I can definitely see the benefits of having a wider machine, as it will give you more flexibility to create much larger designs without having to piece-meal them together after the fact. I’ve occasionally tried to create large-scale projects with my Cricut-mostly signage for my farmstand-and I’ve been limited by the 12-inch material width. However, the brand also offers the Silhouette Cameo Plus ($400), which has a max cutting width of 15 inches, and the Silhouette Cameo Pro ($500), with a full 24-inch cutting width. The standard Cameo 4 can cut material up to 12 inches wide, similar to both the Cricut Maker and Explore Air. One of the things I noticed right away when researching the Silhouette Cameo is that there are actually three different machine sizes available. What we like about Silhouette There are three machine sizes available The Cameo is equipped with Bluetooth, so you can send jobs to it wirelessly, and it’s even able to cut materials like vinyl, paper, and cardstock without a cutting mat. To use the Silhouette Cameo 4, you’ll need the Silhouette Studio design software, which is available for both Mac and Windows operating systems. Plus, the machine automatically detects what tool is inserted and adjusts your settings accordingly. In addition to regular blades, the Cameo 4 is compatible with three specialty tools-the Rotary Blade, the 3mm Kraft Blade, and the Punch Tool-and with them, you’re able to cut a wider range of materials, including fabric, leather, felt, acetate, craft foam, burlap, and more. (The brand also offers a more compact model, the Portrait 3, for about $200.) The machine features a dual-motor system that allows it to cut three times faster than previous models, and it has two accessory slots to hold cutting blades and other tools. The Cameo 4 is the latest full-size cutting machine from Silhouette, retailing for around $300. ![]() ![]() The Sillhouette Cameo allows you to cut vinyl for crafting.
