Cricut Maker 3 Smart Die-Cutting Machine + Starter Essential Bundle Mist

I upgraded to the Maker 3 from the Cricut Maker to get a faster cutting experience. I think this new Cricut Maker 3 might have a little bit more cutting pressure than the Cricut Maker has along with the speed boost. The Black Friday price and the extra package contents (roll tray, Mini Cricut Heat Press, extra tools and materials) was such a bonus at a great price -- I'd been a fool not to take upgrade finally. And just in time because it appears Cricut is no longer manufacturing this their highest rated of the Maker line. At 82 years old this will probably be my last big Cricut die cutter machine and bundle. But I do hope they come out with something else very tempting! I am keeping my Cricut Explorer Air for now simply because its so easy to use, rarely gives me a moments trouble and because it is the last of the Cricuts to still accept the dozens of cartridges I still own and plan to transfer along with the Explore Air to a granddaughter before or when I pass. She might use Cricut Access but wouldnt need to subscribe if she didnt want to. Besides it's always a good thing to have an extra machine cutting if I'm working on a large project or multiples. The Explore Air always works like a dream, with rarely a glitch - so it's a keeper to stay! I will donate my Cricut Maker to either a school, a church or a possibly a crafter not likely able to afford to buy a Cricut Maker of their own at present due to severe financial restrictions.

I absolutely love my new Cricut machine. It is the first one that I've ever owned. And I am so sad that I did not get it sooner. I cannot wait to create with it.
