This is a great deal, BUT I already have the Imagine (which is my primary cutting machine), a 5 year old E that is in her tote for retreats, a new baby bug in it's case for crops AND a pretty red cricut cake, that I can make work for me, on refrigerator, do I really need this one too?
If this machine won't work with my Gypsy, then I don't want it as I won't ever use CCR.
Opinions!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Need some intervention, HELP!!!

The Gypsy works with the Mini and the Mini is a lot smaller and lighter than the E!

I would say no. You have the baby bug and it will work just as well.

It is such a good price I actually considered buying one and I already have one that I love since it does work with my Gypsy! Jeanne

I bought mine a while back and love it! It cuts better than my E and I find I have been using it when I am cutting smaller things and don't need the big mat.

I am sooooo tempted to buy this... but I have an e2 that I never use and an expression. I take my expression to retreats & many friends use it. They don't have Gypsy's. think...think...think...

If you have a gypsy this machine works great with it. However, if your gypsy breaks you'll be forced to use CCR because it is not a stand alone machine.
As far as how it cuts, I think it rivals some of the really expensive other machine brands for the little intricate cuts.
Do you need it? No you don't.

I did my own intervention - I stopped watching HSN - LOL I ended up getting the envelope punch and the Purple Cow anywhere stapler/staples. I am going to convention next month in Portland and need to save a little money. (at the rate I am going, it will be very little).

I was debating on getting a mini (sale price $69.99 / free shipping ) from teameag10 on ebay, OR the CTMH Artiste cartridge. I bought the cartridge.

For those of you in Tampa - the HSN outlet has them for 70% - the one on Hillsborough had 3 and 4 E2's also 70% off.
