PYD Life Heat Press Machine 9 x 12 Inch 110 V Mint Green Sublimation Printer Press Heat Press Transfer Machine for T Shirts Vinyl Tote Bag Christmas Ornaments Flat Sublimation Blanks Heat Transfer

I’m a bit unsure about this flat heat press. I love how compact it is, and it heats up well so far (although it takes a little longer to reach the desired temperature). My main issue is with adjusting the pressure. While the screws turn easily, when I reduce the pressure enough to open and close the lid with one hand, the top plate becomes wobbly and closes unevenly. At this point, I’m not sure if this is a user error or a flaw in the product itself.

It was small and it was used unfortunately

I've had this unit for a short while. This unit is HEAVY for its size and very well made. I was able to press sublimation to canvas bags and did not have notice any issues as I was just using the middle of the press. However, when I pressed full-size image, outer edges burned a bit so I checked the temperature of the plate. Device being off only about 10 degrees isn't an issue but outer edges get hotter than the middle. If you press for more than a minute, you may notice yellowing on the outside. Another issue I ran into was that it would take abnormally long time to cure DTF sublimation sheets (as well as uneven curing) as I got the unit to cure DTF sublimation to press on cotton. If you use the unit for craft pressing and small stuff, it's fine but if you plan on curing DTF sublimation sheets, you may want to look at larger options.
