CricutJoy Smart Machine DIY Project Beginner Bundle with Insert Cards & Vinyl

I feel really disapointed after purchasing such an expensive item only to discover that in order to use its app products I have to purschase fonts and images!!!! To make matters worse the app keeps on crashing and closing mid project. I realy hate this and feel decieved. I will return asap.

I bought this as a birthday gift to myself. I’ve used it a handful of times and it’s pretty easy. I’ve made stuff with the vinyl is comes with and a birthday card. It does not have to print to cut feature, but I knew that when I bought it. If you don’t plan to use it for a lot of projects and don’t have a lot of workspace, this is worth it.

I have never been more disappointed and upset with both amazon and cricut. I got this in July for a gift for my mom, she had it less then 3 months and then it stopped working. I reached out to both platforms for help and because the warranty just passed amazon refused to help me. Cricut just gave me the run around and asked for multiple videos showing the product not working. I sent these videos and they still asked for more videos instead of just taking the machine that is a paperweight at this point back. If you want a huge disappointment then buy this hunk of junk. You will end up with a $100 something paperweight you can't do anything with and a whole lot of fusteration. Do better amazon and cricut. Don't sell crappy products. Or help people who actually need it. Thanks. Thinking about canceling my membership over this.

The Cricut machine works very well. The accessories this comes with are great. My only issue is that you have to pay a good amount of money to use anything but the absolute basic fonts and shapes (you have free access to like 5 fonts and a dozen basic shapes). I was not aware that I would need to spend the additional money monthly to access designs.

Unless you are really into computers this machine is a little too fussy for this baby boomer. MY HOBBY IS CARDMAKING AND i THOUGHT THIS WOULD MAKE IT EASY FOR ME BUT IN ORDER TO MASTER THIS I MAY NEED A PERSONAL COACH. THE CRICUT DESIGN SPACE IS NOT WELL ORGAINIZED EITHER, IT ASKS YOU FOR YOUR PREFERENCES BUT THEN YOU STILL HAVE TO GO SEARCH THROUGH DESDIGNS THAT WON'T WORK FOR YOU. HOPEFULLY I WILL EVENTUALLY GET THE HANG OF IT BUT UNTIL THEN I CAN SEE IT AS A BIG HEADACHE

I bought this for my mom for Christmas and she loves it! All of the accessories were perfect to get her started, and they don’t feel cheap at all. It’s perfect for little crafts!
