Who uses Xyron? Which one should I buy?

[Nik's Mom]

Hi,
I'm thinking about buying a Xyron. If you have one, which do you have? I would like to use it for putting my die cut letters on my page, as well as photo's. What's a good size to have?

I don't have one yet....I just ordered a 510 on the recommendation of WDWLVR (Mary) She has one and LOVES it. Joann.com has a 50% off code that is good through today.... JANH550 which brought it down to $25!

HTH

I LOVE my little X (walmart $7.97 for die cut letters - but repositionable doesn't work as great so I only by permenant refills now)

I use my 510 a lot too for bigger peices!

I am having a hard time resisting the new one on qvc today - it looks awesome too!

 

[Nik's Mom]

Yes, the QVC one seems neat. It just sold out, but I have it in my shopping cart.

I love my little X. I would not have patience for my sizzlet alphabet if I did not have that and I just got the 900 for Christmas. I have not really played around much with it but I'm hoping to use it to make magnets for valentine's day.

Another vote for the Little X, if you have big items you can always use the tape runner, you don't need to put adhesive on the whole back

I have the little X and I LOVE it! I use it for punchouts, borders, ribbon... and I just bought the Quickutz on QVC today so I am going to be X'ing it all over the place!

I just may have to head to Walmart to look for the X. Sounds like a good deal.
Thanks.

I have the "X", the 250, the 510 and did have the old 900, but sold it. I use the "X" almost every day and cannot scrap without it. I agree with JullianneP that I could never stand my sizzix letters without the "X". The other I use is the 510. I don't use it a ton and could do without it, but I like having the magnet and laminating option and use it for larger things. The 250 was a waste of money for me. My DD uses it to play with some (it came with some kid craft stuff too), but I wouldn't buy another one of those. Good luck and have fun deciding.

It sound like it put adhesive on things and laminates? I'm so confused.
