Customer Ratings & Reviews

I had a Cricut YEARS ago and couldn’t wait to get this model. I love the software and ease of the Explore 3! I made wedding favors, cards and a couple tee shirts already. So worth the money!

My husband bought this for me for Christmas and i absolutely love it. Already working on projects! Well worth the money!

Worth the upgrade! If you get it at the right time, it's worth the upgrade. The Good: Quiet, faster. The Bad: no variation in machine color, the set-up takes longer and is frustrating (not as easy as 1,2,3 like explore air 2). Imo: You will have software issues if you are running M1 and/or Windows 11 running on an unsupported pc. There is a workaround for this. I can't speak for supported windows 11 users. not sure how that process works out. For ***Unofficial Windows 11 Users***, if your pc doesn't recognize the machine, go to device manager, you should see the USB drive updater. If you update it here and it still doesn't work, right-click on the taskbar over the USB icon and open the folder. You should see an image that says Explore Air 3. But it's useless. Right-click and connect through Bluetooth. Design software should be downloaded from cricut[dot]com/setup The design software should pick it up by Bluetooth. If that doesn't work or if you want to skip all this: TLDR: the fast way to set up the machine is to use your phone. don't use mac m1 or windows 11 to set up & register the machine. I just saved you an hour or two of frustration, still don't get why it's not as easy as explore air 2 or every other cricut machine.

I originally started my Cricut journey with a joy, but decided I wanted more. I love this model, it’s easy and fun to use. My only wish is that they would make an engraving tool for this model. If you are looking for a crafting tool this is it. Great product at a great price.

Love it ! Very easy to use. Using to make party decor.

The explore 3 is a great cutting machine! I had the 2 for a few years prior so I’m familiar with the machine. It’s faster and quieter than the older model. I don’t really care to use the smart materials personally however it seems like it will be handy for others. Plus Best Buy price matched for me from a competitor so that was a bonus!

Better then my last. It’s definitely faster and cuts way more things than my old one I will definitely have fun with this one since I can cut more material.

I love I can do so many thing , yo seller I recommend

Amazing! Upgraded from the Cricut Air 2 and so happy I did. Cuts vinyl in half the time compared to the Air 2. It's easy to use and the new smart vinyl option is great. I love the ability to make custom shirts, stickers, or cards quickly with Design Space.

I love my new cricut. This is my first vinyl it came so so not too bad for a first timer. I am still watching YouTube videos for help.

Enjoy using my Cricut able to make wonderful designs for shirts and hoodies

Love this cricut! It cuts so many surfaces! The possibilities are endless!

Making all my wedding invitations with this! I love it so far.

The Cricut was very easy to use and setup. It is our first Cricut and we love it. Our only issue was that we could not get the Bluetooth to work, so we have to have it connected with the USB.

My wife is really amazed by it. The machine itself is easy. But it is hard to navigate on the app. You have to watch a lot of YouTube videos and learn from people who know how to use the app. I'm not too happy that we have to pay for a subscription to use the cool templates on the app.

The best craft machine i ever had! I can make all kinds of cute things!! So excited to begin my craft journey!!

This is the best Christmas gift. It works so smoothly and very easy to understand.

Excellent product, I use every day and I Love It, is super easy to use and you can create all u can imagine… the price is worth it.

Excellent! I love my Cricut! Makes personalizing items so easy!

Purchased this as a gift for Mother's Day. The Circuit arrived well-packaged and unboxing was easy (and exciting, to be honest.) My mom loves this thing. There is a learning curve - as there is with most worthwhile tools/tech - but the items she's creating with it are simply awesome. The software (Design Space) that partners with the Circuit is good for what it is, but highly recommend designing in something like Adobe Illustrator or Procreate first, then importing. Also, keep in mind this will take up a good chunk of desk space, so in order to maximize the real estate on my mom's desk, I purchased a printer stand from Amazon. It now sits about chest-height, and no space is lost beneath it. My mom uses several organizers for Cricut tools and the paper she uses for its projects all fit neatly beneath the stand. Additional investment, yes, but in my view, a necessary one.
