I've waited & dreamed for years of owning an electronic cutter, and have researched all of them. I am so thrilled I was able to get the Silhouette at this time when it has gone a full 12" wide. I dove right in and played with welding text and was *amazed* at how wonderfully it cut out. Very, very happy with the Cameo!

I have been thinking that I wanted some sort of die cutting machine for over 2 years now, but kept holding off because I didn't want to have to purchase all of the cartridges. And then to think about taking them with me when I go to retreats was just too much for me! This is the perfect solution! I haven't used it all that much yet, but it was very easy to set up and pretty user friendly. If you know computer software at all you can figure this out. I can't wait to use it more!!!

I am in LOVE with my new Cameo Silhoutte! Simple to use for anything I want to make! I have never die cut anything before or owned any kind of a machine before this Cameo! So simple to use and I can make anything I want. I am using it for my daughter's wedding planning and we are having fun with it.
It is also handy for cutting out my quilting pieces!
I'm in love!
Thank you for the person who invented Cameo!

I've had the Silhouette original for several years and when the Cameo came out, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it! I've had my Cameo for about a month now, and I LOVE it!!! It's quieter, quicker AND I can cut 12 x 12 with it! I think I've used the Cameo on every layout I've done since I bought it!
I also have the Quikutz Epic, the Cuttlebug, and the Quikutz's Revolution. The Cameo is BY FAR the best ever! It is SOOOOO easy to use. Need a new design...just pop over to the online store and you can get anything you want for $.99!! Several times a year they have sales when everything is $.50 per item. You also have the option of getting a download card for a monthly fee and download unlimited files for the one fee.
PLUS...you can cut almost ALL the fonts already on your computer...and DESIGN your own designs...how cool is that!!!
Okay...have you guessed?...I LOVE MY CAMEO!!

I am not really into machines and I have never been really into die cutting either BUT I was sold on the Cameo because it could do so many other things like cutting heat transfer etc. And I am so glad I decided to go for it. This is the BEST large scrapbook purchase I have ever made! I love how easy and user friendly it is. I was up and running in no time at all. I love how many different crafts you can do with it (heat transfer, rhinestones, fabric ink, papercrafts etc!). I love how detailed the cuts can get and how you only need one blade and can adjust that blade so easily! I love the 12x12 capability. I literally have NOTHING NEGATIVE to say about this AWESOME machine. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

I am so glad I purchased the Silhouette Cameo. The cuts and details are so precise. Most of all there are no expensive cartridges to buy.

I was so excited to be able to finally have all my fonts that are downloaded on my computer available-already cut out and ready to go when I needed them. I'm still learning about the product and different options but so far it's been great!

I love, love, love my cameo! It is soooo much better than the cricut expression I shared with my sister. The cuts are so much more precise and the Print 'n' Cut feature is so fabulous. I've had the machine since April 2012 and I'm still learning new things that it can do! I love the sketch pens too! The program is free and easy to learn (quite similar to Sure Cuts a lot or Make the Cut)--but does require the use of a computer. The great part of this is that there are no crazy expensive cartridges to buy. You can make your images (which I've done using the trace function in the program) or buy individual images/files from the silhouette store. Easy Peasy!
Granted I was already familiar with die cutting machines and programs, but I was able to cut within an hour of opening the box. Awesome!
The only sort of negative thing I've found is the mats are more expensive than the cricut ones. But the cricut ones can be cut down to the size of the silhouette ones and they work just fine in the machine. :)
The blade is also expensive, but I have yet to replace mine-it's lasted 8 months of regular use. Better than the cricut. :)
I 150% recommend this machine to anyone and everyone. Best tool I own!

I own the Gazalle, KNK, eCraft, Cricut Cake, Expressions, Imagine and now the Cameo. Yes, I'm a machine junkie. Out of all the machines, this is my absolute favorite. It cuts beautifully, and the PNC (Print 'n Cut) is to die for. The PNC's cut out accurately with no white space on the edges of the cutouts, unless you want it, and leaves no extra color on the negative.
Yes, this is my go to machine for just about all needs. The only thing it does not do is cut heavier chipboard, but cuts cereal box weight with ease. I'm done with purchasing carts, and machines that do not work as promoted, such as the Imagine. I just can't say enough about this wonderful machine. Except, you could spend a couple of thousand dollars on a machine with the abilities of the Cameo. This is one sweet machine. The big plus, you'll be able to use your own designs!
Don't hesitate, click the buy button, and be prepared to be amazed. I'd give it 10 stars if there was an option.

This is my very first cutting machine, and I can assure you it is money well spent ! It captured my attention because I didn't need to buy any expensive cartridges, though I could buy some designs online.
The main quality of the machine is the freedom of creativity it offers : you can design anything you want and the machine will cut it ! You can check my gallery for examples, I made tornados, algae, waves, etc. It's very easy to use, and frankly the quality of the cuts is very good.
I honestly didn't think I would use it so much and so easily, but I do !

Is the Cameo 2 the same unit as the Silhouette Cameo 250? Also I understand there are 2 versions of the software - 1 of those would be the designer software. Does this unit come with the designer software? There is a lot of information on the Internet but I am having problems figuring out which is the old info and which is new. One last question - would you know if they plan on releasing a new machine in the next 6 months or so? I have a closet full of Cricuits because I cant seem to own one more than a couple months before they come out with a new version. I want to love this machine for a long time!! Oh wait - one more question - does anyone out there own a scanncut also? If so, which is your favorite machine? Thanks so much!

The designer studio software is always a separate purchase. The best reason to purchase that in my opinion is to add the ability to import and cut SVG files (there are a number of free cut files available at several sites). I think you also have expanded knife and eraser options as well as a few extras I don't find myself using much. I went a number of years without having the upgraded designer software, but now that I have it I can't imagine going back. Silhouette America puts it on sale once or twice a year, as well as some SVG sites offering it at a discount year round. I highly recommend it. Silhouette also just introduced the new Silhouette Curio to be releasing Fall 2015 which is designed to emboss and cut much thicker materials (among other things), but it won't be a replacement for the Cameo as it is much smaller in size and won't cut 12x12 (its mat will be 8.5" x 6").

The Cameo 2 was just released in October of 2014. As I understand it, the only REAL difference between this one and the previous version is that the new one now has the touch screen, and the new rollers for grabbing/holding materials in place, and the cutter for material that is on a roll (like vinyl). I would highly doubt that they'll be releasing ANOTHER new machine in the next 6 months, since this one has only been since end of October.
I am sorry if this is a repeat, I am just overwhelemed! I am trying to decide between this and the eclips by Sissix....I could have sworn it said you could sketch or print on this on another site - am I wrong? Also does anyone have the Curio as I saw them selling this with the curio on a site. Can anyone give me any feedback on which machine is best for me - I do papercrafting and cardcrafting as of right now. Thanks in advancve!

You can sketch with the Cameo. I've had a Cameo since they first came out > 5 years. I LOVE it! I Scrapbook and make cards and use it for both. You can also create your own designs. Not need to buy cartridges as you can buy individual designs from the Silhouette Store. I have used a friend 's Cricuit....doesn't even compare to the Cameo in my opinion. There are also free cut files everywhere...check out some Silhouette boards on Pinterest. I would also recommend purchasing the Designer Edition program...it's about $49 at the Silhouette website. There is a learning curve with the Cameo...but it is SO worth it!

Good afternoon! Does this machine work well for making stencils or do you recommend something better?

Yes it does. Silhouette even markets a stencil material for under $10 for a 12x24 roll. :) It's available at scrapbook.com here: link
