It is a great machine. For years even when Cricut started I’ve been teaching how to use it. Once you know how to use Design Space , you will never have problems at all.
This is my first Cricut machine and I am thoroughly impressed. I knew that it would be an awesome experience using it for the first time but I was amazed out how quick it cut the initial decal that was included! I have a learning curve ahead of me but I am excited to use it to its full potential.
I had a maker, and was intrigued by a youtube video stating it cut faster and could use two directions when cutting. That cutting allowed for cleaner intricate cuts. I love it. All the housing, blade types from my maker fit the cricut4. I really enjoy working with cardstock and vinyl. I also like the software upgrades.
Definitely a great product! Super easy and fast to set up! Huge improvement over Cricut air 2 and anyone looking for something that increases your efficiency and time should absolutely try this product!
The only "pick" I have with the Maker 4 is that it always requires more pressure when cutting. I would think the default should take that into account. I appreciate the speed though.
