Newbie here!! I spent weeks researching vinyl cutters and prices. I decided to go with the MH 871 knowing that I may run into problems. I'm happy to say that I set everything up last night in about 45minutes and made my first cut this morning.
Only issue is that one of the tubes for the vinyl roll rack is bent...I believe stand was previously returned.
I watched numerous videos, by US Cutter and others, and my first cut was perfect. There is a video showing how to correctly ground the cutter to the stand. I'm glad I watched it...there are only a couple screws on the bottom of the cutter that actually ground.
The MH is not nearly as loud as I was expecting it to be!!
