Big Shot Switch Plus Starter Kit by Tim Holtz (9")

I couldn't wait to review this wonderful machine. I saved up to purchase it. It was a little expensive, but well worth the cost. Size wise the cutting plate is approx 9 x 12 inches, which lets you cut 6 or more dies at once. A dream come true. The system seems very durable and made from high quality materials. It is a bit heavy, high quality materials again. The best reason I love this machine, no handle cranking!! If you are thinking about purchasing the big shot plus, all I can say is you will be happy you did. I highly, highly recommend going for it.

Love this machine!!! The ease of die cutting is worth the purchase. No more tired hand or cramps from cranking.

Has auto sensor for plate entry/exit, nice. Works great

It only lasted a year and a half. Would not recommend this purchase.

Love this saves my hand and I can cut more So much space for many other dies

I like this for my craftroom but it did bother me that it had been returned and had damage in the cutting boards. I may never memorize what cutting boards to use (for metal die cutters or bossing folders etc) but the cutting boards have easy to follow guidance so I don’t worry about that.

I LOVE THIS MACHINE! It cuts quickly, embosses beautifully without any trouble. It is fun to use it, I can literally cut or emboss 5 cards in less time than it used to take me to do one on my hand crank machines. Yes, this is replacing 2 previous machines. It was on sale and I would have bought it at full price if I had known how much easier it has made my life.

Easy to operate. Good, clean cuts

Decided on ordering the big shot because my hands are strong enough to use the manual embosser. These plates are much bigger than expected and you can fit so many pieces on one cut it’s great ! The plates get marked up after you use them but they all do. The power is very strong and it’s scary when you hear crackling noises. lol. It embossed great and cuts great. It has an automatic fed which works amazing. The machine itself it’s that big so you can easily store it but it is very heavy ! To me. lol. Wish I would have bought it sooner !

Great machine.

Excellente machine, elle fonctionne vraiment bien. Elle a durée seulement deux ans alors je suis déçue pour le prix qu’elle vaut.

Like it

These was a great machine, I don’t know what happened, I used the sandwich according to instructions. There just is no pressure to cut anything, so disappointing. I hope they can help me get this fixed, it’s not even a year old
