My first Cri-Cut and I am loving it. It took me a couple days to get the "nerve up" to get started. I started youtubing all kinds of how to videos and in no time I had made two onesies for my NEW TWIN GRANDsons! Please excuse the poor lighting for the picture. The onsies are actually white. I was too excited to keep redoing pictures! Look at the detail!! MY VERY FIRST PROJECT!! I have SEVEN GRANDchildren that are going to be having so many personalized clothing (and other products) now!!!

The media could not be loaded. Brand new Cricut Explore Air 2, a beautiful machine that cuts nicely. Along with the machine and cords, it came with 1 blade attachment, one black pen, the blue cutting mat, and three scrap pieces of card stock to practice on. So far I’ve cut out a couple iron on logos, cut a few vinyl names for mugs and drawn a character on card stock. It works great and I hope to get a ton of use out of it!

i had an awful time learning this machine, but after much studying and watching youtube videos I learned it was not the machine but the user , now I better understanding and absolutely love it...

Using the bluetooth and connect to the cricut app on my phone,, I was able to make cardstock flowers, birthday banner, decorated cup using vinyl, branding box's for my business, labels, custom ornaments, stickers, nails stickers, stencils for custom shirts using fabric paint, stencils for nail stamping, make custom mini boxs, and more. This saves a whole lot of money and time as the cricut does it all with 1 click of my phone. I don't agree with the bad reviews on here. It us that easy my kids are able to operate it.

*04/13/20 Update Cricut remedied all of my issues and even too the time to give me extra tips for new users to the Cricut design space. Took me a long time to edit my review but this went from 1 star to 5! Way to go Cricut Customer Support Box states that I should have received a cutting mat, test project, cutting blade and more but I only received the machine, pen and charging cords. Super disappointed by thefirst impression. I will attempt to contact Cricut to get the remaining items that it claimed to come with. If everything is remedied I will update my review.

I am learning. The test cut print didn't work. In cardstock mode, the machine did not cut through very well. Now, testing regular paper cuts, and I am in love with the cute artworks by Digital Art Dreams. The Cricut Explore Air 2 is stunning! I have no problems loading SVG files and making it cut the silhouettes. I will test vinyl soon. So far, this is a great paper-cutting machine!

Addicting!!! Don’t be afraid to take it out of the box like I was. Go for it! The guides and online videos make it far less intimidating than you think it might be. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time using the Cricut. It’s my new hobby. Although all my projects are not perfect, I do think I’m getting better. There are many tips and hints online and Pinterest has been a good source. There is so much this machine can do. Enjoy! 😀👍🏻❤️

Good for cutting stickers. Not a fan of how much wasted space is used for the guidelines, but it’s necessary. Cutting sound isn’t too much a problem. Inconvenient that you have to place the mat and cut sheets individually but expected. Peeling stickers from the mat can be a hassle but expected. A little big for my preferences (around the same length as my printer) but not too big a problem.

I absolutely love my cricut explorer air 2. You can create so many things! You can use cricut designs or you can create your own designs. It is so easy to learn and very fun to use. I created so many things, cards, t shirts, vinyl decals! If I can use this anyone can use this machine. I ordered this machine because it was $20.00 less than in the store and it is a nice blue color.

The cricut is an amazingly easy to use product with many possible home and professional uses. There are hundreds of ideas and designs on their site. Their demo videos are professionally done and classy. Their support lines and chat is something out of the world ... they take their calls, talk to you till your questions are answered, and are answered by real experts. One of the best products and services I have had the luck to use and review.
