The Nestabilities work great once you fiqure out how to use them with your particular die-cut machine. There are no instructions on how to use the product. But once you get over this hump, they work great cutting all of the shapes included.
They DO NOT EMBOSS however until you buy an embossing pad. Again no instructions so you have to figure this out on your own.
Then there is storage. You need to keep them organized (there are over 100 dies, over 20 in each 4 count pack) but all that is provided is double faced tape to hold them down on cardboard. The tape eventually wears out but in some cases the individual Nestability can be bent due to the force needed to get it off the tape the first time.
Overall the product seem to be in its infancy and needs some improvements to instructions,long term storage and possibly initial packaging. But I am willing to pioneer on!

I've been contemplating purchasing these as separate sets for awhile, and when I found them as a "package" deal here on Amazon, I decided to go for it.You get 4 coordinated sets of dies. The circle die sets contain 7 dies each, and between the two sets, you can do matting with 1/8" borders. The scalloped circle sets contain 6 dies each, and again, you can do 1/8" matting. But when you combine the two sets, you get a ton of matting possibilities. Layer a circle on a scalloped circle; layer a scallop circle on top of a "plain" circle -with varying border widths.
I use magnetic sheets to store these (Spellbinder Magnetic Die Case combined with ArtBin 6979AB Magnetic Die Sheets, 3-Pack -I use a separate case for my "shapes" nestabilities-style dies (circles, ovals, flags, tags, etc.), so they're always handy and ready to use.
At the time I purchased these (February 2013), the price was excellent for the 4 sets. Definitely happy with my purchase.
