Default Tonic stamp platform

Which do people use more the large or small tonic stamp platform. I am fairly new to stamping.

I have the larger size, because the smaller one wasn't available yet when I purchased mine. But wish I had the smaller one because all of my stamps would fit on it and it would take up less space on my desk.

I have both...........got the larger one first and then the smaller one when I heard Misti had won a lawsuit that resulted in Tonic having to discontinue theirs. I didn't want to take a chance on something breaking on my original because it is so amazing. Now, at times, I have stamps on both of them at the same time for the same project.

I bought the original size when it was first released. As I don't do workshops etc, I hadn't bothered with the Travel version, till I saw a friends. Then I realised it's actually a perfect size! The stamping area is 6 1/2" square, so will hold pretty much any stamp you may have. Hubby bought me one for Christmas, and love it. I did a comparison of the two on my Blog, in this POST.

I have both but mostly use the small one. With its open side and bottom, it’s not restrictive. (And nice blog, Shaz!)

I have both also. I purchased the larger one when it first came out, then got the smaller one at Tuesday Morning a few months ago when they had a small shipment for a great price. Honestly, I use both, although I think the smaller one more. I just like them so much better than other platforms out there. I'm sad it didn't work out that they couldn't stay on the market, but decided to 'hedge my bets' and buy the smaller one when I heard about the outcome of the lawsuit. JMHO, but I think its a better product and you can't beat the price right now!

I have both but I do use the smaller one more because I primarily make cards.

I would get the small one. I have the big one only because it was all there was on the market then. I think the small size is all you would ever need for cards.

Anyone else surprised that it is still so easy to buy one, even long after their announcement that they would stop making them and maybe collaborate with MISTI???

Guessing the deal was to not produce more for the US market, and they already had thousands made. Plus, it's still going to be available in the rest of the world.

That! And shipping charges aren’t always bad from the UK to the US.
