A good investment. I bought it for cutting Flex, and neatly etched, even texts with thin fonts. There we attacked easter deco in cartoné paper. And it works very well too. I make simple cuts with personal reasons and more complex with the shop models. There must be some missed the time to master the settings I contacted support for a problem with the software, the problem was fixed that day. I take off a star because the explanation manual, in French is very succinct, and videos are provided in English. Fortunately there are lots of tutorial on the net to take the machine in hand.
