Excellent product for multiple projects

I received my Cricut Maker 4 as a gift, I’m still learning all it has to offer, but so far, I’m really impressed. It is faster than my Explore Air 2 and handles more materials. It is compatible with all the materials I have in my stash of projects and makes precise cuts and lines. I would highly recommend for anyone.
I would recommend this to a friend!

So Many Uses - Creative and Organization!

I bought this after seeing several YouTube videos showcasing what the Cricut machines could do. I went with the Maker because I wanted to be able to deboss. So far I love it!!! I am having fun doing multiple projects - all personal use - but so much fun making Thanksgiving items, cake toppers and cake stencils. Great product and I am amazed at how many things it can do! I am using it to better label many of my bins and containers but also for holiday decor. I am having a ball. YouTube videos have been great as the most difficult part is figuring out some of the software. The software isn't difficult - but some little quirks and more advanced projects take some time and experience. I am loving the "Access" subscription now since there are so MANY premade projects to customize and help new users or just give some ideas.

Love the machine, hate the new software!

I LOVE my new Cricut Make 4!! FIRE! But what the heck did you do with Cricut design space!? With the bar on the side, I have very little space to see any design. With the original bar at the top, I had more space to work with. What the heck?! You need to fire the person who messed with the software, what a fail! And I know I'm not the only one, YouTube videos all about it. Who authorized the nonsensical changes?

Verified Purchase:Yes
Think twice before you buy. This machine is great but only if you subscribe their Cricut Access. With out this subscription your machine is worthless. Other companies offer free software with a product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had nothing but pure joy using the Maker 4. I love all of the materials that come in the box and being able to make something right away, the clean, crips cuts, the faster mat loading time and the cutting speed. I am impressed with each and every material that I have cut so far. Those include chipboard, wood veneer, cardstock, vinyl, iron on, stickers and engraving.
It's a fantastic choice for anyone's needs or wants. It has performed with excellent consistency.

Awesome Machine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was gifted the machine to test, and I Love the Maker 4.
I tested the machine out with a variety of Cricut materials and tools: cardstock, iron-on, regular vinyl, value vinyl, chipboard, Kraftboard, foil, pens, holographic vinyl, 28 lb. copier paper, PTC, foil posterboard, the foiling tool, the rotary blade, the knife blade, and the engraving tool.
I am super impressed with the speed of the machine. With the increased speed I was wondering how the machine would perform; however, I was amazed at the precision of the cuts, foiling, engraving and drawing. It did not disappoint.
I highly recommend the Maker 4.
