What are your thoughts about using plastic cookie cutters? Are they durable? Do they work well? I came across a plastic cookie cutter set which had all sorts of shapes and letters for $14.99. I liked the variety but am a little skeptical.
Metal Cookie cutters will generally produce a cleaner cut.
I have both plastic and metal, if you have the dough really cold, or pop it in the freezer for a little bit before you cut the shapes, the plastic ones work just as good I think...

I like the big copper metal ones...they can come in the most unusual shapes and designs, and they are deep and cuts well, although they use more dough because they are very big.. The edges as very sharp and clean.
I like them a lot... Most of the plastic ones are very common designs
I use metal and plastic. I have the big Wilton's bucket and use most of them. I do like the durability of plastic. I have quite a few metal and I guess I don't store them as I should since they get a little out of shape sometimes. I've never used the copper ones. Maybe when I win the lottery!

Interesting, just out of curiosity is there a proper way to store the metal ones? That has always been my problem with metal is them getting just a bit bent out of shape after a time. Any suggestions?
Carrielynn, I have some of my Mom's old ones so they are pretty old 
because I remember using them when I was a wee tot. My own opinion, just make sure you clean them carefully, do not put them in the dishwasher and lay them flat if you can. Mine are actually in bags with no problems, however.
Cool, thanks...I always hand wash my stuff now. I rarely have to use my dishwasher (it sucks anyways) Thanks for the advice. You are sweet.
