How exciting. I love that it is bigger than the Joy, but smaller,than the others. I can’t wait to see your other videos on the new sticker and vinyl paper.

They made a cheap one as a “gateway drug” to pull people in.

@missychan63 10 месяцев назад

But then they couldn't possibly have made as much money! I really wish they would get design space 100% before they come out with yet another machine. (I'm not the only one that feels this way.) I've been with them since their very first 6-in cutting machine came out and I've literally had almost every machine they make.(including the Imagine- apparently I got one of the 12 that actually worked and I'm still using it today and love it!) About three machines ago I finally gave up on design space and jumped the fence to Silhouette- and I'm not sorry. At that time the Maker had just come out and I swore I would not give them another nickel.Welllll.... things change. 😅 I got my Maker- the original - and I love it! I went ahead because I found one on sale at a ridiculous price, in pink... How could I say no? I wanted to be able to cut more/thicker materials that the Silhouette just can't do . I now run both brands for different reasons and will probably continue to do so- but I don't think I'll be buying another Cricut machine. I did indulge the grandkids with a Joy, so they would leave the bigger ones alone, lol- and again, I'm glad I did. They love it, I love having it right next to me on my desk for smaller things, and the software is fine for anything I would cut with it. It's just taking them way too long to get their software up to speed with other cutting machines- I don't know why they refuse to give us the things we've been asking for since day one but instead continue to come out with bigger and better machines... If they had better software more people would buy the machines! They also need to get their customer service fixed. I'm not blaming the actual people that answer the phone, they can only work with what they are taught/ given but come on now... Thousands of people need you on the weekend and you're not there. You say that you want small businesses to use your machines, but we can't afford to wait until your phone lines open again on Monday, and then sit on hold for 2 hours only to be told they have no idea what's wrong with our machine and they need to escalate the call. Seriously?

@AprilShowers73 10 месяцев назад

THIS I am excited about. I am a tumbler maker and do a lot of my own designs. My little Joy is my WORKHORSE for names, etc. This will be a game-changer in my world. I do a LOT of decals and print then cut is what I use the most. This I am going to buy! I actually squealed!

@lynnebizlyne436 10 месяцев назад

@janicebaker58 10 месяцев назад

I think Print Then Cut is the best addition, but also the ability to use basic Letter or A4 sized paper. One thing I would love Cricut to address is the ability to use Print Then Cut with SMALLER paper sizes to reduce waste. My printer, like many, can print on 5X7 4X6 and 3.5X5 paper sizes. When I'm doing small Print Then Cut Designs I would love to be able to use those smaller printed sizes rather than waste a full sheet of letter size paper. Now I have to either take the time to find other items to fill the sheet (which is time consuming and means I can't just get on with my project) or else waste all the excess!

@AngieHolden 10 месяцев назад

That is an interesting idea! I have never thought about that!

@scrapinmaniac 10 месяцев назад

For cut and print projects I prefer the scan and cut and not a cricut product. For creating custom projects, cricut is better because of design space. However the scan and cut PC Canvas version is very good.

@missychan63 10 месяцев назад

@@scrapinmaniacif you truly want the ability to create custom projects, Silhouette is the way to go- their software is head and shoulders above Cricut. (I have both machines and use them for different reasons.)

@royaldiadem762 10 месяцев назад

I have watched the Cricut from its inception and I was overwhelmed then about purchasing. If the purchase was worth the investment and would I just buy it and the box collect dust. Fast forward, I purchased the Joy during the pandemic because it wasn’t as ominous to me as the other machines. I found myself doing bigger jobs and working harder, not smarter so I purchased the Explore3. I am grateful for the Joy getting me over my fears and into the Cricut world. This is a nice machine and I can’t think of any reason I would need it just yet😂 Cricut Joy, take a bow🎊🎉 and Welcome Cricut Joy Extra!!🎊🤸🏾‍♂️🎉

@missychan63 10 месяцев назад

There are easy workarounds that allow you to use the original joy for print and cut. We've been doing it since the second week we had our machine 😂.

@missychan63 10 месяцев назад

Give them time- they will give us all of those tools, and you can be sure that they won't fit any other machine. That's another reason I have such an issue with this company- they'll do anything to make sure they get every last nickel they can out of their customers and I simply don't believe that's the way to do business. Unless there's a physical limitation- all the tools should fit all the machines across the board...

I want to use that feature as I have used on my Maker 3 to make better cuts. I look forward to more videos with other materials.

Just found you on RU-vid. I have the new Cricut Joy and would love it if someone posted a youtube on how to make labels with the Cricut Joy, start to finish, for someone who never used any Cricut machine before. My main purpose was to create pretty and practical labels for organizing things. Since I've never owned a Cricut before, I don't know how to get started and get familiar with everything. After labels, maybe I'll move on to other things.

I am behind the times and just learning about this now. I have a Maker, but I rarely if ever use it for large projects anymore. And the only times I ever used any of the special materials that only the Maker can cut is when I was intentionally trying to get more from the Maker - not because I really wanted to do those projects. It is so huge in my small craft room. Joy Xtra will be perfect for me. I will keep the Maker though just in case.

I wish I had waited an extra 2 years for this one. Especially since I've only used my Joy twice. Life just got crazy busy and hadn't the time to use it. But now that my time is getting more free time, I would have liked this one. Though it's not needed since I do have the larger one. I just like the portability of the smaller ones. I do think this one will be great for people just starting out. I like the sticker feature on it. Plus, it's much easier to store.

Great review! Thank you! I’m brand new to this and I think this is going to be a perfect place to start. Will the sticker paper work in the explore 3? Does that machine cut out stickers?

@AngieHolden 10 месяцев назад

Yes it will!

