![]() If you want your Cricut cheaper, order online. ![]() Just be aware that you will NOT be able to use a coupon on Cricut machines or Cricut supplies-they are always excluded. I’ve bought all of my Cricuts from the store like this because I’m too impatient to wait for one to be delivered to me! You can often get great prices on certain models at these stores, too, as they often have sales. Each of these stores typically have an entire aisle dedicated to Cricut and you can go out and get one right now. No craft store in town? Most Wal-Marts carry Cricuts, too. If you want your Cricut faster, you can go to your local craft store such as Michaels, Joann, Hobby Lobby, or A.C. What’s best for you depends on if you want it faster, or want it cheaper. What is the best place to buy a Cricut from? Avoid these, or you’ll be left out of the fun. These don’t show up often on Amazon and never at the Cricut shop, but you may see them advertised in the Facebook Marketplace or on Craig’s list… or even gifted from a well-intentioned friend. Older Cricuts to avoid include the Cricut Expression, Cricut Imagine, Cricut Mini, and the original Cricut. If both are out of your price range, the Cricut Joy is a wonderful beginner machine that will do all sorts of wonderful things! You can get a Joy for about $179 through Amazon or the Cricut shop.ĭo NOT get one of the older Cricut machines, as they cannot use Cricut Design Space which is essential for creating truly amazing things, including the free projects on my blog. The list price of a Cricut Explore Air 2 is $249, but you can get it consistently for $199 through Amazon or the Cricut shop. If you cannot afford the Maker, or are 100% sure you won’t ever want to cut anything but cardstock or vinyl, then the Cricut Explore Air is a great and very affordable machine. List price is $399, but you can consistently find them for $349 or less on Amazon or in the Cricut shop. The Maker, however, costs more than the Joy or Explore. If you get the Maker, you can do all the things and won’t be left out of new adaptive tools, like the engraving and debossing tools, that are coming down the line. I get asked this all the time, and I have an easy answer: The Cricut Maker is the best Cricut to buy. Here are links to all the different Cricut models so you can check them out:Īh, the million dollar question. I have a Cricut Maker which I bought on release day in August 2017 which I adore. And thanks to its adaptive tool system, the Maker can be expanded with additional tools that can engrave, deboss, perforate, and score better. The Cricut Maker can cut everything that the Cricut Explore series can cut, as well as fabric, thin wood (like basswood), and crepe paper. The Cricut Maker is the newest family of Cricut cutting machines and it has more advanced technology for more cutting options. I have two Cricut Explore series machines - an Explore Air and an Explore Air 2. The Explore series comes in three versions: the Explore One (least expensive, requires a USB connection to work), the Explore Air (the middle ground, works with USB and bluetooth), and the Explore Air 2 (the best of this family, like the Explore Air but a little faster). ![]() The Explore can also hold accessories like pens (so you can draw with pens on material) and a scoring stylus (to put score lines in papercrafts). The Cricut Explore’s technology is a little older and it uses fine-point or deep-cut blades to cut thin things like paper, cardstock, vinyl, and so on. If you need to cut thicker, denser, bigger stuff, you want an Explore or Maker. The Cricut Joy is for fast cards, labels, and decals. The best thing about it is that it can do very long cuts on Smart Vinyl without a mat, cut and write on unique labels with new pens and writeable vinyl, and make super-fast cards using its Card Mat. The Cricut Joy is newest cutting machine - it is small and portable and can do simple cuts and draw with a pen. There are three main Cricut machines - the Joy, the Explore, and the Maker!
