I got this for my wife as a gift, and she LOVES it!!!! She has her own craft room, and I always get her some sort of crafting machine for a gift because they allow her to enjoy her creative side. This is by far the best one she has. It's way more versatile, and user friendly then the Cricut that she has been using. The software that comes with it is easy to use, and she was up and crafting within a few minutes. The digital store allows you to only buy the images you need at $ a piece, which is so much more cost effective than paying $$ for a cartridge that has a lot of images that will never be used. The software accounts for pretty much every type of paper, and size which is a huge plus, and it even tells you what the blade depth settings should be for each. If your buying this as a gift, I highly recommend getting one of the four different starter kits that they sell. For the non crafty person like myself, this is basically a printer that cuts shapes instead of using ink. The things you can do with it if you are crafty are limitless!!!!
I have been using this machine for a couple of weeks now and I am so happy with it. I'm glad I purchased this instead of the ones where u can only cut from cartridges. I have dipped my toes into drawing and cutting from my own creations. I would hate to have to try to explain this to a computer illiterate person. Downside. Not a lot of help in the quick start guide. No real trouble shooting assistance. I watched some basic YouTube videos to get the idea of the settings that would work best. My blade was acting up at one point and I couldn't figure it out... A video suggested that maybe the little white housing at the tip was loose... Yes. It was slightly unscrewed leading the blade to go wonky at places. I highly recommend the product but know you're best off educating yourself in its operation and tricks from others in the Internet. Vast wealth of ideas and info on YouTube. Second bonus tip: buy a spare blade and mat. If or when these need replacing you are unlikely to want to wait for shipping to use your machine again. I cannot find any silhouette materials in stores in my area (except for vinyl , limited selection).
I bought a Silhouette Cameo for christmas last year! It is a wonderful product and so easy to use! If you are debating on getting a Silhouette or a Cricut.... a Silhouette is the way to go! You can design anything you want.... the options are limitless!
So glad I waited for this amazing deal! A Silhouette Cameo normally sells for $299 (+tax and shipping/handling), but I got it here for $229 (including shipping/handling and tax-free). The Cameo cuts wonderfully! I've used it on paper, transparencies, fabric, and vinyl. Plus the bundle gave me a cover, double-sided adhesive paper, 6-pack of glitter, and an additional $25 download card.
Ordered this for my wife with a 20% off coupon I received. Got it for a great price gift card. She loves it and hasn't had any complaints.
This is my first experience with a die cutting machine and I found it very easy to use. There are a number of great tutorials online by individuals offering great tips for use. I also had to call the customer service line at Silhouette to find out how to retrieve the images I downloaded and they were very helpful and friendly.
Love my Silhouette Cameo! I got a great deal and extras with the bonus gift card. Very happy
I had been wanting one of these and now that I have it I do love everything it can do!!!
Purchased the Cameo about a month ago and I'm really liking it. The mega bundle was the right choice for me with the free download cards. Only wish it came with a better manual for more detailed ways to create, but there are tons of youtube videos to help, even ones by the Silhouette Company.
