Default Cuttlebug Machine vs. Cuttlekids Machine

Can anyone tell me what the difference is between these two machines? Can the embossing folders that everyone is using (swiss dot, etc) be used in the Cuttlekids machine? There is such a huge difference in the prices for these two machines...could I save money and get the Cuttlekids machine instead?

My understanding is that the cuttle kid's 'mouth' can only accommodate small 2x2 dies. Whereas the larger one can use all dies.

I would buy the Cuttlebug machine. You can use the kids dies in the bug! Saves a lot of money, especially for alphabets.

From someone who has both, go for the Cuttlebug. The CuttleKids really isn't much to write home about (for kids). My 4yo can turn the cuttlebug easier than the CK!
