Downside…the mats
on April 1, 2026

First, I love the machine, but the 3 stars is based on the overall system which includes the mats that you use. They don’t last long, they are not self healing, and very difficult to find replacements and they are expensive. You can only use the mats that are for this particular machine, otherwise it won’t load. I use it primarily for direct cutting of embellishments for journals. The amount of time saved when fussy cutting is substantial. However, the machine reads solid lines, so if your graphic has no distinct border or outline it will cut into the graphic.
I bought this machine mainly for cutting my stamped images, my printed ephemera pages, and my traced die cut images. It works really well for everything I hoped it would. I'm still learning and I'm sure there will be many more projects I haven't thought of.
I have tried every combination to cut stickers. it is a joke! it will NOT cut using a kiss cut. It cuts through the image even thou I tell it to cut a white border it still cuts thru my images. I would not waste my money on this machine again! BUY A CRICUT!!!!!

The machine works fine, but getting images into a format that it can use is a little convoluted.
