Re: Silhouette versus Cricut

  • Have you seen some of the comparison resources in the FAQ at the top of the board?
    I'd rather be rock climbing or playing volleyball

  • I have both.  Bought the Cricut first because it and all the items for it were easily available in stores if I needed them.  If I were to do it over again I'd go with the SIlhouette.  I would have saved myself $250 doing so because I would have nevre got a Cricut. 

    It really depends on what your needs and wants are.  If you want super simple where you get an image from a crat, pop it in and cut then Cricut.  If you don't mind putting a little more effort then the SIlhouette is awesome.  It uses a computer software program (and you can use 3rd party software).  Downloads are $.99 each and if you have the 3rd party software you can get SVG files for free or collections for much cheaper than you can buy a cartridge for.

  • Headed there now... This is one of the few boards that has a great FAQ section. I honestly over look it, most times when I have a question.

  • I went with the Silhouette over the Cricut because I liked the freedom of using the machine however I wanted. its sorta a Mac v PC kinda thing, but in the end the Sil was a better choice for me
