While Cricut may not be selling it directly any more, it’s still a popular purchase on Amazon and remains a go-to cutter for many crafters.
Jump to Software and Cartridges - That's right: just like the original Cricut Expression electronic cutting machine, the Expression 2 requires that you either.
In our view, the Expression 2 can’t compete with the latest line of Explore machines from Cricut, but it’s definitely got some great selling points regardless. Let’s find out more. Post Contents • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Cricut Expression 2 As the is still such a popular machine, some people are confused about where it places in the Cricut ecosystem. Like the name suggests, the Expression 2 — or the E2, as the diehard fans call it — came after the machine, and has a number of good improvements on that cutter. It comes before the machine (and, of course, the and ) and still relies completely on using images from cartridges. The later Explore machines allow you to upload and create your own images, but unfortunately this technology wasn’t in place for the arrival of the Expression 2.
Cricut Expression 1 vs Cricut Expression 2 One question we’re routinely asked is, who wins in the battle of vs? For us, it’s a no-brainer. The Expression 2 has a huge number of important improvements over the original Expression — although there is a clutch of crafters who much prefer the simplicity of the Expression 1. While both machines cut equally well, the Cricut Expression 2 is much more user-friendly and allows for more creativity. The has a tiny screen and a large keyboard area which you need to use overlays for to explore the entirety of its capabilities.
It also has dials which allow you to adjust image size and blade pressure. The Expression 2, however, has completely done away with that in favor of just one large, full-color LCD touchscreen. The machine comes with a stylus so you can operate it entirely from the LCD screen if you so desire.
It allows you to quickly and easily size, rotate and flip your images, and there’s no need for the annoying keyboard overlays we have to use with the original Cricut Expression machine. Other bonuses in the Expression 2’s design include the ‘mat preview’ function that allows you to check what the design will look like on your material before it’s cut, and automatic pressure and speed settings for the most common materials. Neither machine allows you to upload or create your own designs — you either need to use cartridges or buy digital images from the Cricut Craft Room software design store.
Here’s a table summarizing the main differences between the machines: Menu functions LCD screen with keyboard overlays and dials LCD full-color touchscreen with stylus Mat preview function?

The Cricut Expression 2 can work with a reasonably wide range of materials, including: • Vinyl • Light to heavy cardstock • Fabric • Foam • Vellum • Thin Foils If you’re happy to purchase a, you’ll also be able to cut Cricut magnet and stamping materials, and chipboard. As long as they measure between 0.75 to 23.5 inches.
We couldn’t find any official word on the maximum thickness of materials you can cut, but suffice to say it’s pretty thin (up to 1.5 mm when using a deep cut blade). Cutting Width The reported maximum cutting width of the is 12 inches wide by 24 inches long. Of course, in reality, this translates to 11.5 inches wide by 23.5 inches long. This is the same maximum cutting size as the Explore machines, and is smaller than the newer Silhouette Cameo 3, which can cut up to a huge 10 feet long.
A cutting mat is included in your purchase of the Cricut Expression 2, but it’s just a standard size one measuring 12 by 12 inches. If you fancy using that extra wiggle room, you’ll have to buy a as a separate purchase. Damn you, Cricut, for making us buy so much extra stuff! Software and Cartridges On the subject of being forced to buy extra accessories to use the machine, we come to the major issue of the: the fact that you can only use Cricut images with the machine, which you have to buy. That’s right: just like the original Cricut Expression electronic cutting machine, the Expression 2 requires that you either use cartridges or purchase and download digital images from the image store on the Cricut Craft Room software. The Expression 2 is compatible with all cartridges, including the Cricut Imagine ones, and can be plugged straight into the machine for immediate use. You don’t even need to connect the machine to a computer if you’re using images from a cartridge.
