Review: A little perseverance was required, but the machine itself is very impressive - I'm a novice. This is my first crafting machine of the sort. It took some work, but I was able to create some really fantastic stickers. Here are some of the roadbumps I ran into. 1. Bluetooth? Ugh, why doesn't it just use wireless? Better yet, how about an ethernet port? I ended up running a USB cable down a hallway with a blutetooth dongle on the end. I guess they don't figure people will try to edit on a PC in one room and cut in another. If I had a tablet, there's no way I would use that for Cricut Design Space. It's tedious enough with keyboard and mouse. 2. I was dealing with entirely imported jpg images, but I wanted to round the corners slightly. There are several decent youtube tutorials on how to make a template object that could slice off corners. The frustrating problem I ran into was that sometimes the slice would work, sometimes not. For whatever reason, it was often not slicing the upper left corner. If I rebuilt my template (which takes a few minutes), it would slice maybe 25% of the time and after a successful slice, the template wouldn't work a second time, so I would keep making the template over and over. This was very tedious for the dozens of different stickers I was trying to make. Eventually I had the idea of scaling everything up, then slicing, then shrinking it all back down and that solved the problem entirely. 3. So I bought Cricut's Printable Vinyl. This stuff is pretty amazing, but there aren't many helpful details on the product or on the website about the product. I searched up some youtube videos and some people are using a standard mat, some people are using a lightgrip mat. Given the color of the packaging (green), I'd think to use the standard mat, but how about just making that clear on the packaging or website? Also, what's the weight of the paper so I can set my printer up correctly? Again, not on the packaging or the website. I was a little worried that the vinyl cuts might be a little rough, since I'd been making test cuts on paper for a few days and cuts through paper were a little iffy. But using the correct setting (custom, printable vinyl), the cuts came out perfect. Also, I eventually learned to use a standard mat and set my HP Officejet 200 Mobile to Specialty Paper - Matte. I was extremely impressed with the results. Cutting on something other than paper really showed off how incredible this machine is. The Cricut brand Printable Vinyl is a very high quality product and even when I stuck it to some Lego bricks slightly misaligned (several times), I was able to pull it off and re-stick it without damaging the vinyl at all. And it doesn't leave any residue either. Lots of work just for a one-of gift idea, but now that I have it, I can probably find uses for this machine in the future. Review: Relatively easy to setup and get running - I was ecstatic to finally get my Cricut Explore Air 2 in the mail and get it set up. Packaging was nice and secure and looked like a solid product coming out of the box. The packaging includes everything I needed to get started as well as some starter paper to try projects. It includes a few pages of very quick and easy set up as well as a more detailed booklet. They send you to their website to download the Cricut design space software. I'll admit, I had some difficulty following the tutorial for the first project and ended up restarting the program and couldn't find the initial tutorial project again. While that would normally be an issue, the software was very intuitive to use. Within a few minutes, I was able to get a set of stickers ready to print. After a short and easy calibration process, I was able to print my first batch of stickers. I'm very excited to continue to use the Cricut! This is going to save me lots of time as well as prevent sore hands from having to cut out tons of stickers! Would definitely recommend. ## Features - ART AND CRAFT CUTTING MADE SIMPLE, EVEN FOR BEGINNERS - Designed with simplicity and value in mind, bust out your DIY dreams and create fresh styles for your T-shirts, home decor, and more with the Cricut Explore Air 2 classic cutting machine - CUTS 100+ MATERIALS WITH EASE – The included Premium Fine-Point Blade lets crafters make precise, intricate cuts from a variety of popular materials like cardstock, vinyl decal, HTV iron-on and more.
