I have been reading a lot of mixed reviews about this and have been wondering if getting one is a good idea…thoughts?
There are pros and cons.
Pro:
- They’re more portable than standard heat presses
- They don’t take up as much room (either to use or to store) as a standard heat press
- They’re cheaper than many standard heat presses
- They don’t require any special power connections
- They can be used in conjunction with, or instead of, a dry traditional iron in a number of applications (especially the EasyPress Mini)
Con:
- They rely, at least to some degree, on the pressure you put on them
- For sublimation, you have to be careful you don’t move the heat element while sublimating, and you set it down and lfit it up straight to prevent smudging
- They may not get as hot, or apply as much pressure, as traditional heat presses.
FWIW, I have both the original EasyPress (which tops out at 365F) and the EasyPress MiThey fit my needs, at least for now.
