Great machine
I love the Maker 4. I bought it to use when making smaller projects (I have the Venture which I 10 out of 10 recommend for large projects) because the speed and accuracy of cuts. The cuts have been perfect and I have been using it for about 6 months now. I find myself using it more than I expected because it does such a great job with veneer, chipboard and lots of other...

Think Twice
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.

Easy set up
After I got everything set up I was so excited to try it out but I am very confused about how to use it. I think once I figure it out I will have fun using it.

The Maker 4 is great.
Love my Maker 4 it works much quicker than my original Maker. I also like that if I don’t want to use a mat I don’t hand to.

So glad I splurged!
I recently bought the Maker 4 and haven’t been disappointed! In fact I wish I would have splurged sooner. The machine is much faster than my original Maker. I was concerned about being Bluetooth connected but I haven’t had any issues. I would highly suggest the Maker 4

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 abou...

Fabulous features!!
I purchased the Cricut Maker 4 for Christmas this year. My first project is to put names on new Stockings to hang. I am a beginner so any tips would be wonderful.

Maker 4 and Design Studio
I like the maker 4 because it cuts faster, but the contour part of design studio does not cut the way you contour your image. In other words when you remove parts of the image some of the parts you removed still cut? I don’t know if it just design studio our Maker 4.

Horrible experience
I’ve replaced the machine once. This one is worse than my last one. It cuts offset, doesn’t recognize tools sometimes, knife blade shreds everything, the fine blade shreds the paper and stickers. I’ve talked to techs. They are mailing me a free knife blade. Every day is a struggle. I’ve had this machine 1 month!

Set up size on mat
I used vinyl cut very often for my bussines. But, it really hard and confusing for set up the size on mat. It wasn't come out with the size i wanted it.

Never knew I needed a Cricut, but OMG, I DID!
I bought my Cricut Maker 4 several months ago, mainly to print vinyl lettering for balloons. OMG, what I have found in the process is its unbelievable abilities. I'm in the cake artistry business and what it has done for me in terms of cake toppers, gingerbread house templates, just to name a few...I am beyond happy and have "sold" several friends on getting one.

Hands on classes.
It would be wonderful if there were classes offered rather than having to watch videos that consume so much time. Public libraries have spaces available that classes could be taught.

Fun
We have had fun so far with the Cricut maker 4. A few learning curves, but not too difficult. Lots of options for creating!
