fiskars shapexpress system question?

[snugglepeas]

i was wondering if anyone has used this system, ive been looking for something that has templates with more than just the standard oval, round, diamond shapes and I saw this one but cant seem to find any reviews online and was hoping someone could tell me if it's easy to use or am I going to cuss at it after 5 mins of trying to figure it out.

I have the fiskars shape cutter and I love it. I have seen the new ultra express cutter and it is supposed to be easier to use. With either cutter you can adjust the blade depth to compensate for different thickness in papers and for free hand cutting. Using the templates isn't hard, but I did practice for a while before cutting something important. I found that you need to go slow around turns and keep the cutter flat on the template. When I cut borders using the decorative sides of the templates, I keep another template close by so that the cutter is resting on something on both sides so it stays flat. If you have any other questions, I will try to answer them, hope the above made sense.
