Our take on the Maker 3 Smart Craft Machine – Champagne Finish Edition

The Cricut Maker 3 is a desktop cutting machine for crafters who want one tool for many materials. It cuts 300+ materials, from paper and vinyl to fabric, leather and matboard up to 2.4 mm thick, and works with 13 tool types for cutting, scoring, engraving, debossing and foiling. It cuts up to twice as fast as the original Maker and has ten times the cutting force of the Explore family, so it handles thick and dense stock that lighter machines cannot. Owners like the range of projects it opens up, but many find the software subscription and the cost of blades and mats add up, and some say the machine is loud and takes up real desk space.

Questions and answers

Is the Maker 3 worth it over the Explore 3?
Yes if you cut fabric, leather or thick materials. The Maker 3 has far more cutting force and the Rotary and Knife blades, which the Explore 3 lacks. For vinyl and paper only, the Explore 3 is simpler and lighter.
Does it cut fabric without a backing?
Yes. The Rotary Blade cuts fabric directly, so you can cut pattern pieces without bonding fabric to a mat first.
What is in the box?
The machine, Rotary Blade with drive housing, Premium Fine-Point Blade with housing, a fine-point pen, a FabricGrip mat and a LightGrip mat, both 12 x 12 in.
Do I need a subscription to use it?
No. You can design and cut your own files for free. A Cricut Access subscription adds the image and font library and some design features.
How thick a material can it cut?
With the Knife Blade it cuts materials up to 2.4 mm thick, such as matboard, balsa and thick leather. Thicker stock needs multiple passes.
