  Abandoned by Spellbinders

  I agree with the first Reviewer, this is a very good machine. Although it appears small, but I was surprised at how many of my dies it can handle. The reason I would not recommend it to others is because it appears Spellbinders has abandoned any support or availability of replacement plates. Spellbinders response to my inquiries is that the machine has been discontinued. Yes, the cutting plate will last for quite awhile, but at some point a replacement will be needed. Just for information, I am having the same difficulty finding replacement plates for the Spellbinders Sapphire machine. Accessories for the Grand Calibur are still readily available, but I can't help but wonder about Spellbinders long-term support for the Platinum.

  Giant results out of a tiny machine!

  I bought this machine because I don't have room to put up a table for a large die cutting machine. (I can literally hold this machine on my lap, wind the crank, and end up with wonderful die cuts and embossed cardstock!) It works with almost all of my dies. It's great to have an end product that looks just as good as if I had used a full-sized machine on it! I really really like this machine and like the results it gives me when making greeting cards.
  
  There is only one drawback, I am having a hard time finding a new "cutting
  plate" for this machine. I use it all the time so I'm hoping to find one soon.
