Worst cricut
This is the worst final cutter I’ve ever used. I’ll never buy another product from these people again. It only works when it wants to.

My Go-To Machine
The Cricut Venture has honestly been a game changer for me. The precision is top tier—I can trust it to cut clean, even on detailed designs, which is super important for my paper crafts and layered pieces.
What really stands out though is the speed. When I have multiple orders or I’m working on party decor, it helps me get things done so much faster without sacrificing...

This was a great machine until they stopped making the light grip 24" x 28" mat. Now I can't use it for cutting large sheets of stickers. The standard grip mat is waaaayyy too sticky and is next to impossible to get the stickers off without loosing the backing or spending all day doing it. It's really a disappointment. I now have to purchase a competitor machine that ca...

Venture - great for volume and scalability
Cool machine, easy to setup. There were some issues with documentation and figuring out some features, nothing YouTube couldn't solve. I would like to see more guidance on how to use different materials (like leather or wood), for example with cutter to use, settings, and just general machine setup and Designer setup. Otherwise, it is a powerful tool to have in your ...

Venture
Bought the Venture about 5 months ago if I knew then what I know now I would not have bought it. It don't do good with other vinyl that you have cut down to fit. It will eat it up.

Amazing process
I only wish the large cardstock was readily available as it defeats the purpose of the venture to be able to cut out larger projects
Without a source for full size cardstock compatible with the venture it becomes useless .

Not Happy
I bought the Venture 1 week ago and have had nothing but problems. I contacted support and have had no success in getting issues resolved. Very disappointed in this machine and Cricut support.

This machine is awesome
Love this machine. It’s so fast and the cuts are perfect. Projects big or small this can do it. Even smart materials cut nicely. Highly recommend getting the stand too.

USB and Bluetooth dont run with Windows 11
I cannot use it because it will not link to my windows 11 pc. So there is no communication to or from it. So I am not happy at all because I have yet to be able to use it and cannot get help that fixes this problem. Horrible directions came with the product also. I had to research online to find directions.

Glad to own it but few gripes
My first Cricut - we always buy the bigger better product or we find ourself re-buying it later. I’m learning how to use it but I have two gripes… every “Make” rechecks that my Cricut is connected even tho I just cut with it.
Also the fact that I can’t use a 12x12 mat even tho it will take 12x12 vinyl or smart paper. Major design fail for me

Very Amazing Venture!
I absolutely love my new Cricut Venture! The cuts are.clean; it cuts everything so quickly; and it is so easy to load and unload! I am making even more projects now that I have my Venture. I still use my Cricut Maker 4 daily too. Both are amazing products.

Cutting and speed is amazing, very BIG
I love it, at first I did feel intimidated by it because of its size and didn't realize how much space I need for it but once I made room it that feeling went away. It works best with smart products but the down fall on that is transferring your project and the price on smart products. It is a very loud machine. Cutting and speed is amazing.

Speedy and Efficient
I purchased this a few months ago and finally set it up. I used my Macbook and the process was fairly simple. I cut 13 feet at one time and it took about 15 minutes. The design was not very simple but it was no problem for the Venture.
