  • Great reviews even outside of Amazon
Style: For Apparel
I must have sat and reviewed so many heat presses on Amazon. This one had great reviews but so did many others too. I kept flip-flopping my decision and eventually landed back to the PowerPress after seeing some video reviews. I wish I had not wasted so much time trying to find the perfect economical press because this one is EXCEPTIONAL! This press does an awesome job. Sure, there is some inconsistency in the heat platen (about 10-15 degrees at times) but you are going to find this in a cheap hobbyist type of heat press. I'd worry more about the brand of HTV you decide to use and stick with the pro stuff like Siser or Color Theory. I do some pretty large graphics on my press (see photo) and it does very well so far. The 15x15 area is much better than a smaller unit. My Pros List: The PowerPress heats up very fast (about 5-7 minutes to get to 315 degrees). The adjustable timer and the "done" beep is a big help. Nice rubber on the shirt pallet HAS NO SMELL AT ALL and is securely glued on. Another selling point was the replaceable fuse and holder access if I ever needed to replace a fuse. My Cons List: It is very hard to pull the platen/handle back up after you press an item. I kept my pressure knob the same as the way it came from the manufacturer. I assume it is medium pressure but it is hard to release. I wish it had holes for mounting so it doesn't move all over the place on my table. It is not a swing-away style so you could get burnt easily when positioning your garment on the pallet. However, I opted for this style due to space limitations. That does not necessarily make this a con, just a "Beware" of how hot this is. Overall..... I highly recommend this and don't even second guess what brand of economical heat press to buy. You will be very happy with this unit if you are just starting out and looking for a cheap heat press. I also didn't want to go with a unit with all the extra attachments like a mug and hat press because I feel that one thing should do one thing very well instead of possibly several things so-so. I'd buy this all over again if I was on a budget! ... show more

  • No instructions!!!!!!!
Style: For Apparel
I have had my Heat Press about 3 weeks now and have gotten to use it several times now. The first thing I will tell you about this press is that there are absolutely ZERO, instructions and being as I have NEVER owned a Heat Press in my life I did not know where to begin. I was worried that the press was set up on Celsius not Fahrenheit, I was soo mad when I first plugged it in because all it would do was beeeeeeep at me. No matter how many times I pressed the buttons I couldn't figure out how to work the damn thing. Finally I unplugged it and off to youtube I went to hopefully find someone who had bought the same press as I made a instructional video. Welp, I suppose no one who has bought this particular Heat Press has made a Youtube video yet or maybe I just couldn't find one. Either way I was determined to figure this thing out. Maybe this review will help you when you get your Heat Press and want to start pulling your hair out too. When I unboxed my Heat Press it was closed, Because it was closed I assumed that once I got it into my craft room I was to plug it in and away we'd go. WRONG. Open your heat press. They are not meant to heat up to temp with the shell closed. Also when you open it it will prevent that terrible screaming, To get heat press up to whatever temperature that you need press the "temp" button use your arrows to set a higher or lower temp. Once you have gotten a temp you're happy with then press the "temp" button again to actually save the temp. Your heat press is now going to rise to that temp, once it has been reached its ready to use. To set the time for how long you want your press to be closed, press the "Time" Button set time and press "time" again. *Please keep in mind that different material has different temperatures and times for how long the items should be pressed for* When I unboxed my heat press I thought also that it was broken or that it had some kind of a lock button and I couldn't open it. Well just yank on the handle really good and it will come up, on the top of the press is a nobby sort of deal you can twist that and get it adjusted to where its not so hard to open, because while you want your press to set your htv really well, you also want to be able to open it again if there is actually something in there, and its kinda hard to do when your plate is hot. Also I learned that you should do a preburn. Heat your Heat Press up to about 400 Degrees. I did mine for a half hour, but I read that you can do it for as little as 10 minutes. Doing this will help to eliminate whatever odor is on it and prevent it from sticking to your clothing it will also burn off any chemicals that may have been coated on the hot plate. Overall I do like my press I think that I wanna quit my job so I can just craft all day now lol This press is not light, so I hope for your sake that you have the space for it in an area that it doesn't have to get moved around a bunch. I hope that this helps at least just one person, cause as frustrated as I was, I was about to send it back. Edited 8.12.19 I have had this heat press for a long time now and must say that after I have figured out how to use it I am so happy with this press. One of the problems I did have with this press was I kept burning the top of my hands inside the press. 😬 I finally figured out that I needed to put it up higher. So I found a movable craft table thing and it stands about chest tall do I can see all the way back through the press :) no more burned fingers :) ... show more

