Mat won't load after 3 times...
on April 4, 2019
Posted by: Sad ScaNCut SDX125 owner
I have used my Scanncut SDX125 THREE times... then the mat loaded crooked and now it won't load at all... BUT it does go in backwards or upside down... They are sending me a new mat but they are out of stock!
This is my second one as my first one had a malfunction right out of the box...

Very impressed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. I am not a pro (yet) when it comes to the scan and cut machines. But, I am learning I have another brand and I can say it can be very overwhelming at times the setup by itself took me well over an hour.
When it came to the setup for the Brother Scan and Cut I found myself cruising smoothly through setup. It was so quick I had set aside a couple of hours to do the setup. I was able to fully explore it plus became familiar with all the various modes. I even did the cute project my favorite color is purple by the way so that was extra kudo points. The machine comes with what I would call a starter pack. The starter pack comes with a cutting mat, a stylus, small spatula, and a blade cartridge. All in a cute plastic envelope that can be easily stored in the machines flip up storage compartment.
I like the fact that I can design and make my own projects. Just by scanning in an image. For now till I get really good at designing my own I will stick with the over 250 built in designs that comes with the Scan and Cut. I like the ease of the flip up built-in LCD touchscreen. You can use the stylus or your fingertip which I want to keep the screen as clean as possible so the stylus comes in handy. I can appreciate the fact that it's not loud at all it didn't disturb my fiance unlike the other brand cut machine that I have. I've taken the time to research blades and I've found that they are for more budget friendly than other brands which is a major plus for me. I am very impressed and I see myself using this Brother Scan and Cut for many more projects to come.

Endless creative possibilities!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product, the ScanNCut SDX85S, for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of it, and I'm so happy to share it, because my daughter and I are having SO much fun with it! Its almost endless possibilities for creativity is such a bright spot for us during this crazy and (seemingly endless) time spent indoors. This was easy to set up and hook up to my cellphone. We've been making a lot of cute stickers and cards, and we're planning to make some vinyl transfers to iron on t-shirts this weekend. Seriously, I feel like we'll be learning and discovering new features and ways to use all of the included fun designs for a good long time! I highly recommend this - it's awesome!

Best Cutting Machine
on March 1, 2023
Posted by: debbie

I have 1 each of other competitor's cutting machines and I can honestly say, this is the best one. I use this machine more than I have the others as this one really meets my needs. Not only can I use it for vinyl and paper crafts, I use it for fabric. I'm a quilter and love this machine for cutting those pesky appliques. Also works well with my in-the-hoop machine embroidery projects.

Disappointed

I have had my Scan and Cut dx about 2 weeks and already having trouble with loading the mat, same problem many many are having. Must order a new mat, replacements are impossible to find. SHAME on you Brother for not addressing this problem that an overwhelming number of your loyal customers are facing without your support. Unfortunately I will have to return this machine....
