I had been waiting to buy a die-cutter because I was sure it was a craft luxury I couldn't afford. When I saw this one, I had to snap it up. I know it's an older model, but never having had one in the first place, that didn't matter to me. It was half the price of any machine I've seen! I've already made cards with cardstock, two mugs and a platter with adhesive vinyl, and a T-shirt dress with iron-on vinyl, all of which look totally professional, I am told. Next, I plan on making Turkish tile stencils for redecorating our basement. The Cricut is easy to use, even for totally custom designs (once you figure it out), and I'm having so much fun. All my friends will be getting personalized, professional-looking gifts this year!

The software is horrible!!!!! I am a SCAL user and the SCAL software was so much easier and cut out uploaded shapes 100% better. The software is only on-line, so when my internet is down, which happens a lot, I can not use my machine. Well, what do you want to do when you have no internet? PLAY with the machine! Very frustrating. It is a print and cut priority software which is nice, however; I use a lot of uploaded or designed images. In SCAL it can read the image and cut out all the holes, for instance a doily, a ship with windows, baby rattle,words, etc., Cricut Design Space will only do the outline of an uploaded image unless you manually erase every area you want cut out. And honestly it does a poor job of that. So for best quality we're back to purchasing their images at $ .99 a pop. The hardware so far has been great, but the software.....yikesRead full review

Everything was like brand new. I received my printer within 3 days of paying for it. No damage and everything was sealed and wrapped like new. The only issue i had was that the weeding tools and extra needles were missing, and i need to pay for these seperate. Other than that its perfect. I absolutely recommend getting this if you're on a tight budget and want to get started on creating sooner than later.

It is extremely hard to figure out how to do so. i got how to use it correctly during the demonstration part, but after that, I was totally lost. So now its off to Youtube to self-teach myself. Hopefully, it does work out for me. However, this price is the best. Cheapest that I could find!

I had the original Cricut but this is a whole other level ! Easy to use, excellent cut every time and the dial on the machine makes it effortless to use anything form fabric to vinyl to vellum and not have an issue. Every crafter should own one ! You will need to buy the carry bag as it is a bit heavy.

I love this thing! I wish I had bought one sooner and I can't wait to make hundreds of projects. It cuts 7 different materials, there are hundreds of YouTube videos and hundreds of support materials available. The projects are limitless.

I have only used it a couple of times because I am still learning about what I can do with the machine. I have many ideas as I am reading and watching videos. I am sure I will enjoy using it or many things.

Such a wonderful product, I love that you don't have to buy all of your images, and it's so easy to use! 5 stars!

Thought I would be able to use my existing cartridges and overlays but couldn't. Very disappointing. Still waiting for my refund.

I thought a simple project was supposed to come with the machine? I can't judge the value, quality or recommend it until I run a project. I did receive some paper and I think a sheet of vinyl but no instructions on how to use it. I suppose I'll have to watch some videos to learn since this is all new to me.
