Our take on the Sizzix Big Shot Switch Plus Machine

The Big Shot Switch Plus is Sizzix's electric version of its classic manual die-cutting machine. A motor drives the rollers, so you feed dies and paper through with the press of a button instead of cranking a handle, which is easier on the hands and shoulders. It takes the same 9-inch-wide dies and standard cutting pads as the manual Big Shot, and a drawer under the platform stores plates and accessories. It suits card makers, scrapbookers and mixed-media crafters who cut often or have hand or wrist strain; occasional crafters may find a manual machine simpler and cheaper to own.

Best forFrequent card makers and scrapbookersCrafters with hand, wrist or shoulder strainMixed-media and paper-craft hobbyistsPeople who already own Sizzix dies and pads
Pros
  • Motorized rollers cut and emboss without cranking
  • 9-inch opening fits standard Big Shot dies and pads
  • Built-in drawer keeps plates and accessories together
  • Overload detection stops the motor under too much pressure
  • Side hand holds and non-slip feet make it easy to move and steady
Cons
  • Needs a power outlet, unlike the manual Big Shot
  • Takes up more bench space than a hand-cranked machine
  • Motor adds complexity and cost over the manual version
  • Thick stacks and some intricate dies still need care to feed

Questions and answers

Does it work with my existing Big Shot dies and pads?
Yes. It uses the same 9-inch-wide dies and standard cutting pads as the manual Big Shot, so most existing supplies carry over.
Do I need to crank it by hand?
No. The motor feeds the rollers at the press of a button, which is the main reason people choose it over the manual Big Shot.
How is it different from the manual Big Shot?
It does the same cutting and embossing but is powered, adds a storage drawer and overload detection, and needs an outlet. The manual version is smaller and simpler.
What comes in the box?
The machine itself, plus a set of cutting pads and a platform for feeding dies through. Check the specific bundle for which plates are included.
Can it cut fabric or thicker materials?
It handles paper, cardstock and similar craft materials well. Very thick or layered stacks can strain the motor, so feed them slowly and in thinner passes.
Is it good for someone who only crafts occasionally?
It is a solid choice if you cut often or have hand strain. Occasional crafters may get by with the cheaper, smaller manual Big Shot.
