Cricut Maker 3 (Digital Content Bundle)
List Price: $429

The Cricut Maker 3 comes with a digital library that has 30 images to start you off. It is capable of cutting through over 300 kinds of materials, which is perfect for crafting projects. You can attach 13 tools for cutting, writing, scoring, engraving, debossing, and more.
Like all Cricut cutters, you can operate the machine using its own software and apps such as Cricut Design Space. Upon registering, you'll have access to more than 300,000 images and 7,000 ready-to-make projects.
This model is better suited for slightly bigger projects that require harder materials. It is two times faster which saves you time for bigger layouts, and it has ten times more cutting force which is needed for engraving and debossing projects.

If you plan on making smaller cutouts or stickers, then the Cricut Joy Machine might be the more appropriate purchase. It's portable and smaller so you'll have less trouble fitting it into your space. Like the bigger machine, it's capable of making precise and intricate cuts.
The materials you can use it with include cardstock, vinyl decal, iron-on vinyl, and more. You can also use Cricut's Design Space app which works on both mobile and PCs. With Bluetooth connectivity, you don't need wires to send designs to the machine.

Cricut Autopress
List Price: $999
With Deal: $799
You Save: $200
With both the Cricut Maker 3 and the Cricut Joy Machine, you can create one-color designs and cut them out on heat transfer vinyl. Using the automatic heat press, you can attach that design to various fabrics and even leather.
The machine is 15 inches by 12 inches, which allows you to add small to medium-sized layouts. The auto press feature eliminates the need for you to add your own pressure. It comes with a dial so you can adjust the temperature and the time for pressing.
Cricut Hat Press
List Price: $149
With Deal: $99
You Save: $50
While the Autopress can be used for various fabrics, it cannot be applied to curved surfaces, which is what you'll encounter with hats. The hat press allows you to add designs to headwear using press-on patches, heat transfer vinyl, infusible ink, and more.
The product comes with a hat pressing form so your hat will retain its shape during the pressing process. The heating plate is 5 inches by 3 inches and is also ceramic-coated to prevent the materials from sticking to the surface. Heat and time settings can be adjusted through the Cricut Heat app.
