OIIEE Heat Press Machine 8 in 1 Combo Heat Press 15 x 15 Inch Heat Transfer Machine 360-Degree Swing Away Digital Shirt Printing Multifunction Heat Transfer Sublimation for T Shirts Mugs Hat Plate Cap

I got this to use instead of the Cricut manual heat press because I wanted something that would hold the pressure appropriately. I decided to go with this heat press because of the good reviews and it looked like it fit exactly what I needed at a good price point as well as adding accessory options for me to add items to my business (such as hats).I was very impressed with the packaging and how it really protected the press. I also loved the inclusion of the heat protecting sheets and padding. It's very simple to be able to swap the accessories and change the clamping pressure. I also like that it was very easy to set the temperature and the time setting. The other thing that surprised me was that the top portion can swing out of the way so you can easily place and remove the item that you are pressing.I think the only issue that I can think of is that it took a little longer than I expected to get up to the temperature I needed but that may just be because of the size and solidity of the heating elements.Overall, I'm very pleased with this heat press and wouldn't hesitate to purchase it again!

Setup of the machine was extremely easy and the directions to change the heat plates was easy to follow. I have had no issues with using this machine for it's intended purpose. Heats up fairly quick and can adjust the pressure to fit my needs. I also love that the tray can be pulled out, even though the top plate swivels away. It does take a lot of room, so make sure you have the space to support using it!

We shopped around online for months looking for a heat press that was easy to use, but also full of features. This one is more than we coudl have hoped for.I love this Heat Press. It is so easy to use and is a great press for the money. I have done so many shirts with the vinyl with this press and it performs like it is pressing the very first shirt. I would recommend this press to anyone making an occasional project or to those that do several shirts like I do. Also it is a perfect size making T-shirts, sweatshirts, or hoodies. We are going on almost a year now of using this and all my presses have come out looking great. It heats up quickly, and the pressure is easy to adjust. Would recommend to anyone!

Does the job. Press is easy to use- like anything you have to get to know the product and take time to figure out how to use it- I have had no problems. I would recommend being very protective of the mats and using sheets to keep sublimation from transferring to other sublimation products- again when this happened it has ALWAYS been user error. Wish I could buy just the heat mats from the company.

Easy to use: It isn't a very complicated machine. Only 3 settings to adjust (digitally), temperature, Farenheit vs Celsius, and timer. There is also a knob that you manually turn to adjust pressure. All these are easy to use, I only wish there was an easier way to tell what pressure level you are on. I have considered marking the knob but it still wouldn't keep track of how many rotations. But I think this is standard for a lot of similar heat presses. I am a beginner and have had no issues learning how to use this machine.Sturdiness: VERY heavy, very sturdy.The teflon cloth that it came with is great, except that it is slowly unraveling. After only 3 months of gentle use, it has lost about 1/2 inch on each side. It will soon have to be replaced.I used a temperature gun to see how accurate the temperature setting was and it varies. The actual temp is higher than what the machine says, so I know to set it 5-8 degrees lower than what I want. The temp is only somewhat evenly distributed. I think it is probably more even than other machines that have a different coil structure, but the temperature is still definitely higher in the center and cooler around the edges. It hasn't affected any of my vinyl application projects at this point.The machine starts to make a clicking noise when the temperature reaches your requested setting. It is not annoying like other machines that beep.I LOVE the rotating top panel. That and the bottom panel pulls out just a little for easy access. Both of these features make placing a tshirt on the press very easy and I haven't burned myself! One time I did rotate it almost 180 degrees and the machine tipped. It's best to only rotate 90 degrees.I have not used any of the included accessories for hats, mugs, and plates so I can't review those.I think the 15x15 panels are the best option if you do a lot of tshirts. I like that my designs fit well within the panel and gives me enough room to work with any angle.Overall, I am very happy with my choice and I see a lot of projects in my future!
