I’ve only used it a couple times, I bought it because I needed something small that I could take with me when traveling that would do more than the joy, but it’s still a little big and heavy. Wish I would have waited on the new joy2 that would have been perfect.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I like the compact design of this machine. I can take it anywhere with me. I currently have it at my office sitting on my desk and it takes up very little space. It’s the perfect size to make things for my office. I also love that I can work on things during my breaks without having to plan ahead to bring everything with me.

I had bought an HP laptop to work with the Cricut and I had many,many difficulties. I believe they were on the HP part. I now have bought an Apple MacBook Air and things are working out beautifully.

Great for beginners like myself. Don’t look at to many YouTube videos it can by overwhelming. Take your time with trail and error. It will become easier.

I brought Joy Xtra in February, 2026 and had the hardest time cutting a project. I called a friend and she walked me through the process twice before it finally begin the cut.

The Joy Xtra was a birthday gift, about year and haft ago. I enjoy working with it on smaller projects. It’s compact and to store in a small workspace.
