The cricut looks new box well but am getting no Bluetooth on this cricut.I the review from amazon they said it was Bluetooth thats why i brought this ,,but I Just spend 4 hours trying to Connecticut Bluetooth on phone or Laptop.wont Connecticut to safe a life ...If yall telling me this is cricut air 2 and am not getting Bluetooth to connect How can this device be cricut air 2....No Bluetooth......But I hook it up USB to my laptop took me a while to find a free software cricut design space.And i must say This cricut is a Amazing ...Still waiting on my shipping company for my Accessories But i give this a 4 n a half Stars only because no Bluetooth

So this is my first cutting device (I use it for vinyl stickers) and it gets the job done. They have this simple tutorial project that gets you started and that teaches you the hardware and software basically. One issue I had was the cricut didn’t come calibrated so I had to run a calibration on it. I later moved the thing and the same thing happened. Maybe it’s about having a level surface??? Either way, calibrate once and then don’t move the thing. Otherwise you’r your cuts Won’t line up with the edges of the print.

Absolutely love my cricut and have made so many neat projects with it! Super satisfied with my purchase

So far, so good

So far so good! Ive had this a few days and the directions to get it up and running are very easy. So far, Ive just cut a bunch of images with cardstock and some vinyl to get used to it, but it seems to be working very well. For the reviews that say that you have to pay a monthly fee to use it, thats simply not true. The software is free and you can use it on a computer, tablet, or phone. The subscription is only if you want unlimited access to Cricuts images. But they have plenty of images that are free to use, plus the Internet is full of free images. You can also make your own easily, just watch some YouTube videos to see how. But if Cricut has an image that you really want to use that isnt free, you dont need to subscribe, you can buy an image individually. There is a free two week trial of their subscription, but Im not going to use that until I really feel like I could take advantage of it.

Loved everything about it while I had it, used it for only 3 weeks and it died (red power button). Thank goodness it was still within return period. Ended up getting the Explore 3 instead (along with Amazon protection plan since Cricut doesnt seem to have great support for their machines). If you are using as a business its a great crafting tool. But for occasional crafters might get expensive as you have to pay for almost all the graphics and fonts in the Cricut design space unless you have a subscription.

Very easy to use, I use it to make shirts

This is what I would call an initial review, and will probably come back and add more as I can use this more often. I waffled back and forth between the Cricut Explore Air 2 and the Cricut Maker. In the end, because I am just a hobbyist interested in playing with a new device, I decided to go with the cheaper option. And I must say I am glad I did. Included in the box is enough card stock to run through a simple card to help get everything set up. There is no software to install on your computer; everything is run through a cloud site. You just need to set up an account with Cricut and you are on your way. I walked through the sample card and it was cut and ready within minutes. I also bought some of the Cricut brand vinyl and transfer tape from Wal-Mart, to see how well that works. I used the vinyl as a stencil for a couple wood signs, using both Apple Barrel acrylic paint and spray paint. The lines were clean and sharp, and the final product came out clean. The sign art was designed using Gimp and was imported directly to the Cricut cloud software. I do wish the Cricut came with the 24” mat, instead of the 12”, but that’s just because I have a few bigger ideas I want to do and the larger mat would be helpful. All said and done, I would definitely recommend this for anyone who is interested in working with the Cricut but doesn’t want to shell out the extra money for the bells and whistles of the Maker.

It’s everything I thought it would be.
