Must have air brush

Great stuff

I have been reading reviews and watching videos about heat presses for months before I decided on this one. First of all, I'm a crafter, not a business. I make things for family and friends and when I charge it's usually for materials only. So that being said, I also want to say in the picture you will see my very first project with htv vinyl AND a heat press. I've never done an iron on/htv vinyl project nor have I used a heat press before now. This heat press was SO easy! Settings were extremely easy and my project on a canvas bag turned out awesome. All you basically have to do is turn it on, set the heat to desired number, set the timer to desired number, put your bag or shirt or whatever on the pad, push the handle down and when it's done it will beep. Release the handle, let the fabric cool for a minute and then peel off the layer of plastic and your transfer is there! I also used the parchment paper that came with the press to place over the bag. I've seen people use this without it in videos, but I chose to use it since it came with the press. Overall this is a great little machine. Doesn't come with a lot of instructions, google will be your friend when it comes to setting temperature and timer depending on fabric and type of vinyl. ALSO there's a flyer in the box with Fancierstudio Facebook page. They have videos that I watched before I attempted to use this heat press, plus they have troubleshooting videos with easy fixes. I'm completely satisfied with this purchase!

compre la maquina con miedo a que no llegara buena , despues de un buen tiempo usandola , la verdad si es muy buena

I was using the Cricut heat presses, but needed something when doing large orders. This machine did the trick! I've used it on blankets, t-shirts, sweatshirts, zip up hoodies, canvas totes and even a few things for sublimation. I use parchment paper to keep things from bleeding through and messing up the heat plate and bottom pad. When using it for sublimation, I use heavy duty cardstock as a barrier, under the parchment paper. The time and heat setting are easy use, to set the pressure you turn a knob and it's easyish to figure out. It has no auto shut off, and needs to be on a plug by itself.It is worth the price. It's quality is good and the website has learning and troubleshooting tips for you to use. I'm glad I added this to my crafting adventure.

I received this press the other day, and out of the box, the handle was not screwed in all the way. It also gives off a really strong burning smell when you turn it on for a couple days now. Which is kinda…expected, but a little scary too. I have pressed about three shirts so far at 350 degrees for 18 seconds, and the HTV seems to be adhering really well, evenly distributing the heat. The one thing I found very difficult to do is trying to position the shirt onto the bottom plate, the design does not give you a lot of room to do so. With the top platen sitting at 350 degrees, you need to be extremely careful when placing the garment and removing the carrier sheet. I have already burned the back of my hand pretty good and I believe it won’t be the last time either. So heat gloves will be my next investment for sure. When you clamp down the handle, you hear a lot of sounds. Creaking in the handle assembly, and it’s a really loud clang. Temp does drop a few degrees I have noticed when the platter is clamped down and pressing. Went from 350 to 340 in 18 seconds. Not sure if that is normal or not. The machine looks to built ok, the mat on the bottom says it was glued into place, but it is already loose and coming up after only three presses. I mean for 200 bucks, not a bad starter press, I don’t know how long it will last, but we will have to see. Would I recommend this, I think so. I only had it a couple days, so we will have to see in the long run how it holds up. Press is pretty heavy, so make sure you put this on a solid and sturdy table or surface. Wood would be better than plastic I am guessing. Something that does not wobble. Control panel is pretty easy to operate and the it heats up pretty quickly. I recommend when you first get this machine, set it up, turn it on, set it to 350, and let it go for like 2 hours. Just so you burn off that chemical smell, you don’t want that in your garments. Make sure you also use the Teflon sheet that comes with it, every single time you press. To protect the platen and also your garment. If you are using a thin HTV material, I pre press the garment for about ten seconds, at 350, and that seems to set it up pretty good, then put your HtV in place, and Teflon on top, press for 18 seconds at 350, pull off the carrier sheet as soon as possible, and in one quick motion. Then for the heck of it, I put the Teflon on the design I just did, and press for ten more seconds. Just to make sure I got in pretty good. Just my experience so far. Good luck with it, but it and see what you think. They have a return policy, so there is no risk at all if you don’t like it. You can always return it.
