Happy with machine, the bundle was great, there are a lot of options to get you started and really get to know the machine without having to buy anything else.

Huge assortment of items to try

Cricut

I'm so happy with the Cricut Explore 5!  I'm completely blown away by the packaging and how thoughtful the kit of tools and materials were curated.  Everything I needed to start creating immediately was included.  I really liked how it cuts and tried so many materials right away and it was fast with super clean lines.

Blown Away by the Cricut Explore 5!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am absolutely LOVING the new Explore 5!
First thing that grabbed me was the sleek new look and color are beautiful. It truly fits into any aesthetic and looks so clean and modern in my craft space. I also love that it’s more compact and takes up less room on my table. 

The new snap-in pen holder is an awesome new addition! No more loosening and tightening clamps every time you change pens, love that!

The Print Then Cut calibration is nothing less than magical if you ask me. It’s so simple now. I honestly don’t even understand how it works behind the scenes, but my cuts were spot on! No more trying to figure out the lines or numbers. 

And can we talk about the Load & Go feature?! AMAZING. No more pressing load, waiting, then pressing go again. Now one button does both. Such a small change that makes a huge difference.
It cut my intricate cardstock, vinyl, veneer, and more perfectly. And I love that if I want an extra pass, I can simply press the Load/Go button again to run it through another cut cycle. So convenient!

I was also pleasantly surprised to see this machine is less expensive than previous models while still delivering that high Cricut quality. The Essentials bundle I got was great too — it came with a nice variety of materials and tools so I could start creating right away.

Overall, a lovely machine!

Sleek, precise & love the upgrades!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Getting started with this machine was incredibly easy. The Load & Go feature removes a step from the workflow — something I didn’t realize would matter until I used it. My machine sits across the room, and that small change streamlined the process more than I expected. The buttons are intuitive, loading feels smooth, and the machine is stable while running. It is noticeably louder than my Maker 4, which is worth mentioning, but not a dealbreaker in my space.

They’ve intentionally slowed the speed compared to the Maker 4. While the Maker 4 remains the leader in speed and overall versatility, the Explore 5 delivers clean, consistent cuts that feel confidence-building rather than rushed. It covers what most crafters truly need to create amazing projects without feeling limiting.

Compatibility is where this machine really shines. It can use the Deep Point Blade from the Maker series, and while the tool system is slightly different overall, I see that as a long-term improvement. If you’re already deeply invested in Cricut tools, change can feel like an adjustment. But if I put on my “new to Cricut” glasses, this updated blade system is safer and more intuitive from day one.

The standout for me is pen compatibility between the Joy and Explore machines. That’s a big deal. It means you can start with a Joy, build your pen collection, and move into an Explore without feeling like you have to reinvest all over again. That continuity makes the ecosystem feel intentional and accessible.

I was able to make vinyl decals, HTV projects, cards, and spend a lot of time with Print Then Cut right away. The simplified calibration process makes it quick to set up and easy to trust. The included material bundle was also a smart touch — it allowed me to really explore what the machine could do from day one.

The open design caught my attention at first — I did briefly think about dust — but realistically, I rarely closed my other machines unless I was traveling. It hasn’t been an issue.

The Maker 4 is still the powerhouse of the lineup. But the Explore 5 fills a very important space. It makes stepping into a full-format Cricut far more accessible while still delivering the performance most crafters need. Since receiving it, it has quietly become my primary go-to machine.

Explore 5: A Thoughtful Evolution

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been having so much fun getting to know the Cricut Explore 5, and I have to say. the Explore 5 truly impressed me right from the start. 
Setup was quick and easy straight out of the box, and I loved that it came with plenty of materials and tools so I could start creating right away. Just open the box, set up, and create. 
One of my favorite features is the new Load & Go system. You place your material on the mat, load it into the machine, press one button, and it automatically loads and starts cutting. It’s so smooth and easy. 
What stood out most to me is just how easy this machine is to use. The Explore 5 is beginner-friendly while still being powerful enough for advanced crafters.
I absolutely love it!

Amazing!

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Amazing new machine, the Explore 5, easy to use straight out of the box. Set up was quick and easy, with plenty of materials and tools to start making right away.  This new machine has load and go, only one button to push, and loads the material/mat and starts cutting immediately. The new scoring tool works well with all materials I tried. I tested several materials, different weights of cardstock, vinyl, iron-on, infusible ink, felt, acetate, and so on; the Explore 5 cut everything quickly and precisely.

Excellent Machine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Cricut Explore 5 is a sleek, streamlined machine that really shows how far Cricut has come over the past 20 years. When I first opened the box, I was surprised by the redesigned look since it doesn’t resemble earlier models. The open design initially made me wonder how it would hold up in my (dusty!) Arizona craft space, but it’s been completely fine. It’s also more compact than I expected. I was even able to place it on a shelf where my Maker 3 wouldn’t fit, which is a huge win for anyone working with limited space.

