What die cutting machine to have for xmas?

[Pigtails]

My lovely husband wants to buy me a die cutting machine but im not sure which is best. Have been card making for about 6 months now but never tried die cutting so not sure if i will like it plus we are on a budget as just bought our first home together so dont want to spend a lot of money for it to be stuck in a cupboard and hardly used. Any ideas? was thinking of either the tag a long or the big shot but not really sure of the difference
thanks a million xx

I've got a big shot and although I haven't tried it yet (can't until all the Christmas cards are made!), hubby had a little test for me and it looks good! Sorry I can't help anymore than that but if your hubby wants to wait until the new year then I will be able to let you know what I think!
