It's better (if you get the everything bundle), the Costco deal included the foil transfer kit and much less sample material with this deal, you could add the foil transfer kit and have a much better bundle (material, cutting mats, tools, etc) for almost the same price. The only advantage to the Costco kit is the warranty.
From the reviews I've read (business practices aside- as cricut realized it would tank with a subscription requirement) the silhouette is only comparable to the maker as a vinyl cutter... and if that's all you want, get an air explorer 2 for much less money. The maker takes the cake with the different media it can handle.
Thinking of upgrading my mom's machine for xmas, she has an older explore model (it's not an air), is this worth it? Does this connect wirelessly/have other benefits vs the older models? She's mainly cutting htv for shirts, but might do some other projects if this has additonal capabilities-
From everything I read, the Cameo 4 does everything just as well as the Maker handles, except embossing (the Cameo is unable to do this)
.
The Cameo 4 actually has a stronger force on its blade/pen which "should" allow it to cut into thicker fabric.
Also the software from the Maker is cloud based and you HAVE to go through the company software/cloud to make it work... Hence the whole fiasco that happened months ago as the company can limit/change what you can do
The Cameo is a straight connection, so you "own" the system. I believe it also allows you to use 3rd party software
The Maker software is easier/more streamlined, while the Cameo is more complicated to learn, however has far more customizations you can accomplish once you learn them
Also the Cameo 4 allows you to go matless and create far wider projects. It looks like the Maker 3 is Cricut's answer to this
Best post to date on the pros (Cameo) and cons (Cricut). Accurately details the issues that the Cricut platform has. Forces you to go through their system where the Cameo device is 100% owned by the purchaser.

This or Silhouette Cameo 3 or 4? My sig other wants one but I've been researching bad business practices and poor auto blades from each brand.
If you want to 100% own the device, the answer is easy, get either Silhouette. If you get this Cricut, sooner or later you will not be able to utilize many of its features as Cricut is moving to cloud based application usage and fees. Or if their cloud solution doesn't support your device in the future, then you are out of luck and need to buy their latest model. How do I know? It happened to me, two devices are totally useless due to the above issue.
After reading the comments on customer service, I am sticking with the Costco bundle even though it has less stuff included. Thank you guys for posting feedback because I was going to buy the everything bundle and return the Costco deal and y'all have scared me away in case something goes wrong - appreciate it!!!
Ha - I didn't see your post before posting my rant. Yup - I wanted to give the benefit of doubt at this Company since I came in post-failed upcharge on their services model. Figured I'd give their products a try. My items have been sitting for a couple of days with no movement, no tracking, nothing so I figured a modification or cancellation shouldn't be a big deal. Guess not.
Yah! and the best part is my order is not even shipped. It still shows processing... So they are going to ship me an item in the next few days that I don't need, which I cannot cancel, and I have to ship them back on my own dime. So silly. Amazon has spoiled me with prime shipping.
This coupon code does not work anymore. When trying it, it says "Failed to apply coupon. This coupon code excludes Machines, Cricut Access & Digital Images This coupon code requires a $50 minimum order subtotal".

Yeah not working for me either. Just tried. Minimum $50 order and can not use it on machines
Was excited to see the package delivered today but the machine was not deliver only the bundles materials. I have not receive any other tracking for the machine.
