I absolutely love this machine. I have the Grand Calibur and love it also but at times it is so much larger than I need, I also have the Sapphire and am loving it also because it is great for the tiny things, kind of like the Three
Bears, Papa, Mama and Just Right! I believe the machines to be superior because they are quieter and smoother to operate. Not as cumbersome as the Sizzix products.

I am beyond happy with this machine ! I had the Big Shot for about 5 years, and was always having to add "shims" and extra papers to cut a nice clean cut on certain thin dies. Not with this one! All the extra plates make for super easy and CLEAN cuts each time! I haven't been able to stop using it since it came in the mail yesterday! Wonderful product, and the fact it closes up for easy storage and less "space taking" is BRILLIANT! Love!

The Platinum 6 is easy to use. The handle turns well, and die cuts come out cleanly. I like the way it folds up and looks good on the shelf when not in use. I find the 6" wide cutting area to be enough - few dies are larger than that, it seems to me. I have only used it for cutting paper, and it is great for that. I love that it is compact, yet does everything I need.

I needed a new manual die cutter and loved the fact the Platinum 6 will cut with steel rule dies as well as wafer dies as I own both. I have always loved Spellbinders machines (I have had two previously). The roller pressure is great and the machine makes thick sandwiches go through without feeling like I'm breaking off the handle.

My Cuttlebug died after 9 years and I decided to upgrade to this beauty. Best decision ever! I absolutely love my new black Platinum 6 die cut machine and it's so easy to layer plates for embossing, die cutting, etc. Sandwich directions are right on the base plate with visuals. It doesn't get any easier! It comes with a thin shim which is great too.

I bought this machine to die cut intricate dies and emboss with stencils. It does die cut the intricate dies, better then other machine I have, but the paper remains in the die and is difficult to remove. So far I have been unable to emboss using a stencil. Used different sandwiches to no avail. My old machine has a magnetic platform and the Platinum 6 does not. Contacted Spellbinders and there is no magnetic platform available.

I previously owned the Sizzix Big Shot before owning the Spellbinders Platinum 6 and I have to say that I love the Platinum 6! This machine folds up to be much more compact for easier storage, is quieter and seems to be smoother when running the plates through! I would definitely recommend this die cutting machine!

I've been looking and checking all sorts of reviews for Dye Cutting and Embossing machines. Once I decided to get the Platinum by Spellbinders I've never looked back! This is worth every penny! I use it almost daily and have never had to run the dyes or embossers twice--once does the trick beautifully! True to Spellbinders quality control-- they nailed it! Kudos to you at Spellbinders!
If you would purchase the Platinum I doubt you would ever be disappointed...I know I'm not!

I'm really loving my Platinum6 machine. I have always used the Big Shot but couldn't find it at Joann's anymore. They discontinued it. I was looking for a replacement and found the Platinum6. I love the fact that it folds up and takes less space on my work counter. This was an excellent replacement.

Everything arrived promptly and in good condition. Have not had any experience as yet with the Spellbinder Platinum 6, as I am waiting for other products to arrive so I can begin my new adventure of embossing and die cutting gift cards. However, I do thank you for the good service I have experienced thus far.

I have not done this but I have seen videos on you tube where this has been done by Jennifer McGuire.

You may be able to do this using the embossing pad and playing around with the sandwich. We hope this helps!

If you are using steel rule dies, you should be able to cut vinyl with this machine assuming the vinyl is the right size. Hope this helps.

I'm new to embossing, but have purchased a few 5x7 embossing folders. I'm thinking of purchasing this machine. I've read the embossing instructions, but am a little confused. Doesn't the paper go inside the embossing folder? Do I need to cut my embossing folder ? The instructions say:
Embossing folders are different than the embossing mat. The instructions you mentioned are to turn your dies into embossing. If you use the mat instead of the die plate it will put an impression into the paper instead of cutting it. Another way to stretch your dies. Embossing folders hold the paper inside and should never be cut apart. Hope this helps.

Does anyone know the difference between the Platinum 6 and the PE 100 platinum 6?

Those are actually the same machines. The PE 100 is just the sku number.

I have followed the instructions explicitly that were included with my spellbinders platinum 6 and have yet to successfully emboss a card with an embossing folder using your instructions. I put in the platform then the embossing folder with the card and then the plastic plate. That in itself just quickly runs through the machine without embossing because there's not enough pressure. I have to add 3 pieces of card stock to make it thicker. Is there something I am missing?

I had to switch to my old trusty Sizzix machine to use 3d embossing folders. I broke a couple forcing the sandwich to go thru, the on-line store I bought them from were so incredibly nice that they replaced them for free. I tried every instruction, emailed for help, tried every sandwich that I found from every stamping guru and I never got it to work. My old machine is reliable and does work.

I've been pretty successful using 3D and other embossing folders to work with my platinum 6 and the platinum spellbinder. Following the instructions of sandwiching does not work. I have tried using some of the embossing plates and play with the thickness to get the folders to work successfully. It's a trial and error but once you decide which embossing plate and die cutting plate works together, then you're in business. I'm not an expert nor am I a beginner. I just tried different things to see if it will work.
