    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?

    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!

    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.

    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!!🎊🤸🏾‍♂️🎉

    Angie this is awesome new --I went from my JOY to an Explorer Air 2 and have not used my Joy as much since. But this xtra is something I will have to think about because I still love the versatility of the smaller size to take to my friend's home and craft together. Now that this machine does everything, I use my explorer for what a game changer. Thank you for demonstrating the advantages of this machine.

    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 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.

    Thank you, Angie, for stating the video is sponsored by Cricut. So many KZreadrs have been confused about this -- if a free product is sent, the video is sponsored. I've even seen KZreadrs deny that the video is sponsored, right after stating the product was sent to them free. I attended a workshop from a lawyer at Creativation, and she stressed this heavily: the FTC is cracking down on this; we must declare this sponsorship on the video. Well done!

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.

    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.

    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.

    Hi, I have asked but I guess I'm not asking the correct way. On all other Cricut machines that I have used, including the Joy, I was able to repeat the cut job if it just needed to be cut a little more without unloading the project. When I was cutting a project recently, I just needed that specific one to cut again without unloading on the JoyXtra. I do not see the option to repeat the job nor a way to on my PC or tablet. It automatically unloads the project, and I can't get to align exactly the same to cut twice. I know that I can go in and add custom settings for a material adding a second cut, but this isn't for every cut using the same material, just needs a crisper cut that one time. How do I do that? If that is no longer available on the Joy line, what are some things that users can do instead?

  • @AngieHolden
