Xtra Love
I love my Maker, my Joy and now my JoyXtra! It is perfect to be beside me in my liviing room so I'm near it and my printer. Love the larger paper size more than the Joy for sure. I haven't been able to use my Maker for quite some time now due to it not connecting anymore with my bluetooth on any device so the Xtra is the perfect stand in!

Cricut Joy Xtra
Love my new machine! It’s small and compact but does almost everything my Explore Air 2 does. It’ll be great to take to all day crops.

Lovin’ It!!
Super easy to get started, great instructions. I’ve only had it a little while and I’ve made 6 projects already. I love it so much I’m keeping it on my craft table instead of on my Cricut Cart. The size is perfect because it uses 8.5 x 11 paper or smaller. Super product!!

Not having a good feel.
My Cricut Joy I just received is not supported by my computer so I am hesitant about getting a different machine!

Bricked after 2 years
The hardware is ok, software is absolutely awful. iOS app could connect to bluetooth but not find the device or load any of my information; Windows app would randomly forget my user info. Tried using it today; wouldn't connect to Bluetooth and support says I'm SOL. I thought the terrible app and constant upselling attempts were the worst parts but this thing completely sucks.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. It’s clear how frustrating this has been, and we're truly sorry you’ve run into so many issues with the software and connectivity.

Your feedback about both the iOS and Windows apps is incredibly important, and it’s being shared with the teams who work on improving stability and reliability. We're especially sorry to hear that your recent support interaction left you feeling stuck. If you’re open to it, we’d really like another chance to review your case and see what options might still be available. Please reach out again with your ticket number so we can take a closer look.

It does it all!
This is a compact Cricut Maker 3! I can keep it handy because it is smaller. I love it!! Many of the Cricut products are already copy paper size and work well with the Extra. Extra-special!!

Required software does not work
Was very excited to finally get and use a Cricut for my crafting, and everything was great until I ran the Cricut Design Space app, which is required to use the Cricut, and it only throws generic errors and refuses to run. I've tried to resolve this for several weeks, trying everything I can find on the support site or elsewhere online and none have worked. Despite tons of people running into this issue there is no apparent solution to getting this software working on a Windows 11 PC, making the device useless. If anyone from Cricut sees this, I am an experienced desktop software developer and would love to help get this problem fixed. If I can provide any info, testing, repro steps, or core dumps, please reach out to me. My order # is 182779901 to assist in looking up my order and contact info.

Great Tool
I purchased the original joy and the Cricut Maker, but wanted something that could do more than the Joy but not as big as the maker that could sit on my work desk and the Xtra is just perfect. It can cut and print . Works fantastic and Cricut support has improved greatly .

Love my little Cricut!
I debated getting the Joy Xtra as I already have a Maker but after a bit of research decided to get it as a Christmas gift for myself. I love it! It's easy to use and I don't need to clear a big area to make a few quick cards or projects.

Not a good experience
The device technically functions, but reliability and ease of use were major issues in my experience. Performance is highly dependent on using a higher-end printer, and setup required frequent calibration to achieve usable results. The hardware has no physical controls and relies entirely on Bluetooth and the companion app. The app requests broad permissions and frequently promotes the paid subscription, with many features locked behind it. During regular use, the app was unstable and often froze or stopped mid-process on both a high-end Windows PC and a MacBook Pro. Overall, this product may work for users with very specific equipment and patience for ongoing calibration and software interruptions, but it did not meet expectations for consistency, usability, or overall experience, even when using official Cricut materials. Hindsight I would not purchase again and advise against it.

Nice and versatile but needs different mats
I really like this for projects on the go but am a bit disappointed at not being able to use smaller mats.

cricut joy xtra
This is my first cricuit so I chose the xtra because it cuts and writes. Originally setup using an ipad, viewed the tutorials but a bit tricky following my youtube videos. Installed on laptop and found it so much easier to navigate and follow along. I’m sure that once I get acclimated to using it more I can transition over to using it on my ipad. It is a nice machine for a beginner.

Love the size
I got myself this product for my christmas gift. Wanted a smaller foot print for small jobs. It was super easy to set up- pretty much plug and play. Only used it once so far and it cuts good. will do what I want it to. I think they could have thrown in a mat for it though. I have every cricut up through the original Maker and love everything about them EXCEPT the software. They STILL have not improved the ease of use- YES they add features which are great but I still find the navigation very hard.

Joy xtra
I'm very happy with it. The only problem I'm having is not able to get the mat in correctly.It ends up hitting the machine in the corner and making loud cracking noise. Is there an easier way to load the mats?

Stickers!!!
I bought it to make print then cut stickers and it is great for that. I haven’t tried anything else, but that’s what I bought it for. I am excited to create other things with it though.
