Silhouette Cameo 5 Bundle - Professional Vinyl Cutter Machine, 24 Adhesive Vinyl Rolls & AutoBlade - Includes Roll Feeder, Designer Edition Software & 50 Free Designs (White)

What can I say about this.. For starters, this is the first machine of it's kind that I have ever personally owned. I read all the reviews, watched several YouTube vids on several different machines of this type. Gotta say, I am not displeased with making this choice. This Cameo 4 is awesome, all the things it can do! Pretty darn impressive. So far I have cut so much stuff from Decals I printed with the Print and Cut feature to simple plotted designs and lettering. This thing is so simple to use, but easy for newbie mistakes if you try to go to fast. Important to make sure you have the page sizes and materials properly set! Other than that it's pretty much plug and play. This Bundle comes with so much stuff you can seriously dive right in after set-up which only took a few moments! I highly suggest watching the training videos on silhouette's site if you require more inspiration before purchasing this.. it's crazy how much stuff you can actually do with it! I'm only adding in 3 pictures, but I have done so much with this already. This is a must have for any home crafter!

I bought this while ago (about 2yrs) and it has come in so handy for random things. All of my gifts are unique now and customized. I love my cameo. It’s works really well and the only issue I’ve had was very easy to fix. It makes a little noise when it cuts but to me that just lets me know it’s doing it’s thing. My jobs are usually small so it a quick cut too.

Dumped circut maker when they announced they were going to run a subscription to use their machine. Even if they didnt end up doing it i left because their frame of mind to want to was a deal breaker. I switched to silhouette. Unsure which to get the cameo 4 looked right for what my business has been using. Found this big pack bundle went with it. The design space is much different and hard to learn at first but i love it way more then the circut. To me it offers more The only horrible thing is the sound. Its loud as heck. Sounds like its dieing. I had to look up videos of people using it to be sure i didnt get a bad one and they all sound like mine and reviews ive found say its super noisy. So keep that in mind. But me, i can deal with the sound. This machine is awesome. Even offers a roll holder feeder for your paper/vynl rolls and it can cut without a mat. Oh and it has no minimum cutting length. Only restricted by the width. So if you want to cut 100 feet of vynl at once you can and without a mat. Google search all questions on it like i did

It has never worked correctly no mater what I do it just won’t cut correctly new mat’s new needles new vinyl new new new and nothing works it just won’t cut the vinyl even on the hardest setting and it still won’t cut we have wasted hundreds of dollars on vinyl and needles Just very unhappy with this machine

I had the original Cameo and loved it but it stopped working. I've had it for several years so I can't complain. The Cameo 4 is amazing! I absolutely love all the new features. I have not tried cutting balsa wood yet, but I have used the new rotary blade and it cut perfectly! There was a slight learning curve going from the original to the 4 but not so much that it took me a long time to learn. Recieved this as a Christmas gift from my husband and really was the perfect gift for me. If this is your first time using a Cameo I highly recommend going to Silhouette School website. She has tutorials that are step by step and make it easy to learn. That is how I learned to use my first Cameo and still is how I learn to do new things.

This is a pretty good bundle for the price. If you were to buy all these items separately, it would cost you more. The description needs to be updated though. The vinyl included is Oracal 641 (matte) and Oracal 651 (glossy). See my uploaded photos (matte on left, glossy on right). Also, the HTV sheets are not the same color as in the photo, but this is a starter bundle, so it's not really a big deal to me, just something to note. I did not receive the Silhouette brand scraper tool, which was supposed to be included. I did receive the hook tool though (not pictured). As for the other items in the bundle, the included guides are very helpful in getting started with using your machine. I created a practice cut using cardstock and it turned out great. I used the material settings in Silhouette Studio to get an accurate cut. The blade number and force are automatically set for the material you are using. Helpful tips: if you want to upgrade the software to the designer edition, purchase it from the Swing Design website, as they offer a discount on the upgrade (a sheet of paper explaining this is included in the bundle). Also, when you are inserting the auto blade, press down on it slightly and then push the lock to lock it in place. And one final thing to note, be sure to read all the documents included. There *are* manuals for the machine and the software. You receive the PDF files when you setup your machine via the web address on the included card. Hope this helps! I will update this review if I figure out anything else that might be helpful. So far, I am really happy with this bundle. Update 8/5/22: I made my very first cut with the included HTV, and it weeded so easily! I used the "Heat transfer - smooth" setting, but changed the force to 15, and it cut perfectly! You should always perform a test cut before cutting your actual project. The default settings did *not* work in this case, so be careful of that.

Bought this for my wife who wants to get into crafting. Chose it over the Cricut due to the preferred features of the Silhouette, but the more robust software was a huge tipping point. No regrets, would definitely get the Silhouette again! I'd heard that the software can be hard to use, but my wife has had no trouble with it at all. There's a lot to learn, but she had something printed within only a few minutes, and with a little blog reading and looking around for tips and tricks she's been able to iron out little details and fine tune what she needs to to get better.

I finally broke down and got the Silhouette Cameo 4. I do have a previous Cameo, that was probably the original... being about 8 years old. The Cameo 4 is just as intuitive as the previous one. Modifications and updates like the sliding door (vs swinging door) make it easier to use and store. This bundle deal came with so many perks! The $25 credit for designs, free month for Silhouette U, free month Silhouette subscription, and vinyl, pens and tools galore! This deal even beat the deal on Costco! I can't say enough how much came with this bundle! Great price.

Great bundle. Everything was included that was on description. Only thing is it didn’t come with Australian plug so had to get separately. Would be good to have that option in purchase process.
