Brother SDX85BNDL1 ScanNCut DX Electronic Cutting Machine Bundle

The machine is easy to use but the design studio is in CAVEMAN TIMES. The studio is too limited for a small small business owner, if only they would at least try to compete with silhouette and circuit. you can't even have multiple design tabs open like in the sil and cricut studios. BROTHER PLEASE USE THIS CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM AND IMPROVE YOUR CANVAS WORKSPACE.

A User Manual would be extremely helpful. I already own an older model of Scan n Cut, so I'm not inexperienced. Still, the new model is different and I can not get it to cut what I need. I'm sure the answers to my questions are out there and I will find them when I have the time and patience to search for them. It would just be so much easier if the instructions were easily available.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. This Brother ScanNCut is wonderful! It is easy to set up and use. There are so many different projects you can do with this machine from making scrapbook cutouts to custom stickers, tshirt iron-on and so much more! I love the touchscreen feature and the fact that it has it's own internal memory for saving designs for future use. If you are into craft projects, I think you will love this machine as much as I do!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. It's my first cutting machines, so there was definitely a learning curve to figure out how to use it. I was pleasantly surprised that I did not need to connect the ScanNCut to a device. It also took some patience to get the outline the way I wanted when there wasn't a strong contrast between the background and image. The ScanNCut detects the cut marks on the mat after a while as well. It cuts pretty fast and it's not as noisy as I thought it would be. I'm really enjoying using the Brother ScanNCut cutting machine!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such a neat printer/cutter. The initial set up is pretty easy to do. We had a little trouble at first getting our wireless internet set up, but we eventually got it. We were just looking in the wrong place. It comes with a mat, spatula, and a stylus pen for the display. I will be honest, we had some trouble getting it to cut the pattern. It is super easy to set up what pattern you want. It just takes a few steps. I had to run the mat through the printer and pattern several times before it actually cut. I'm not sure if it was because the blade was new or what. I presumed it would have cut first thing. I put it on different settings and it just wasn't cutting the card stock. After several attempts it finally did cut. I pulled the paper up and used the spatula to lift my pattern off. What is super cool with this Brother is that you can actually scan your own designs and use your computer to print/cut out whatever you like. It will cut vinyl, some fabrics, cardstock, etc. I'm definitely going to get some materials and make some Christmas crafts with this. The possibilities are endless with this cutter. This is a crater's dream come true. I was intimidated at first, but now I can't wait to make designs for tshirts, decals, and everything in between.
