    I have the original explorer and still prefer to use it over the air 2. I can calibrate it so many times and still get a crappy print and cut

    I bought the Cricut explorer 2 air. first of all i called into the company to ask questions before i purchased the machine. i did alot of reserch online also watching videos etc...then i felt good about spending 300 dollars on all of it, and vinyls, cutting matts, cutters etc..when i got the machine in the mail and set eventually set it up. The first thin you do is create an online cricut account, put in your serial number and go to design space.com. The problem i started having is you cant download the program onto your desktop pc so in order to use the machine you have to be connected to the internet No one said anything about this: The 2nd thing is in order to use the online service you have to pay 10.00 per month No one said anything about this. So if i dont use it for 2-3 months i still have to pay right? There is some hidden things they dont tell you about before you buy this..i dont think its right to have to pay 120.00 a year to use this machine that i already purchased. if i had know any of this i would have never bought this. Im sending it all back for a refund. Beware: Update: i also purchased cutters and cutting mats that i never used, so i sent them back for a refund its been almost a month and no refund yet. im just one of the dissatisfied customers they have or had.

    Got this for my wife for Christmas and she absolutely loves it!! It is super easy to get started and she loves that you can connect your phone to it!! The machine looks great, cuts great, and has many features! The Cricut Explore Air 2 is a very high quality machine and it is very user friendly and convenient to use. Just download the Cricut Design Space app to your phone and it will get you started in no time!!

    There’s a million things you can create with this cricut machine. I love the color but most importantly, they made it easy to learn and create easy projects!

    To use the Cricut you need to either create or upload designs in their software, Design Space. They have a subscription to Design Space available where they give you access to images and fully designed projects for about $10 a month. Otherwise you can create/buy designs on your own and upload them into Design Space to cut out. For a couple of days the company notified customers that there would be a new policy moving forward where uploads into Design Space would be limited to 20 a month unless a user subscribed. There was customer uproar as these were not the terms we agreed to when we purchased the machines. Cricut has now reversed this policy so I am updating my review. Ive had my machine for a few years now. I think its pretty fun. We used it a lot for our wedding: to address our invitations, make jacket envelopes, seat reserved signs and other decorations. Ive used it to make a small box divided into 12 slots to hold my pens. Right now Im using it to make decorative screens for the bottom of our upstairs window to add just a little privacy. Design Space, the software, bugs out really easy and isnt designed well. Im trained in Illustrator and Affinity Designer so I use those to create my designs. It can take longer to cut something out and then weed it all off the mat than I realize, and Ive had some designs tear due to either a dull knife or being too intricate. Its not perfect but it sparks creativity and is a bit like a grown up toy.

    Bottom line: be prepared to spend some time learning how to use design space but so awesome once you learn how to make it do what you want One of my good friends raves about her cricut and has had a couple different ones. I finally decided to get one to prep for my daughter’s birthday party amongst other things. I was super excited to try it out and even asked my friend to walk me through the basics before it arrived. While I love the machine and the ability to cut and write quickly and neatly, there is definitely a learning curve. It took a lot of trial and error for me to figure out how to get the images to look and be positioned the way I wanted and also to get the images onto one page. Watching YouTube videos helped but I had to watch a few different ones for each new thing I wanted to do. Also, the videos aren’t always helpful since the design space looks pretty different now than it did when a lot of those videos were made. The most helpful for me was talking to someone who knew how to use the machine already and having them show me the basics. Even then, there was a lot of trial and error. However, it’s awesome once you figure it out! I actually had an easier time using the iPad app over the computer website design space. The Bluetooth feature helps a lot since you have the option to use the iPad or the phone.

    I have done many projects in card-stock, vinyl and foil transfer. I have been very pleased with the results. It is especially awesome at cutting out vinyl, even very intricate designs. It does not cut intricate designs in card-stock as well. I have found that unless you use the premium fine point cutting blades the (non-premium) ones wear out really fast. I went through 1 a week, and I wasnt doing that much cutting. The machine is really nice, just stock up on blades.
