The HTVRONT Auto Heat Press came fully assembled. All I had to do is take it out of the box and plug it in. The removable heat press mat was already placed on the machine. I can take it off to clean if needed, which is always nice. A 16x20 Teflon sheet was included, that was a nice surprise. The press itself is hefty and has nonslip on the bottom. It will not slip and slide easily, which is good, less chance of my kids accidentally pulling it down and getting hurt. The display screen is clear, and the buttons are pretty intuitive. The entire machine looks clean and sleek.
Using the heat press is pretty easy. There are 4 preset settings, makes it easier on newbies like me. Or you can change temperature by 5 degrees, pressure in kg or lbs, and time by every 5 seconds. I like that you can change the settings in such small increments, making this much more customizable. My previous press had bigger increments. The tray/press mat pulls out smoothly, but make sure you push it all the way back until you hear/feel a small click. If not, the machine will not press and just beep annoyingly. That took me a bit to figure out, beeping is not mentioned in the manual. I’m impressed with how fast the press heats up, less than 3 minutes to get to 300 degrees. I’m still on the fence if I like the automatic mode. When the pull out tray clicks into place, it automatically presses. This could make it faster for the pros, but I turned it off because I may need a little more time to adjust things.
I’m happy and excited about this purchase. I made shirts for my unit and they’re requesting more, this will make it faster and easier. They keep telling me I should start a business, this might be my first step towards that.
