Good once you figure it out
At first I was going to send this back because I could not cut it using my Cricut settinggs. I tried foil iron on, and then went into my settings to cut it deeper, still nothing. Finally I used the “Light Cardstock +” setting on the dial of my cricut air 2 and it cut perfectly. I found that weeding the adhesive layer first,and then the other layer worked better for me. The YouTube videos the company directs you to watch on you tube are useless and have no sound. They really need to invest in a quality instructional video if they want to get better reviews for their product. Also, the iron instructions on the package are useless also, it says 145 (or polyester setting) which is not nearly hot enough to affix the transfer to cotton. I used my heat press at 285 Fahrenheit (maybe the 145 is a Centrigrade number which equates to approx 285? Who knows). Anyway, once I used 285 for 35 seconds, it worked great. I did have to press a few areas a little longer as they wouldn’t release from the backing,so next time I might try just going 45 seconds on the first press? Anyway I put it on a cotton dress for my granddaughter, a baseball cap Nd a woman’s cotton T shirt with. O problem after I figured out how to cut it and press it. I gave it 4 stars because of the poor instructions for cutting and pressing.

Very heavy vinyl HTV
This HTV is heavy duty! A bit heavy for t shirts. Hoped it would soften a bit after wash, but no. By trial and error I found the custom "magnet" setting on my Cricut to cut it, as the enclosed instructions did not specify for my machine. It was a little difficult to weed as the material is very stiff. It worked well for St Patrick's shirts.

Not worth it
Though it looks very nice on a garmet, this vinyl was very hard to weed, could not be applied by just removing the adhesive, and did not “wear” very well. After 2 washes, with hang drying, it starts cracking and peeling. Unfortunately I learned this hard way after making 28 shirts for a customer. Gave 2 stars because it does look nice, and would probably be fine for smaller designs.

Ok but not the best
This product was super hard to figure out even with instructions. We ended up having to buy a second package to get everything done correctly. Hard to weed as you are going through two layers and you end up weeding the necessary backing for the vinyl to stick to the shirt. Once on the shirt the vinyl stayed very stiff and was difficult to fold.

Too thick to weed
This vinyl is VERY pretty, however, does not cut well or weed well. I was able to cut it using a deeper cut setting but when it was time to weed it, it was really thick and difficult to weed. I would not purchase again.

It’s complicated
This vinyl is the hardest to use. I had To set my Cricut to cardboard +, even then the purple was so hard to weed. Finally after 30 min of weeding I attempted to iron on, then the gold wouldnt iron on to the shirt. Never again!

Hardest HTV I've ever worked with
This was the most difficult material I've ever worked with. Had to cut on light cardstock+ and was still sitting here picking off vinyl for 10 minutes. Did a sample heat press, and some letters still didn't stick. Will never buy again. I do not recommend.

Bypass
This was a nightmare. The 2 stars are because it’s a pretty color. I had to cut this on felt and it was still a nightmare to deal with. The adhesive is a whole separate sheet —That’s another struggle. Just bypass altogether.
