Customer Reviews for Cricut - Maker 4 Smart Cutting Machine - Seashell

My Maker 3 broke so I figured I'd upgrade to the Maker 4. Basically it's just faster and louder and that's it. Not every material can be cut faster. It'd be a lot better if the speed could be adjusted per material. I definitely wouldn't recommend anyone else "upgrade" to this.
Response from CricutBy Cricut, Cricut, January 22, 2026
HI Candi, and thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We were sorry to hear the upgrade hasn’t met your expectations—especially after replacing a machine that had already stopped working. Your feedback about speed, noise, and material‑specific adjustments is genuinely valuable.
While the newer model is designed to offer improved performance, it’s clear that those improvements didn’t translate into the workflow you were hoping for. Not all materials can safely be cut at higher speeds, and I understand how limiting that can feel. I’ve passed your comments along to our product team, and we know they will review it. In the mean time, please know you can contact Cricut Member Care at any time with any questions you may have at 877-727-4288, and we would be happy to help.

I love the Maker 4 but I HATE the changes to Design Space that are being made. By moving the editing tools to the right side, you lose the majority of the working canvas. You cant shrink the layers panel so between the editing panel and the layers panel, there isn't much room to work. I don't understand the reasons for the changes but would prefer the changes be undone.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I had to replace my Maker 3 and upgraded to the Maker 4. It is much faster and cuts wonderfully. I love the options for tools and smart products.

I like how fast it is and that it doesn't beep! I can quietly craft while my husband is sleeping!

It is very nice look, and 100% faster than the #3, but I think the noise is strong, but I really like the improvements.
