Anna Griffin Empress Elite Die Cutting Machines with Large Plates - 10% Faster Electric Die Cutting and Embossing Machine for Card Making, Scrapbooking Die-Cut Machines with 360 Degree Turntable

This is worth every penny and that comes from someone who is thrifty. It works beautiful. Quiet & you can cut many dies all at once. It is a card crafters dream. I wish I had gotten it many years ago.

This is a fabulous cutting machine. Very clean cuts, no added trimming to be done. Heavy duty, very well built.

I love my Empress. It is electronic and cuts well every time, even with dies that are less expensive. I have five die cutting machines, and this is by far the best. It is easy to use, you just feed the plates (that come with the machine) into the machine and it takes it from there. No more hand cranking. This is particularly nice for projects where you have a lot of cutting to do. It isn’t as small as most all of the hand cranking ones. It is on its own turntable which makes it quite functional. It is a rather pricey purchase, but well worth the money.

Love this electric die cutter. Very easy to use.

This machine does a great job of embossing & die cutting. The cuts ard clean, the extra pieces come out easily. Embossing is clear. The electric feed is quick & relatively smooth. It gives my arm a break! The turn table feature is nice, as I don't have to constantly rotate it. The only reason this got 4 stars instead of 5 is the heavy weight of the machine. It makes it hard to move on my desktop.

Excellent purchase! Precision cuts in the first pass, simple to use, simple stack every time with no hand cranking and cracking plates.Pricey but delivers!

Love this machine. It always cuts everything completely and cleanly. The magnetic plate keeps the dies perfectly in place for precise cuts every time!

Great price. I have waited for this to go on sale in Amazon's last sale. So happy with product it's a work horse of a machine. Very pleased with this product.

the massive plates are a bonus, the magnetic plate is too, it is heavy like a sewing machine but so is a manual die cutter this size anyway, its lovely not having to turn a handle and wonder if its going to snap off one day, I am pretty sure that you will be able to get spare cutting plates for it in England not just one place, I would recommend it definitely for cardmaking it is effortless. the turntable is great too the only thing I would say that is negative in a way is the colour i mean all the beautiful colours in the spectrum and this is foul, it looks like its been in a room full of smokers for twenty years without a window open , even black would of been better, i am going to get decals or something interesting and make mine more goth

I received my new Anna Griffin Empress Elite exactly when they said it would arrive. I was worried about ordering this way given the value of the product but I have to say that it was a perfect shipment and the product was so well packaged. I love everything about it…the plates that come with it are the largest ones which allows for multiple die cutting at one time. Very happy with this item. Now I am looking for different sized plates so I will continue to check Amazon for the 5x7 plates called small. So far, they don’t seem to be available here. I am hoping this company will stock them as well.

beware if in the uk, as its not for our electrical system, you will have to buy a adaptor, also found it cheaper by £60.00

Absolutely love this machine!! So easy to use!!

Maxine works great. It’s so much bigger than my good old cuttlebug. It’s also much easier to use being electric. Getting older, hand cranking is harder. The only issue I have is the outer edges don’t cut through all the way so I have to move the dies around a bit to get them to cut through. And it’s a bit pricey.
