Cricut Expression, November 19, 2009
By AZJen from Arizona

"Have been wanting to upgrade from my original Cricut to the Expression for some time because of the ability to cut larger images. If you're into scrapbooking or card making this is the machine for you. It will even cut images from fabric for quilting, as well as many other home decor applications. Using the optional deep cut blade and housing you are also able to cut vinyl, foam, chipboard -- in short, most thicker materials.ProvoCraft does a good job of offering support and ideas on their website. There are also many Cricut user groups on the Internet.This machine does not disappoint!"

great machine, November 19, 2009
By LizRK1 from New Jersey

"The cricut expression cutting machine is a fantastic tool--can add so much to notecards, helps with the creation of personalized gifts, etched glass, and many other uses. I am pleased that it was made available by Overstock, and at a great price!As a high school teacher, I have inspirational quotes up on my classroom door, and I change these out weekly. I use designs and special lettering to set them off, then laminate them. This machine will help me update my stock of quotes, create useful items for the classroom, and for friends and family. I love it.Thank you, Overstock!!"

Cricut Expression, July 28, 2009
By Ilovecrafts from Los Angeles, CA

"I have been a cricut user for a few years now. I have always wished that it would take a 12 x 12 cardstock. . I always had to cut the paper in half. I LOVE the expression. Now I can load a full 12 x12 sheet of cardstock and just let it cut away. I think the best feature is the screen that shows you exactly what you are cuttling. Also I wanted to get into etching glass and now with the expression I can. JUST LOVE IT."

"A must have for all serious scrap-bookers out there. It is easy to use, sturdy, and definitely worth it! We used the Cricut during class-time to develop a scrap-book of our trip. 21 high school students used the machine non-stop and it performed beautifully. More cartridges for Bulletin board designs will be purchased at a later time!"

"Was received in excellent shape, in a very timely manner and the price was outstanding. Much cheaper than in a local store. Everything was received in excellent condition without a torn or mashed up box. I could not be happier and I really loved the penny shipping since this item was a little expensive to begin with. Thank you Overstock.com!"

A Must If you Scrap!!!, April 30, 2008
By kpscraps from Chicago, Illinois
Value: 3 out of 5 3 out of 5

Materials Quality: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

"This is a very useful tool for a variety of crafts.
*Scrapbooking
*Card Making
* Home Decor
* Party Decorations
*Class Projects/Classroom Decoration
With the variety of cartridges that are available, you are able to make a nice variety of alphabet fonts and graphics.
The Expression machine is not meant to travel with. (You can get the smaller machine for that one) But is allows you to create very large cuts. (Unlike the standard machine the caps you at 5 1/2 inches)
It is easy to use and I use it more than I thought I would."
