Cricut Personal Electronic Cutter (29-0001) The Cricut Personal Electronic Cutter is a portable machine that cuts letters, shapes, and phrases at the touch of a button. Without the need for a computer, the Cricut machine can cut characters from 1" up to 5.5" tall and 11.5" wide from a variety of materials, including vellum, paper, cardstock, and vinyl. The original Cricut machine is a cartridge-based system-it uses small, lightweight cartridges to cut complete font or shape sets. Cartridge content can be customized in up to six different ways, offering thousands of variations on each cartridge. The machine is also easy to use. Simply attach your paper to the cutting mat (it has a slightly tacky surface to hold the material in place), load it into the machine, insert your cartridge, and make your cutting selection, and press cut. Users can even control the size and the style of the cut with the machine's simple controls. The machine will quickly and electronically cut out the desired letter, shape, or phrase in seconds! This portable cutter weighs only 9 pounds and has a handle for convenient transportation. Designer carrying totes designed just for the Cricut machine further help users take the machine with them when they're on the go. The Cricut Personal Electronic Cutter comes bundled with the George and Basic Shapes™ cartridge, one 6" x 12" cutting mat, one power adapter, and user manuals

Customer Reviews

The Cricut is wonderful - a great tool to have. I found lots of uses for this machine outside of my scrapbooking addiction. My husband is a teacher so it is ideal for smart boards looking for in no time at all. It 'a big investment, but compared to other systems die cut is actually a large. Only to have the flexibility to change the font size is worth the price. I agree that cutting the pad seems to last longer than Cricut says he wants - that was one of my concerns when I bought the car. I do not want to be constantly buying carpet replacement - but I'm not like that is great.

I received the Cricut for Mother's Day my husband and child. I had to delete some 'advice, but it worked! I was in a slump lately and have not touched scrapbooking layouts in more than 4 months. This machine has given me what I needed to move and stop making excuses for the same pages boring. My kit came with 2 pads Cricut and the entire tool kit, so I was going into town to all kinds of new projects and actually have fallen in love with scrapbooking all over again! So many possibilities. The cartridges are very expensive in stores unless you have a coupon, but I bought 2 on eBay for the same price in a store. This is definitely a must for every scrapbooker!
