THANMAO40 Pcs Standard Replacement Blades Compatible with Explore Air 2/Air 3/Explore 4/Maker/Maker 3/Maker 4 Cutting Machines (Red 45 Degree Standard Fine Point Blades)

I was very nervous trying out non-Cricut branded items but who can afford to forever support Cricut alone? I did my due diligence in researching around but the price compared was too good to not try. I can't tell the difference between this and the blade that came with my machine. It installed without a hitch and cut beautifully! Now I can keep a separate blade for paper crafts and vinyl. I feel like it is a lifetime supply but I imagine I will be back when I need deep-cut blades. I'm grateful they offer different types of blades. I didn't want the pack with three types as I didn't know when the medium was needed. I may return again for that one when I have more experience and find the need.

Work very well.

I had purchased other non cricut brand blades and was disappointed that they couldn’t be adjusted. So even on washi setting as I’d use for stickers, they gouge they heck out of my mat! Not wanting to pay high dollar for cricut thought I’d try again. I came across these and thought I’d press my luck! Well, they are wonderful! They cut PERFECTLY and do kiss cuts great. I’ve cut about 10 sheets of stickers with the same blade with crispness of line and zero snagging! I don’t know how long a blade lasts but so far so good. It’s well worth the price for sure! I WILL DEFINITELY buy these again in the future!

Given the reviews I was hopeful that these blades would work as good as the Cricut brand. They fit my Cricut machine just fine and are just as easy to use. I cut a few HTV designs and they seemed to work OK, but...... When I tried to cut HTV that had a smaller, more intricate design or narrower cut area, the blades did not effectively cut the vinyl. I wasted too much time and vinyl trying to figure out the problem (tried to fix/redesigned the image and recut). Then I changed it out for a Cricut blade and the design cut just fine! Bottom line, if you are only cutting designs that don't have fine lines or more intricate details these blade should work for you, but use a better blade for other cutting.

Great product and price. Worked perfectly

I like to make sure that I get clean cuts with a sharp blade. I was very pleased to find these replacement blades at a reasonable price. I am currently on blade number two, and happy to report that they perform as expected. I would purchase these again in the future.

These blades do not last as long as the popular name brand blades. But you get 40 of them for half the price of one cricket blade So it is a decent value. It might be a different story if I cut intricate paper crafts but I mostly do vinyl so they work fine for me.

Great value . They cut great

Just as good as the original.I waited too long to change the original blade, trying to extend its life with the tinfoil sharpening hack but I was noticing my vinyl wasn't cutting as cleanly as it should have been so it was time to bite the bullet.This will sound very "infomercially" but for less than the price of 1 cricut brand blade I received 40 off brand. My hopes were not set too high but am happy to report that I was quite happily surprised at the results using this blade. Highly recommend.

I used these blades when I started having cutting problems in my Cricut Maker 3. I got a replacement blade from Michael's for $20 and this was even the premium blade!!! They dull very quick when doing any paper crafting (which was mainly what I was doing). I used these blades as the next replacement and I will not buy another cricut brand blade. These have worked great, have been sharp, have fit the housing, and corrected the issue I was having as a result of a dull blade. Overall I have learned you have to change blades a lot more frequently than I realized. So for this reason, this product gets my full endorsement. What a good value.

For Cricut Create

Je trouve que ces lames vont aussi bien que celle qui venait avec ma machine cricut et beaucoup moins dispendieuse.

These blades cut right through my vinyl and backing.. chewed up any small words I cut. Ended up ordering the original cricut brand blade replacements as these were just making me waste money on vinyl
