What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are inconsistent about the machine's dimensions: one entry gives 22.2D x 41.4W x 18.4H centimetres, while another gives 22.23 x 41.4 x 18.42 cm; 3.83 kg. The exact measurements and whether the listed weight applies to the machine or bundle are unconfirmed. Bundle descriptions also vary, so confirm the contents of the selected listing. Smart-material, project-count and material-compatibility claims are manufacturer statements, not independently verified. Cricut Access is a paid subscription after any eligible trial, and the listing says device use requires Bluetooth and high-speed internet. The product is not intended for children 12 years and younger.