The biggest difference in performance is the new “load-and-go” functionality. It takes a few projects to get used to watching the on-screen prompts and loading tools when directed, but once you do, it’s a real time saver. Load your material or mat and it begins cutting right away. The pen system is slightly different as well. You just need to press firmly until you hear the click, and then you’re ready to go. Setup overall is incredibly easy. The machine walks you through the process step by step so you can go from unboxing to creating quickly and confidently.

One of the best features for new users is the Essential Bundle option. Having the most-used tools and materials included makes it so easy to start making right away without guessing what you’ll need. You can truly hit the ground running and complete your first projects without placing extra supply orders. As far as upgrading, I wouldn’t move from a Maker 3 or 4 since this doesn’t have the same Maker-level mechanics, and it may not be a big enough jump from an Explore 3 or 4. However, if you’re coming from an Explore Air 2, Joy, or Joy Xtra, this is absolutely worth it. You get full 12-inch cutting capability with the speed of the newer machines in a compact footprint, making it a fantastic choice for both beginners and experienced crafters looking for a streamlined machine.

Sleek, Redesigned Cricut Cutting Machine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first opened this box, I was a little skeptical. Cricut has released several previous Explore models, so my first thought was, “How is this one different?”

Then I started playing with it.  The more I used it, the more I loved it.    


This machine is fast. The cutting speed, the Print Then Cut scanning, even the way it moves the mat — everything feels quicker and more efficient. Print Then Cut was absolutely flawless for me. The cuts were perfectly aligned and spot on.

One of my favorite improvements is the pen-to-blade calibration. In this model, the blade and pens sit in separate clamps but ride on the same carriage. That design makes a huge difference in precision when matching drawn lines to cut lines — and mine were nearly perfect. This is a major improvement over previous models.

I also love the new “Load and Go” feature. You simply load your mat with material, and after the machine measures the mat length, it begins cutting without any extra prompting. It’s seamless and saves time.

I tested a wide range of materials with this machine — cardstock, stickers, heavy watercolor paper, mat board, insert cards, and more — and everything cut beautifully.

Another big win for me is the scoring tool update. With this version of the Explore, the scoring tool now rides in the same position as the blade. That change makes me incredibly happy because my score lines are now extremely precise. Even better, the scoring pressure feels more appropriate for different materials — lighter materials get a lighter score, and heavier materials get the deeper score they need.

This machine is also more sleek than previous models so it takes up less space in my crafting area, which is always a bonus.

While I wasn’t immediately convinced this machine would be a big upgrade, I’m completely sold now. It’s quickly becoming a go-to machine for me — and I don’t see that changing anytime soon!

I didn't want to love it....but I do!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have added the Cricut Explore 5 to my arsenal of machines! Right out of the box, it is sleek and professional looking in a beautiful taupe color. If you are looking for a great full size starter machine or just looking to add another amazing machine to your craftroom, the Cricut Explore 5 is the one! This machine has all the features of the older versions but is 30% smaller and 5 pounds lighter - and that does not mean smaller cutting ability! The Explore 5 can cut up to a FULL 12 inches wide and up to 12 feet long when using Cricut Smart materials without a mat! I used this machine to create print then cut stickers that were spot on! The print then cut calibration has been revamped and it is incredibly fastand accurate! I think my favorite part of this upgrade is the load and go feature where you load the mat or material, it quickly measures it and goes right into cutting. This machine cuts so fast too! The new scoring tool being loaded in the blade slot allows the machine to add pressure when needed so your score lines are the perfect depth for the cardstock you are using. Better score lines means more precise folds! I received the Essentials bundle with mine which means that I was ready to go create a multitude of meaningful projects right away! No more running back to the craft store for supplies! The Explore 5 is honestly the perfect machine for beginners who want the 12 inch cut capability with a machine that is fast durable and can cut about 100 different materials. I do also love that all the old blades will work in this machine, so the fine point, the deep point, the fabric blade and the foiling tool are all interchangeable. The pens have been revamped as well so that moving forward we will have less confusion regarding which pens to use for which machine! While older pens will not work in this machine, the newer pens will work on the older machines.

Fast, Dependable, Versatile & Beginner Friendly

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow, the Explore 5 is such a great cutting machine. It features load and go, which makes it super fast! The speed that it scans print then cut just blew me away. The new style scoring is amazing and I no longer have to double my score lines. I love that it doesn't have a lid and is sleeker in looks, but it will need a dust cover in my house. I have made numerous projects on it and have tested so many materials, all with flying colors. The material bundle it comes with is pretty generous and I was able to complete quite a few projects with just the included materials. The new 2 Card card mat is just perfect and such a great addition to the machine. The fact that it comes with mats, tools, scoring, pen, and materials is perfect. You can start crafting right out of the box. The updated bluetooth has really helped connection issues and I was able to connect easily each time I selected the machine.

Such a fast cutting machine!

I purchased this with high expectations, but it doesn’t cut all the way through. I contacted support, and after spending nearly 3 hours troubleshooting and feeling like I was being blamed for the issue, they finally agreed to send a replacement cutter. I’m hoping that solves the problem, but I’m not very confident at this point. I have a feeling I’ll end up spending another few hours with support if the replacement doesn’t fix it.
