching machines

NOTHING. If I could give no stars I would. When I got it I paid $12 for it and all I got was an embossed folder when they said everything was included. Think qlot if the reviews were fake. Remember the saying "If it's too good to be true, it probably is true," it's so true

Pros
  • MULTIPLE MATERIALS. The Sidekick cuts a sheet of lightweight card stock and is ideal for scrapbooking, card making, home decor and event planning
Cons
  • Some bugs

Ideal for small stamps

If you rarely cut or only use small dies, this is the type for you. If you like something portable and easy to use, this is for you too. It's not something you want to cut a lot on, and for punchers it's the cheapest I've been able to find.

Pros
  • PORTABLE is the ideal portable machine for creative papermaking projects on the go, for DIYers from beginners to professionals.
Cons
  • So far so good

Nearly perfect. the best in scrapbooking and stamping

I love this car. I have a mini caster die cutter but it doesn't have as much power as this one and some of the plates on this machine are not interchangeable. I find it much better in almost every way. Only one small thing could be improved. The cutting inserts are very short. For example, I may have a die that fits the width of a mini machine, but if the panels are only 4-5 inches long, my die can't be any longer. I have a lot of thin borders and word dies about 6 inches long that I can't cut…

Pros
  • MACHINE INCLUDED - complete starter kit See Product Description below for listed items.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
