Nestabilities are dies that are made by Spellbinders. Craft Critique published a great article about them, which can be found at http://www.craftcritique.com/2007/10/spellbinders-nestabilities.html
Yes, nestabilities will work in your cuttlebug. http://www.spellbinders.us/ct/store/pdf/Spellbinders%20Universal%20... Just check out this link for the details on how to use them with your bug.
Need is a lot different than want. Yes I want them, do I need them? That's a question only YOU can answer. :)

Jaime.....I agree with Lynn.....need and want are a matter of opinion....I personally can justify buying any nestability that Imight be able to get my hands on....and if you go to my blog you can see how I am storing mine now.....I Love them and they would be on my top ten list big time!

I have two complete sets -- the rectangles and circles. I would LOVE to have the remaining sets. Like the others said, need vs want is very subjective.
If you take the jump and get some, check out Gina K's great tutorial on her blog for using them with the Cuttlebug.

I *love* my Nestiblities and am so glad I got them!!! Did I "need" them no, I totally WANTED them. Now I can't get my hands on the new ones fast enough. I bought the "Gotta Have It" set when they first came out and have been adding to it as new releases are available.

I love love love my nesties!!! i have like 5 sets of them and I love them all... Although.. I got labels 1 and 2 the other day and I'm not so sure I like them. they don't seem to pop off the projects like the scalloped ones I have do... Just kinda plain jane but I've used them on cards already. :)
I think they are a must have.
Here's 2 cards I made with the labels ones

Nesties are the greatest thing since die cut rubber stamps. Yes - they can be used w/Cuttlebug and they work perfectly. One key thing - just make sure to use the correct "sandwich" when using the Nesties. It is provided for you.
There is a website where you can get a 40% off coupon each month that is good on Nesties (and of them). That is how I have accumulated my 6 sets. You can also buy a complete set (all the circles or all the rectangles) at one time and also use the 40% VIP coupon. All you have to do is sign up for it with your e-mail addy - no cost involved. I love dealing with this company. Here is the address: www.cutathome.com.
Hope this was helpful.

I agree cutathome are fab - and a must if you want to buy nesties. I'm in the UK and I still had them in my hands within a week!
Like the others have said want vs need is up to you alone, but I find my cards look a lot more professional now I'm not using scissors or knives to cut circles/ovals etc.

Hi new here! I'm interested in investing in Nestabilities but use a Zip-e-Mate. Does anyone here know if they will work with that system?

Shannon -yes, the Spellbinders dies work in the Zip-e-Mate!
If you go to you tube and put a search in for Spellbinders you will find a video made by Stacey Caron (creator of the Wizard and Spellbinders dies) she actually demonstrates using the dies in ALL the die cutting machines currently being sold. I like visuals, you can stop, do what she says and then push play again! She demonstrates the sandwiches that Spellbinders recommends to get the best results with whatever type of machine you have.
The Zip-e-Mate isn't demonstrated because it isn't sold anymore, but if you go to the Spellbinders website there is a compatability chart that will help you.