  • This press does one job well, very well!
Style: For Apparel
There’s an old saying, KISS - Keep ir Simple, Stupid. This is the most basic of Heat presses, no fancy stuff, no motors, nothing automatic, nothing to pull out or swing away…. It just a solid pice of equipment, built to last. At first I bought one of those 8 in 1 presses, that can heat anything. It looked like a good idea, but in reality, it was cheaply made, and didn’t work well, they would lose heat quickly, and have inconsistent pressure and heat across the platen. This basic machine does one job well. It will press evenly, consistently, and the heat goes nearly right to the edge. And, although I haven’t had it long enough to know yet, it is built like something that will last for many years. ... show more

  • Best we have tried!
Style: For Apparel
We have purchased several different heat press machines in the "under $500" category. This by far has the evenest temperatures across the top plate, tested with a laser. The silicone on the bed has nice rounded corners that shirts do not get stuck on, yes this really is a thing when you are doing high volume! In the last 3 months, this shirt has pressed a successful 2500+ shirts without issue. One problem we had was getting the pressure right as the user only has a knob to turn and no real good way to set "60psi". Our learning curve and solution: #1 Discovering that the handle will "pop" into place, and keep the pressure on the shirt. If you are having to hold it down, you are doing it wrong. Adjust the knob on the top back. #2 Adjust it to the "hardest" point for the operator to press the handle down so that it clicks into place. This is maximum pressure, and is good! #3 When releasing it, be QUICK! It will pop up a lot better for a "quick yank" than grabbing it and trying to lift. The swiftness will help the handle pop up and release the shirt out of the press. What we discovered WE needed to operate at high volumes. (This is OUR setup based on shirts and transfers we use.) #1 The press, adjusted for max pressure. #2 Teflon sheets, only if doing transfer to both sides of the shirt. (use the sheet between the shirt and the silicone bed, so your first print doesn't stick. Don't forget to let the 1st transfer fully cool before doing the 2nd.) #3 Plenty of power, when you get 3 of these on the same 15A circuit, it will blow! lol #4 Sturdy table and room to work. We work with 2x 8ft tables. Table #1 Shirt press(s) with a stack of shirts and transfers for easy access. Table #2 directly behind the operator(s) for cooling, folding and boxing. ... show more

  • Shipping was fast, quality isn't so great...
Style: For Apparel
Shipping was really fast. I purchased this item on 9/7/18 and it was delivered on 9/9/18, a Sunday. I was very pleased to have it delivered so fast to surprise my wife on a weekend where she still had some time to work on some items. My wife is an experience user and has been using heat presses for a little while now. We were borrowing a friends when I finally decided to buy this one. I spent a little extra money on this one as I thought it would be nice to the Teflon coating already on the heat plate so it was one less thing that she had to worry about. The first thing my wife did was read the user manual from top to bottom and asked about the "Extra Fuse" that came with it. In the manual it says something about an extra fuse in the bag. We looked all over and didn't see the extra fuse. Good thing it worked right away. We have only had it for a few days, but she has already done a few shirts.. The temperature has it set for is 305. She started to notice that one of the shirts she did shows a little imprint on the vinyl. This was a shirt she had put an image on the back and another on the front. The imprint was on the front image and it looked identical to the back. She couldn't figure out how it was getting on there as it wasn't even lined up at the same place/area... We ended up looking at the heat press itself and saw that a lot of the shirts designs were "Imprinted" on the Teflon, which was causing it to imprint slightly on some of the other designs. I wasn't able to get an image of it as its a slight imprint, but for someone who is making shirts for other people, she doesn't want any imprints at all on there. With the machine off and cool, been off for a few hours, she tried to wipe it off with just her bare hand and thats when some of the Teflon came off. The description says "Convenient to Clean" which we didn't think that rubbing our hand on there to wipe it off would cause the Teflon to come off so easily. Pictures of the press show the view from a little distance and a closer up of the spot where it came up. Still hard to see where the imprinting was done, but if you can see the close up view you can kind of see some of the printing was happening. Thankfully I bought some Teflon sheets, due to arrive tomorrow, but as of right now I e-mailed the company to see what their response is to this situation. Just very disappointed that this "Convenient" "Attractive Appearance" device i spent a little extra money on is already having so many issues on Day 2 of light use. ... show more

  • Great Press
Style: For Apparel
I'm a first time shirt maker for my llama hiking business in the Smoky Mountains. I researched presses on the market and this came up as one of the best yet the ratings on Amazon don't reflect it. I was not sure on purchasing this press because of the reviews that people have posted on Amazon. I figured for a couple hundred bucks it was worth the gamble. I took it out of the box and it had instructions (read where some presses do not). I purchased some transfers and t-shirts already and started pressing the first day. I have pressed over 200 shirts so far and has worked flawlessly. I only had one mistake and that was because I rushed and the press was not hot enough yet when I pressed on a transfer. I was thinking that a swing arm would be helpful because it moved the hot plate out of the way while you put the shirts in their position...I found that I was pretty good at situating the shirt just right without getting burnt. I would purchase another one if I had to. Hope this was helpful to someone. ... show more
