The difference between this machine and its rivals at Cricut and Silhouette is the built-in 600dpi scanner and and onboard computer, accessed via the LCD touchscreen. The Brother ScanNCut SDX1200 is the part of the excellent ScanNCut series of craft machines from the brand mostly known for its sewing machines.

Overall, the Siser Juliet is an excellent and comparable craft machine Siser is also a well-respected craft brand. It's also whisper quiet (78dB) compared to the latest Cricut machines and features a Marker adapter to turn the Siser into a drawing plotter – that built-in camera really aids precision when drawing. It's a cylindrical build that feels more compact than Cricut Maker 3. The Siser Juliet looks quite stylish too. I like the LCD display which means I can take direct control over the machine's settings, the built-in camera offers precise cutting (handy to perfect print after cut projects), and the Siser Juliet adjustable pinch rollers, which means it's possible to adjust the speed and pressure of the cut and experiment more. But if you are a seasoned pro, there are some nice new features too.

The Siser Juliet Digital Cutting Machine is the newest digital craft cutting machine on the market, and easily the best alternative to Cricut Maker 3 if you're looking for a straight forward blade cutter with some neat design choices.įirstly, the included Leonardo design software comes with many pre-installed designs making this ideal for a newcomer to digital crafting.
