Has anyone used the Spellbinders Platinum 6 die cutting machine? Any pros/cons you can share?

Depends on what you'll be using it for. Do you have steel rule dies to use? Do you want to cut material other than paper?
I don't have the Platinum 6 yet but I do have the Platinum machine and LOVE it!! It's basically the smaller version of it. I like to get it because of the smaller size (think more portable to take to crops/gatherings) and it cuts both the etched dies (aka wafter thin dies) and the steel rule dies. The opening is not as wide as the Platinum - 8.5 inches vs. 6 inches.
Just missed Michaels' 60% coupon and I have a gift card waiting to be used...LOL! So once that coupon comes around (and if it still includes Spellbinders)...I'm pouncing on it. LOL!
Good Luck on your decision!

Thanks MargieH. It would actually be my first die cutting machine. I don't have any dies yet but I would probably just be using the wafer thin dies on paper. From what I have seen online it seemed like a good machine, but I haven't heard anyone talk about it. I'm a card marker so 6" seems like a good size (I also don't have much space for craft storage). It seemed sturdier than the little Cuttlebug and more space efficient to store than a Big Shot.
