HORGELU Upgraded 5 in 1 Heat Press Machine 12 x 15 Inch Heat Transfer Machine 360-Degree Swing Away Multifunction Digital Sublimation Combo Heat Press for T Shirt Mug Hat Plate Cap for Commercial Home

Great money maker. Would buy again

Worth of the money and straightforward to use! This is my second heat press machine. My last one is a 12x10 inch press and is still working fine. Need to upgrade to a larger size so I bought this one after some research. This heat press machine comes with a different control box that has a lot of advanced features. You can program three modes into the control box with specific set temperature and time you want. Instead of wasting time changing set temperature and time for different applications, you can quickly switch between the three different modes by pressing the mode button. Another feature that I really like is that the control can record the times of heat transferring, which would be very helpful in a busy work. I was hesitant to buy this machine when see the review about the scratches on this machine, but finally pulled the trigger. Mine is working fine and totally brand new. I noticed that there is a protective film on the mug attachment, and seems the scratches mentioned in the other review is on the film not really the attachment. I don’t think that will be an issue, since the film needs to be removed anyway, as suggested on the manual.By the way, if anyone gets confused about how to use the machine, you can directly contact the seller. The seller support Catherine is really nice and helpful. During the first time of using this machine, every time after pressing down the heating plate, I found that the temperature would drop. I was concerned and asked Catherine for help. She is professional and helped me out with the issue. Turns out, the cold T shirt would always take away some heat causing an initial temperature drop, but the control will bring the heat up once it detects the temperature drop in a few seconds. I tested it and it was indeed the case. She also suggested to pre-heat the t shirt for a few seconds before the real transfer, to remove the wrinkles and also minimize the initial temperature drop during the transferring.So far, this machine works well, highly recommended!!!

Was made very well, the timer beeped a bit but not too loud.

Great heat press for beginners! I've had mine for over 6 months and it works great. All of the attachments are fairly easy to swap out. I haven't been able to figure out the hat press but that may be user error. Mine also hangs a little lower on one side so sometimes I have to press it down to get an even heat. Otherwise the plate seems to heat up evenly. I have used it for many projects; cricut, sublimation, and DTF and it has worked great for them all.

UPDATE 3/2023 - The company shipped me a new machine for free for a 5-star rating. The was not cracked but there were issues:1. The bottom plate was not screwed into Place (I fixed this myself)2. The black on the sides are whitish in some areas. (Could live with it - in pictures)3. The handle on the left side of one part was not screwed in (or it was missing the part that attaches it to the top. (see picture)4. The screws on top are hot after it heats up so you will/could burn yourself. – Safety / Fire hazard (Can't live with as someone could get burnt or if something was to be laid on top before it cool could catch fire).The two pros are:1. The bottom plate moves out to do t-shirts (once I screwed it in place.2. It is lighter than my old press.I understand the company trying to make this right by sending me a new machine (I never asked for it, they offered), but the handle was not attached so it was still broken in my opinion. The first two I never tried out but I would have returned this for two main reasons1. The handle being broken2. Safety/Fire hazard of the screw on the top plate.I would not recommend this machine, I have asked that they send me a return label so they can have their machine back.Original post after the first 2 machines -I ordered the first press and the front corner was broken, returned the first one and asked for a replacement. The second one showed up today and it was the same issue. The top of the machine is made of plastic, work on the design so your customers don't receive broken machines. Would NOT recommend it, it's not worth the hassle of returning the machine multiple times.

I got this heat press after giving up on my cricut heat press since it kept overheating. I decided on this one because of the price and size and display. The item came and was packaged nicely. The instructions to use werent the best so I figured out how to use the item on my own. The display shows the temparature, time, mode, and a counter for when you're doing a lot of items and need to keep count. The modes are so you can set a time and temparature for specific projects. When I first ued the item, I couldnt get it to stop beeping. It would beep continuously until I figured it out. You press set and set the temparature first and then the time. Once the press heats up to the desired temparature, i thought it would beep but instead mine just makes a clicking noise. When I press the clamp down and press start, the timer counts down and beeps when the time is up. Then you press reset so it stops beeping and goes back to the set time and temp. I gave it 4 stars because the clamp has been kind of difficult to work with. When I first got it, I had it on a table and it was easy to open and close. Then i tightened it for a project and even with loosening it, its hard to open. I have to put an oven mitt on the top and pull the handle up; I cant do it one handed. I also like that the bottom pan pulls out and it came with a teflon sheet. Overall, i would recommend this item.

This is a really great bundle! I still use it a year later and it works amazing!
