The main difference between the Cricut Maker 3 and the Brother ScanNCut DX lies in their functions and the way they process materials. Here are some of the key differences:
- Functions: The Cricut Maker 3 offers functions such as engraving and embossing, while the Brother ScanNCut DX specialises mainly in cutting.
- Material processing: The Cricut Maker 3 can process a variety of materials, including thicker materials, while the Brother ScanNCut DX cuts materials up to 0.1 inch (3 mm) thick.
- Scanner function: The Brother ScanNCut DX has an integrated scanner function that allows designs to be created directly from the machine, while the Cricut Maker 3 relies on external software.
- User interface: The Brother ScanNCut DX has a 5-inch LCD touchscreen interface for easy operation, while the Cricut Maker 3 is controlled via a mobile app or computer.
I’ve been using the maker 4 for a couple of weeks now and don’t have this issue, it works very precisely. Perhaps what you are experiencing could be covered by warranty?

The Cricut Maker 3 Bundle, Manufacturer Part No. 2001127, usually comes equipped with the Premium Fine-Point Blade (Manufacturer Part No. 2004225). This blade is suitable for precise cuts in light to medium-weight materials such as cardboard, vinyl and faux leather.
The blade depth cannot be adjusted, there are two different blade tools with fixed cutting depths.
Control is exclusively from the in-house proprietary software called "Design Space", other software cannot be used. However, the designs to be cut can be created with any software and the finished vector graphics can be imported into design space.
The Cricut is a closed ecosystem. If you are looking for flexibility, you should switch to other plotters.
I consider an accuracy of 0.1mm to be hardly reproducible, this is a hobby device
I also have the same problem. It’s annoying. And I’m pretty sure it’s not supposed to be like that. Does it happen both with mats and without. Did you check if the mat is mooving sideways when cutting ?
The fine-cut blade is included. I would definitely order the tool set for this. Materials such as vinyl, cardboard Infusible ink
You will also need the cutting mats and 1 or more Cricut pens/pens for specific projects
Additional blades so that you can create any projects.
For example, the folding wheel blade, an additional fine-cut blade for cardboard if you want to cut with the existing vinyl.
If it is not listed separately on sale, it is probably just the plotter. "Cutting plotters and printing machines" is only the category in which the plotter is offered.
You raise a topic that I spent many hours researching for myself at the time. The Cricut generally seems to have a higher quality finish, higher quality tools and is quieter in operation. These are the core issues and much else is personal preference.
Yes, this is possible, but only with the appropriate cricut film, such as this one:
Cricut Vinyl Film Smart (33 x 366 cm, 1 x)
They are always called "Smart" I think...
The heat press is not included, this is simply a cutting plotter. You will need a transfer ribbon to cut and press on and a heat press. An iron will also do in a pinch.
The Maker 3 can (only) "cut" materials up to 2.4 mm thick with the knife blade. BUT: The control software expects a material definition incl. material thickness before cutting. Soft wood, hardboard, forex plastic, craft cardboard work, but here too, the software calculates both the cutting pressure and the number of repetitions (up to over 20) itself when using the knife blade. Plywood, for example, does not work because of the layers of glue that deflect the knife and may even cause it to break at high pressure. Corrugated cardboard also contains glue, so rather: No, no corrugated cardboard!

It is a little difficult to give a general answer here. Because it depends on the material you want to cut and the blade that goes with it. If you use Smart Vinyl and the blade supplied (Fine Point), you can make extremely detailed cuts (no restriction). So detailed that you can hardly weed them. So for airbrush stencils it should not be a problem.
