The HTVRont brand new Autopress was sent to me for this review and I am going over the things I like and don't like about this press. The press is not available just yet but they are doing a crowdfunding for this press with incentives for early crowd funders
You can find out more about that here
www.kickstarter.com/projects/...
Once the press is available to the general public I will add a link for that as well

So glad to see people I follow were included in receiving the product for review. You are the 1st I've seen so far. I had already participated in the "Kickstarter" program for this heat press. Hopefully, the reviews they receive now will aid in making changes for the mass production in September. I have a swing-away with attachments but think this press will help "weekend crafters", like myself, in the long run. And, for a small fraction of the price of the new Cricut press, I'm willing to give it a try.

I have a clamshell semi automatic press with a pull out drawer, as well as a Cricut Easy Press and I ordered this one. I can see some limitations but also feel it will be very useful. All you have to do is turn the shirt sideways and load it and no worries about the seams. What I like about it is not having to adjust my pressure if I want to do wood or glass or any item that will fit. Manually adjusting pressure can be a pain and sometimes uneven pressure can be a pain with the Easy Press, not to mention size. The Cricut auto press is only 12X15 and way overpriced at $1000. I'll likely use this quite a bit and since I was one of the first to pledge, the entire press including shipping was barely $200. If I get it and hate it, I'll be happy to admit it.

You mention not being able to get the collar of the shirt off the mat but what I did was lay my shirt on the tray then place my design then I used the bottom of thebtry as leverage on the back corners and drag the shirt straight back so the collar is off the tray. I LOVE this press so far. The automatic press and release is amazing when doing large quantities.

I was really interested in this press when I first saw the ads for it but I'm not a fan of the tiny space between the top and bottom platens. And now that I know it doesn't pull all the way out, that's a hard no for me. I do like the size but I decided to go with the 16x24 so I have the most space possible for larger projects. Thank you very much for the honest review of the press and the vinyl. I always wondered about their vinyl quality. 👏🏼👍🏼💖🤗

Your comments on the drawbacks to this are about the same as mine. However as one who doesn't use a heat press for a business and just as a home crafter I do think it gets the job done. They definitely need to make that drawer pull out further! That was my biggest piece of feedback. I did do I think two fed in the other way which was easier but still not super easy.... because if the extra bunches the wrong way it won't click in place. My next test was infusible in transfers on fabric/neoprene coasters and the auto button was definitely a good feature for that type of process. No button pushing just rotating product in and out...

I ordered it through crowdfunding primarily because it is drawer based and should be able to do thicker items that my clamshell can’t. Seemed to be a great price for drawer based. Not very mobile, but I would bet it is lighter than any other drawer based ones. A swing away also takes up way too much on the side. Looking forward to my Upcoming delivery.

April 2023 - I ordered this heat press and was so excited to get it. The first time I plugged it in the Switch light kept flashing the entire time it was plugged in. I checked the FAQ and two other people said theirs did the same thing. I emailed the company and did not get a response. The first time I used it, it worked great for three items, but then it started to beep and the timer would not count down. We tried to reset it and also unplugged it. Nothing worked. I tried calling the company at the USA phone and a recording answered and said no one could take my call and then disconnected me. I tried emailing them again and still no response so it was returned to Amazon. Fortunately, I was still in the 30 day return period. When you can’t contact a company and receive no response from emails, that’s a problem. I just wanted to let individuals know as I would not want someone to have a problem and not be able to return it. Thanks for all of your videos and all of the information you share.

Excellent review Corinne; you are always very professional with your tutorials. Question: in your own experience, your projects are mostly more than 15 x 15? I have, at the moment, 9 x 13, and honestly, I didn't think it through when I purchased it; now, I want to have a bigger one, and I am thinking of a 16 x 24. I would like to hear your opinion.

I would NEVER compare the cricut with this machine. Unfortunately, when you test the temperature on the cricut, it is not the same on the plate as it displays in the screen. A person with limitations on money can buy 5 HTVRONT with the cost of one cricut. As per the material, I've experience that DTF transfer works AMAZING with this machine, and the sublimation may be just a temperature and time adjustment. I wanted to love the Cricut, but with the cost and the issues I've encountered, I prefer this one

Do you think you’ll ever be showing sublimation on glass but that auto press?

@CorinneBlackstone Жыл бұрын

I would never ever sublimate on glass in a press like this, too much of a chance of it shattering

I cannot get the pressure on mine to work on ANYTHING. I have tried screens, low and high heat, siser vinyl etc. I purchased a cricut pressing pad, I also ordered a heat mat like on the bottom of a regular heat press. STILL doesn't adhere. Anything else I can try?

A solution for the neckline issue is press the shirt the other way maybe.

@CorinneBlackstone Жыл бұрын

then all the fabric at the bottom is pushed behind the drawer which still means I had to get it all back behind the drawer and there is not much room once you push the drawer in.

Maybe you could put the shirt on with the bottom of the shirt into the press so that the neck is at the front. But I am so glad that you’re doing this I am thinking about getting one.🥰

I tried that but it had a bunch of fabric from the bottom of the shirt that you have to shove under the press
