Yes sure you can buy plates that are slightly cheaper...and last maybe 1 pass in your machine (I wont be making that mistake again), but with these official, you have the backing of the brand, no sliced fingers from the sharp edges and no stab wounds from the nasty corners that cheap plates can seek out to give you. These are beveled along the edges and have wonderfully rounded corners. A pleasure to work with over and over and over again!

As I use my die cutting machine frequently (most days) these are one of the things which need to be replaced. I flip and rotate the plate to try to increase the time it takes to become shaped like a banana but even so over time a new flat plate is necessary. To make the cutting plates last longer I only replace 1 at a time and I keep another labelled set for embossing. I write on them with a Sharpie because they are clear so they can get 'lost' on my table. I have bought a pair of Sizzix plates which are coloured brown which are easier to find on my table but clear plates or coloured plates all work well.

All Sizzix products are innovative, good value and easy to use. I bought these Big Shot cutting pads to use with my Big Shot Switch Plus for small dies instead of using the larger pads supplied with that machine. They will save wear and tear on the larger cutting pads, plus they are quicker to go through the machine and will be cheaper to replace. I use the larger pads with my large dies or when I want to cut multiple dies at the same time.

Brilliant I've got a big shot had it for years with the same plates but they have seen better days so thought I would treat my self to some new ones and they have made a big difference many thanks Janet

Great to get genuine Sizzix cutting plates for a little over the cost of copies. The new style plates are really easy to use with the chamfered edges, the narrowed edges help the plates go through the machine easily.