@808Gurl 10 месяцев назад

Omylord, already have 3, want this one too 😂

It is addictive!

This is interesting, I am very much interested in the print and cut feature, I do have an Air 2, but this is good for quick jobs.. will be interested to see more videos on PnC when you get around to it. I'm not impressed that it does not come with a mat, although a lot of people seem to be gravitating to vinyl, this is not for everyone, so a mat should be included especially since it is a new machine design type and size, and can not use the other 'joy' mat, also not happy that they are not migrating across to wi-fi, on this and their other new machine, it is more reliable, and as others say would be good if a scoring tool were useable in this machine... that all said, I am still interested in the print and cut ability and will be looking forward to those videos.

Hey Angie, man do I love your videos! You have taught me so much over the years! Can you tell me if this takes the same power cord as my Joy? I’ve already ordered it however it won’t be here till Tuesday. My cord died on my Joy but I don’t wanna order a new one if this takes the same. THANKS AND KEEP THESE AWESOME VIDEOS COMIN’! -Midnight

@AngieHolden 6 месяцев назад

It does!

@bobkorn2396 День назад

How do you repeat a cut with this machine? I've searched everywhere and cannot find any info. Thanks for your great videos.

@AngieHolden День назад

You can't unfortunately. They changed Design Space and it is no longer an option.

@sandreawhite7534 10 месяцев назад

I hope they stand by this product. Any roller issues anyone?

@AngieHolden 10 месяцев назад

I have not had any roller issues.

I’d love to learn the max size you can print for print n cut. I have some projects that I’d like to use print n cut for but need to know how limited my print size would be. I couldn’t do it on my maker cuz the print n cut size was too small

@AngieHolden 10 месяцев назад

The new sizes are here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q7KpssKUN6Q.html

I wasn’t going to buy it because I have the Cricut Joy and the Cricut Explore Air 2. But because I really like my Joy, I decided to buy this because it has other features that my Joy and my Explore does not have.

@dwilloughby1969 10 месяцев назад

I wish this machine could have given us more tools to use like a blade or embossing tool.

@AngieHolden 10 месяцев назад

I think it is the force that it can apply more than anything else.

@Melly.K11 10 месяцев назад

I bought a regular Joy not too long ago, to use for smaller projects for when I don't want to pull out my Maker. Still, I do really like the size of the Xtra. I probably wouldn't buy one for myself at this point, but I bet my mother would like one of these. She's been interested in the Cricut machines, but was too concerned that the Explore or Maker machines are too complicated for her. Would you say this is just as simple as the original Joy for someone that isn't really all that technically inclined? She'd probably never use the print and cut feature (just cut paper and vinyl), but having the wider machine would give her more project flexibility I'd think. Maybe Santa will stop at Cricut this Christmas, on the way to her house :)

@AngieHolden 10 месяцев назад

Yep! Definitely still REALLY simple and beginner friendly.

@cindymiminas2147 10 месяцев назад

Thank you for your videos and sharing all the new products. How did you like the new printable vinyl I gold? I’ve tried others and find that the print will smudge, ruining the sticker. Did this hold up to printing? Was there a wait time to ensure it’s dry?

@AngieHolden 10 месяцев назад

No smudging! It held up great! It was dry right after printing!

@rmm9110 9 месяцев назад

Thank you for a very informative video. I was wondering if you move your machine do you have to recalibrate it? I know you are supposed to do that with the Maker. Thank you

@AngieHolden 9 месяцев назад

I move my machines (including my Maker) all the time and do not recalibrate.

@carolynspringer-smith8413 10 месяцев назад

Angie, I would love to purchase this machine, however, I have an Air 2 and I'm trying to get into Rhinestones. Will this cut rhinestone flock, i.e. Magic Flock or RockIt Flock? And the most important question, will Design Space ever have the ability to design rhinestone templates? It is such a pain to take your design from Silhouette Studio into Cricket to cut. Especially having to make sure your hole sizes are correct. Thank you for your brilliant videos! You are a master at teaching, describing, and just all around knowledge about whatever you present.

@AngieHolden 10 месяцев назад

It should cut rhinestone flock if the flock you are using cuts using the fine point blade. I don't know of any plans to add templates but heck who knows any more!

@Rondaa1 10 месяцев назад

I bought joy last year, ( new to crafting) and I wish this one had been available so I didn't have to buy the maker ad I learned how to use the machine and realized the many limitations. How are you supposed to make cards and envelopes without a way to score?

@AngieHolden 10 месяцев назад

No score on this one either. You need an explore or maker for that.

@letiziatampone195 5 месяцев назад

Hi thank you for the great explanation. I've just bought my joy Xtra and I love it. I have a question though. Is it possible to make some foiled stickers using the print and cut feature? I don't mean stickers that are foiled with a laminator but stickers that you print then foil with cricut foil tool and then cut with joy Xtra. I tried to do it yesterday but I didn't manage to.

@AngieHolden 5 месяцев назад

Yes you can! I made some here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FR1KnW-2JOY.html

@letiziatampone195 5 месяцев назад

Oh, I will have a look, thank you!

@jerritanner275 10 месяцев назад

I wish Cricut would just fix software flexibility - like print then cut restrictions & the inability to export creations to a file, specially PNG.k

@AngieHolden 10 месяцев назад

There have been MANY improvements to print then cut size and it is not larger than ever. Also, the software team and the product team are two different teams so you should expect announcements from both.

@jerritanner275 10 месяцев назад

@@AngieHolden thanks, Angie. Yes, the print/cut size is improved, but still wastes sublimation paper.m

@lynnebizlyne436 10 месяцев назад

I agree, the inability to export really stinks.
