It is perfect for smaller stamps and does its job perfectly

Small but mighty! I have it on my desktop, takes up very little space and is always there when I need it. It is ideal for small stamps and perfectly copes with even complex ones. Easily portable too!

Compactness is good for card makers as we use small matrices

I got this two days ago and it's a game changer for me! 1. Compactness is good for card makers as we use small stamps! However, do not use background stamps as the hole matches the description! 2. Had serious ear problems with my SIZZIX BIG SHOT PLUS. Plates for this baby are a lot cheaper (remember I use more small stamps than big ones)!3. Small size. Fits in a box! Light! Hope that helps!

  • Alright!

Nice but limited use.

Cute punching machine. But all of them are of limited use. One of them, of course, is the size of the stamps and embossing folders you can use. Second, I think that you can only use thin stamps. Another issue is that while it embosses, I don't see any mini embossing folders for sale - only the ones that come with the kit. I'm not sure, but I think I saw thinner binders with embossed edges a while ago. If they exist, they could be used. Otherwise, it seems fairly limited for embossing. Otherwise

I would buy again! for scrapbooking and stamping

This is amazing! I'm so happy I bought this! I will enjoy this car for a long time. I wanted to buy a small one and try it out before moving on to larger dies and dies. Don't forget that this car is very small. It can be held in one hand. You can only buy very small and thin stamps for him. But even so it is not limited. I bought 2 packs of embossing folders and a set of stamps before I got the machine so I had a bit more work to do. But it's the perfect car for beginners. And it fits well in…

Pros
  • All the best!

Like small size

I had the original red sidekick and loved it for over a decade when Sizzix introduced their updated version which does not require a thin die adapter and can be used with small/narrow dies, I knew I had one needed. Only deterrent is the $40 price tag. A few months later I discovered that Amazon was offering a new white and gray version in a starter kit for $19.65 plus free shipping, Yahoo! I immediately bought one for myself and the other as a gift. I love it as much as "old red". At $20 it's…

  • New
