Big kick and big shot

[jranagel]

What's the difference? The monogram letters from sizzix says you can only use the big kick machine, but I think I want the big shot.

Thanks

What was the answer? I was searching for the exact same question...

Sharon, the Big Shot and Big Kick are the same machines essentially - the differences are only in colour and style. The Big Shot is marketed under the Ellison brand name and the Big Kick under Sizzix.

Ellison and Sizzix branded items are totally interchangeable so you can use both sets of products in either of the machines - plus you can use other brand dies and embossing folders like Cuttlebug and QuicKutz, for example.

Are they the same size then?

Great thread.

I had the same question and went online to Sizzix website and asked them. Essentially they said the only difference was the color. I've seen the Big Shot personally and it looked like it was made better. Just my opinion.

I LOVE my Big Shot! I have not found anything I can't use in it! The Cuttlebug embossing folders work fantastic!
