Great machine, note pen change.
A great tool for maker projects and creative ideas. One thing to be aware of: this is a new product, and Cricut has changed the pen mount design. Existing Explore pens from earlier models aren’t compatible with the Explore 5 — it now uses the new Universal pen system.
Aside from that, it’s a fun and capable machine for making all kinds of projects.

Would buy again
I love my cricut! This is the second one I’ve bought and would probably buy more.
The explore 5 is definitely a bit slower to cut but it’s more precise to cutting it.

Its good
Neat little machine, still new to cricut so still working it out. The app isn't that mobile friendly so best to use it on a lappy.

Sizing of letters and end products take a little bit to perfect but a great product all the same
