Cricut Joy™ 2 Smart Die-cutting Machine Deluxe Bundle, Coral

I love my new Cricut Joy 2. I'm so impressed it can do print then cut! But I'm loving the portability of it. 2 pounds! So easy to carry. I've been taking it to craft retreats. I can easily cut or write a short journaling box or a great title for a page. I could do stickers if I also take my printer, which I likely will. I need to find out if any sticker paper will do. The absolute ONLY thing I don't like is having to change my pen to the blade and vice versa instead of having two places for them like my Maker 4. I love this cute machine!

I loved the original Joy and I was not sure if the switch was worth it. So far it has been. I've started collage artwork and leaving the Joy 2 out on my desk has made it more convenient to use. I use it more frequently than my original Joy and it's been a super handy tool for the projects I'm working on. The BEST part is that I didn't have to purchase any new mats or materials.

I bought this as a second machine. I also own a maker 3. I love my maker 3 but wanted a little machine to get out for just little crafts as i do not have a designated crafting room. Plus I really wanted one! I love this little crafting helper! I use it often for cards, decals etc. And have also used it and my maker 3 for the same project, cutting the smaller things with my joy 2 and the bigger things with my maker 3. If you are on the fence about getting a joy 2 i would highly recommend.

This is a GREAT little machine! My first project was a vinyl wall quote that was 50” x 73”! I used 10’ rolls of permanent smart vinyl. The machine cut it all out faster than I expected! I’m SO HAPPY with this little machine! I can’t wait to try stickers for my kids!

I am new and a complete beginner in the Cricut world.I am an avid card maker, making greeting cards for 20 years. I bought the Cricut Joy2 as an addition to my card making repertoire. I used my Cricut to make several cards; birthday, Christmas, and Halloween. It is easy to use, and there are lots of helpful tutorials on the internet. It cuts and draws quickly with precision.I love the size and how mobil it is. Doesn't take up much space to use or store.The only down side is there aren't many "free" images and cutting patterns included with the machine. I have started to upload free images from the internet, and using them as well as the "free" images included with the machine. Over all, a very good purchase!

I really like the size and ease of my joy as someone who doesn't have a lot of space and don't always want to pull out my larger machine. However I am very disappointed in the lack of trial time for Design Space. I feel that with a purchase of a machine, at least 6 months of DS subscription should be included.

I bought this as a gift. I wanted it sent to a different address. I was very careful and double checked the shipping address before I clicked order. Your company shipped it to my address instead. This is the second time that happened. It cost me another $20 to send it to my Granddaughter

Since I already have the original Joy, I found this Joy 2 seemed more cheaply built and I miss being able to close the lid. I was also disappointed when I tried Print Then Cut, which is the reason for the purchase, because I found that I need to get the longer mat, which didn't come with the machine.

Couldn't get it to connect or update firmware. Tried multiple devices including iPhone, android, PC, MacBook and iPad.

The Cricut Joy 2 I got is constantly disconnecting. I have tried every single troubleshooting method with no luck. The laptop is never more than 2 feet away from the Cricut in any direction and still it continues. I have tried connecting it to my desktop PC in the event that the laptop is the issue, no luck. It connects just fine when nothing is printing and as soon as I start printing it goes through the most annoying cycle of connect and disconnect. I have no choice but to give it 1 star because I can't even use it. I have not been able to complete any project.
