I like the size of this. Unfortunately I need some one on one instructions! This isn’t as easy as it sounds. So many questions! I ask them on fb pages but no answers. Ugh
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great machine but eats my mat.

I bought this machine 3 months ago and still learning. I love the fact it’s so small and does amazing work. But, I’ve gone through 2 mats so far. That is the only fault of this amazing little mean machine.

I just bought my cricut joy xtra and am still trying to find out how to use it. I wish it was easier to navigate the how to do things, still have not figured out how to print messages on cards.

I cannot express how much I love my Joy Extra. I bought it to travel with, and my daughter’s wedding was the first experiment. It was perfect. The fact that it cuts on a regular size sheet was amazing bc we had to print some things last minute. Which meant print then cut was our favorite feature for that day. I used it to make place cards, update place card dinner choices, the seating charts needed an update, cutting vinyl for signs bc we couldn’t place it ahead of time for fear of messing it up, and much more. This machine was PERFECT for on the road CRICUT- ing (is that a word?)
I would buy this 100% again ( and I did, my daughters wanted them for gifts after they saw how easy and useful the Joy extra was).

Cost, time to learn

Materials are costly and despite being a package I still needed additional materials to get anything done. It also takes hours of practice to hone your skills.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I debated getting the Joy Xtra as I already have a Maker but after a bit of research decided to get it as a Christmas gift for myself. I love it! It's easy to use and I don't need to clear a big area to make a few quick cards or projects.

The when working is great. It freezes up and gives codes every so often. But my big issue is the mats Suck! After awhile they curl up on the edges and make the corners wacky. Plus they are so expensive. I think the Corporation has become a bit greedy.
