Sizzix 655268 Big Shot Cutting and Embossing Roller Style Machine




The stylish black-and-pink Big Shot works with the entire Sizzix product library, including the biggest and smallest dies and most exciting techniques. If that isn’t big enough, this ultimate roller machine cuts everything from cardstock to fabric, and many things in between. Now that’s a big deal. Included with the Big Shot are a pair of Standard Cutting Pads and the Multi-Purpose Platform, which makes all Sizzix components compatible with the Big Shot Machine, and even works with other brands’ dies and embossing tools! The Big Shot Machine measures approximately 14.25″ x 8.5″ x 6.5″.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Big Capabilities with the Big Shot
I have been using the Big Shot for a few weeks now and LOVE it! It works very well with Sizzix products but I have also used it with Cuttlebug and QuicKutz as well as brass stencils which I previously owned. I have found Spellbinders Nestabilities dies to work well in the Big Shot for both cutting and embossing. Be sure to buy the tan embossing pads if you plan to use these and you will have no problems. You get a lot more for your money buying the Nestabilities with greater choices and graduated sizes vs. individual dies. And they are so much easier to store.

5 Stars Very happy with this purchase
I just received my Big Shot today and I’ve already tried it out with the Cuttlebug embossing folders and I LOVE IT!!!! I sold my Cuttlebug to buy this and I have to say it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. It is heavier, but I never take any of machines to crops so that doesn’t bother me. I think it’s better quality and I think that the Big Shot does so much more. It’s universal for all die cuts and embossing folders. I found it easier to turn than the Cuttlebug and I like the variety of things that you can use with the Big shot, fabric, heavy chipboard, etc. It’s a great purchase and I think everyone will be happy with it.

5 Stars Big Shot Machine
I like the Big Shot much better than the Wizard I had, the cranking is easier than the ratcheting. I also had a Cuttlebug (it broke and was sent in for repair when I purchased this) I do think I like the Cuttlebug better as the platform being locked in is a little annoying but it is built a little better than the cuttlebug and Amazon’s price is reasonable.

All in all, I’m glad I have it…one can never have to many die cut machines especially when they do break (I think I’m freakishly strong) as I have broke 2 now.

5 Stars Love my Big Shot
The Big Shot does everything it is supposed to do and more. I love it.

5 Stars really nice machine
