A Win Purchase for starters
I Purchased this jumping into pressing shirts and I had no idea what I was doing. Back when Covid shut the world down, I bought this trying to figure out how to make my own shirts. Let’s just say, 3 years later, I still have it and it still works properly. Never had issues with it. I work in a professional shop now, so I have bigger machines to use, but we do use this one as a back up incase!

Gets the job done
It's a upgrade because ofThe size much easier to work with because you have more coverageIt is very heavy so I recommend a very sturdy desk or tableIt heats up in about 1 minAnother plus is it does not smell some heat press tend to have a nasty smell when they heat up all the wayYou have to have a strong arm because it is a lil hard to close and openTimer is a plus as it activated as soon as you close it and sets itself every time and that saves time !!

MUST HAVE!!!!!
I LOVE THIS!! I run an Etsy shop so I make A LOT of shirts! It is heavy and large but that’s what I paid for!!! So reviews were bad saying it’s uneven heat but I have not really noticed it. The middle does seem to getting hotter than the corners, but it isn’t enough of a difference to tell when making shirts! I’m so happy I took this risk and bought this! I’ve had it for a couple of weeks now and I have made over 20 shirts and it works perfect every time. Other reviews has also said it takes a lot time to heat up and the manual even says allow 20 - 30 minutes to heat up, but I press my vinyl at 320 - 330 degrees and it takes maybe... MAYBE 15 minutes to heat up. Works perfectly!!!

Best thing ever!
Before I purchased this for my wife she had been using her cricut easy press. it worked fine but took so long and didn't get hot enough to press the material as well as she would have liked. she would use her easy press and then go over it with her heat gun to be sure the material adhered well enough. Now, she is getting her projects done in record time. what use to take her 5-10 minutes to do, she is doing in less than a minute.When the package arrived the box was beat up and all the styrofoam was crushed and broken but the press itself was in great shape. It did not have instructions with it but was really simple to use. If you are looking for a great press this one has done us well, I would buy again.

Great machine easy to use LCD display not so good faulty upon unboxing
Machine works super well and is straightforward to use with good instructions. Would be 5 stars but parts of the LCD number display do not work so tricky to see exact temp it's set to without scrolling through and making sure it's set right. Too heavy and large to bother lugging to ship back for a replacement. if that worked properly 5 stars

Good, easy to use, a little hard to lift handle once it’s closed but not terrible !
I was a little weary based off of the reviews. Some good, some bad. I usually go off of the lower reviews to get a good idea of how the product isBut I’m pleasantly surprised! It works great, is heavy but manageable to move and gets to temp pretty quick. Sometimes depending on the pressure it’s hard to pull up but I found if you place your hand under on the base of the bottom (prob not the safest but it hasn’t hurt me) and pull up in the handle with your other hand it comes up great! I don’t regret this purchase at all lol

Great value and great product!
Ready to use out of the box! I have the 12x12 and it’s easy and ready to use once taken out of the box.I would recommend watching some tutorials on how to heat press properly if you are new at this. The instructions that come with the box do not guide on how to press, but it does explain how to run the machine.Great buy and value for money!

Buyer Beware
I purchased this heat press to make gifts for friends and family November of last year. Since it was right around the holidays time was short and I didn't use it until late January and by that time my option to make a return to Amazon had passed. Anyway, the first couple of times I tried to use it the vinyl would not stick no matter what I did - turn the heat up (nope), turn the heat down (nope) and I ultimately had to use an iron and hope for the best. After doing some research online I decided I needed to order an infrared thermometer to measure the heat accuracy. The heat press typically ran about 15 degrees too hot, which explained why I was not having success. With the thermometer I was able to make adjustments and made a few shirts for a friend, as well as a couple of canvas tote bags. A couple of weeks ago I tried to make another t-shirt and once again the vinyl would not stick and the heat press was running entirely too hot. After several attempts to adjust I finally gave up and once again had to use an iron. This morning I turned on the heat press to try to make another shirt and it began heating for about two minutes and then shut down completely. I tried several times to turn it on with no results. I am very upset, as I have only been able to use this item successfully a handful of times and certainly not enough to warrant what I paid for it. I reached out to Amazon who put me in touch with the seller. The seller apologized for the "inconvenience", but since I was outside their 30 day warranty they are not willing to do anything else. Yes, it was highly "inconvenient" for me to have handed over my money in good faith and have next to nothing to show for it.
