Cricut Joy Machine & Digital Content Library Bundle

I bought this machine for cutting out designs on stencil vinyl to use as a blocker for copper etching. This little machine is quite the value and it has exceeded my expectations. The accuracy of the cutting is really excellent and the pressure exerted by the blade is just enough so that it only cuts through the material and doesn't even appear to touch the backing. I did find out rather quickly that although the design app is free if you want to get some of the better designs you either need to purchase them separately or get a paid subscription but at around $10 a month with your first month free you get a lot for your money and at a cost of $1.00 each to buy the premium designs should you not want the subscription it really is quite the bargain. The only real drawback is that nothing is controlled manually except for plugging it in and of course loading your project or loading the pen or knife. Everything is done through the app so if you have internet issues you are dead in the water. But for the price it is an excellent product. I would recommend buying one of the bundles if you are unsure just what you will be making or if you don't have materials for your specific project. I already had the vinyl and the transfer tape I needed and I purchased the machine only. It did come with a small cutting mat but I did need to purchase a longer mat as some of my designs could not be done with the smaller one. But other than that it was a go for me right out of the box. Installing the app and getting started were easy and the customer support is great. I give it a big thumbs up and highly recommend it if you want something that's really affordable and compact as long as your projects don't exceed the 4.5 Inch width of the feed. Or if you already have a machine for bigger projects and are looking for something for the small jobs that's compact and portable with a price tag to match.

I bought this as a gift because I already have one of my own and love it. It’s perfect for small projects and super easy to use. The digital content bundle is a nice bonus and makes it easy to get started. The only downside is that it doesn’t do print-then-cut. If that feature is important to you, the Cricut Joy Xtra would be the better option. Otherwise, this is a great little machine.

I bought this primarily to make precision custom stencils for my cosplay work, but I see myself making many gifts with this as well. The small size can be a bit limiting but it works well for what I need, and I like how portable the small machine is. I’ve cut my first trial pieces and they came out incredibly accurate and with amazing details. This will absolutely get lots of future use for my work, and probably I’ll get requests from friends once they see what kind of high quality work I can produce.

Works great. Perfect size for me as I don’t do huge projects and it stores away nicely.

I like the size . The ease of the use

Works well but software is very limited and can be hard to navigate on laptop or phone app. Sheets are expensive and too small, buying rolls is better but have to precut to fit machine. Difficult to get proper cut depth. Nice size doesn’t take up space. Software is main flaw. Wait to buy on sale.

Item is very good and a nice tool to your craft projects, the only issue was that not everything shown in picture as included was received. Missed the roll of Smart Label Writable Vinyl.

Me encanta es ideal para hacer trabajos de papelería

Ha sido para un regalo y a mí mujer le ha gustado mucho

Thank you

Good for small project

What a great machine. I bought it for my niece and she is using it to make labels, cards, small projects. Highly accurate, comes with a good software to design and print and works well overall. The materials can also be found everywhere but stock up during sales season at Walmart or Amazon and u should be good to go
