Love how you got right to the video and didn’t have a 5 min intro! Great info thank you 😃
Thank you! I do it in all my videos, long intros annoy me 😂 Glad you appreciate it too 💙
Just to mention the maker 3 only cuts that fast with the SMART material. So if you mainly use standard vynil, they are next to, if not the same cutting time.
I've been looking at Cricut videos all day today trying to find the right press and cutter. I enjoyed your video the best because of the joy I see. Gonna get the Maker 3, I may need the long cuts someday. Subbed, will be back! All the best from Seattle, US
Welcome and thanks so much for your support!! Hope you enjoy your new machine!
Wow you're videos are always so informative and accurate, thank you for doing all the research for us!
You are the sweetest! Thank you so much
This is the best comparison video that I have come across to date. Thank you.
Thank you so much! Very much appreciated 💙
Yes, I understand the sound difference. I craft well into the wee hours of the night as well!
Im glad I included it then! :) I too am a night owl hehe
Great video, the fourth one I watched, and the first one that made sense and was explained clearly! Also, recently lost a good friend from South Africa, and listening to your accent brings back lovely memories! Can't wait to watch more of your videos!
Ah Mary I am so incredibly sorry for your loss! Sending you love 💙
Thank you also so much for your kind words, means a lot to me!
I opted for the Maker 3, even though it was way more expensive. I do love the machine but I was mildly disappointed that they included no mat whatsoever. Almost understandable since it can cut without a mat. The lack of the cutting wheel, that is included with the less expensive maker, has me livid! Cricut is showing their greed again. The mats and cutting wheels are expensive for the consumer. Not nearly as expensive for Cricut. They are cheaping out to the tune of $100 for the end user. It probably cost them less than $20 for the mats and cutter. Add to that is the fact the Maker 3 is a couple hundred more than the Maker, makes this offensive. Cricut wont respond to any messages either. Pure greed from Cricut.
I definitely hear you on the price point! Its my main gripe too, but Cricut is not known to be in the lower price bracket, so I guess they are at least true to their brand! ;) Luckily for us, the higher price tag comes with an extremely well made machine, so at least we dont feel like its a complete waste!
I think it is a bit short sighted not include mats with the Maker 3. Sure they are trying to move crafters towards the smart materials however these come at premium cost with more wastage. For those in countries that have very limited access to the smart materials then mats are still very necessary.
I dont disagree with you! Mats arent expensive, and they should include at least one! It is a bit short sighted for sure, and many dont realise this before they unbox the machine and want to use it 😞
Great video ,perfectly shows the differences between the machines
Thank you so much! 😍💙
Excellent video! Thank you ❤
You are so welcome!
I have an Explore Air 2, and I just had to get a new one from Cricut after only having it since December. I started using it in Jan. So I was pretty disappointed that I had to get a new machine already. I have been thinking about getting an upgraded model. Seems like the original Maker is on sale right now, but I am still not sure. I like the quieter feature, and faster. I don't plan on using smart materials, as I don't like the Cricut branded products for the most part. I am still on the fence about which one I want even after this fantastic video. lol
If you arent interested in cutting long decals and cutting without a mat, I would save the extra money and get the Maker, its only slightly quieter, and smart materials are nice, but its not the be-all of the machines! :)
To cut normal material you have go buy the mats separately, in addition to the extra blades that come with the 3
You will have to buy mats and the fabric blade separately if you buy the Maker 3 yes!
Rubber replacement tutorial pls
Thats quite far out of my scope of skills unfortunately.
Great video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Hi, thank you for this video, quick question, for the matless cutting, is that subjective to cricut smart vinyl, or would it work if you use a different brand of vinyl, thank you , also the extra speed is that also just because of matless. If you have to use a mat is the speed still faster?
Thank you
Faster cutting is for matless only :)
You can cut other vinyl without a mat, but I wouldnt recommend it too often as if you accidentally cut through the backing you can damage your machine
OMW! I cant keep up. So exciting. You need a bigger craft room. 😉
hahah I know!!! It's getting smaller and smaller 😂
Did your Cricut lockup and blink when updating software. If so how do I get older software?
Your Cricut will not work during a software update. Best to leave it alone for a few minutes and let it update, If issues persist, I would suggest reaching out to member care
Can you also use mats if you want to, using standard materials with the Cricut maker 3?
You absolutely can!
What kind of iPad or computer are u using? I’m trying to decide between the Maker and the 3. Can you buy just the different tips and load it in the housing? Thanks so much
I am using an iPad Air 4 and a very strong Ryzen 7 pc, You can definitely buy just the tips, check out my video for the engraving tip to see how its done :)
I've watched your video like 3 times already. I still can't decide between maker or maker 3. What a dilemma 😅
😂 You have a cameo that can cut matless, so you can consider saving yourself a few extra bucks and getting the Maker! Spend the balance on the tools 😍
@@KellyRossouw you are a genius 👏!!!!
@@christeenleeful hahaha I have my moments! :D
You are a very bad influence now my wife has both a silhoutte 3, and a cricut maker.
Love the video very well presented with differences clearly indicated.
haha yesss! Love that :D Its a great machine!
Yes a perfect influence. Love my toys.
smart material is just a money grab for them... dont fall in to these gimmick.
It is very useful to be able to cut without a mat, but it is a slight benefit, so not everyone will see it as such :)
@@KellyRossouw hi may I know the smart material expensive or I can use other materials replaced it?
Take off your crazy fake eyelashes! Very distracting
😂
That's a tad rude.
@@laurabousfield8196 I did not mean it to be rude. I was trying to let her know, her fake lashes take away her whole presentation work.
It's no different then if someone had food on their chin, and you tell the person so they dont look redicious.
It was NOT to offend her, It is professorial/ business tweak in presentation.
My appologies if taken that way.
Live and let live. Why are you Being obnoxious and rude to someone who’s trying to help all of us here
I think you look absolutely beautiful!! Even better yet, her beautiful personality shines through her pretty lashes! Thanks for the excellent work! Much love
