Find Best Price at Amazon"My research seemed to indicate that in terms of functionality, the machines are more or less similar, so it comes down to the size of the press, the attachments you might use, and the clamshell vs. swing-away factor. I had initially wanted a 16x20 inch plate press, but when I drew out a 12x15 inch area, I realized that the vast majority of things I make fit within this area, and that this machine was a good model to purchase because it can handle all of what I do now and also give me some room to grow with the attachments. Cons: --The manual is poorly translated from Chinese, so there are a lot of mistranslations and/or sentences that make little or no sense. We're hoping we can just keep our fingers crossed that we're not missing any crucial info and that the machine will continue to operate without problems."
"I love that it is fully adjustable height for different thickness of shirts, sweatshirts, stuffed animals etc."
"Flat plat could be a little tighter press."
"I love this press."
"I need a manual and the temperature setting guide smhamm11@aol.com."
"I love the compact size without feeling cramped - the swing out design is amazing. I was nervous about this purchase but it is performing well and I've had no lifting of vinyl nor scorching or products."
"Bought this in may and use it regularly but as others reported the bolt holding the handle on broke which we fix but now the whole assembly that holds on the computer part is coming apart."
"Works well but small and very cheap but you get what you pay for."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I have had so much fun with it, I use it commercially and it has produced the most perfect htv applications on shirts, sweatpants, leggings, canvas bags, swimsuits, mouse pads.. You name it! Immediately after pulling it out of it's box I wiped it down with a cloth to remove dust from storage and got it set up on a small sturdy desk. I found that 315 degrees for fifteen seconds is the best standard for all of my applications, it doesn't matter if the vinyl is smooth, flocked, or glitter. Just make sure your garment is as flat and smooth as possible on the bottom mat of the machine and it should turn out great."
"Had it for about 3 years , used it numerous times and still going strong, absolutely no issues."
"I was using a home iron before and was simply not getting good results. This is definitely a lot less effort (with an iron, you have to put a TON of pressure on the vinyl and hold each spot for 10-15 seconds), all you do is clamp it down (low effort) and wait for 10-15 seconds. I have been able to use this to fix the shirts that I made with an iron (even after I washed those iron on shirts), and it worked perfectly- no peeling! This press does come with a heat protective sheet which I would recommend using. I just wheel it back into the closet when I don't need it, and wheel it out when I want to use it. Word of caution: open the windows when you use this, as there is a very pungent chemical smell when you first start using."
"I've had my machine for 2 years and it still works great."
"Please read my entire review as I was disappointmented when I first received my heat press but had a very positive experience getting my concerns addressed with Fancier Studio... when I opened my heat press I was disappointed to find the press covered in a thin layer of dirt/sand."
"I had 50 shirts to bling."
"I was able to get a full refund and had return shipping paid for without a problem, but other people may want to be careful before plugging it in."

"A good starter set for block printing - I had been using leftover screen printing ink, and wondered what the difference was - this proper block printing ink drys a lot slower, allowing you to squeeze just what you need onto your glass for each pull and keeping the brayer from clogging or drying out too quickly."
"Sure, a good starter set."
"I liked the fact it was a cheap set of inks to experiment with.."
"Me and my children had a blast making Christmas gifts with this starting set."
"We used this to do printmaking with foam printing plates in conjunctions with the Melissa and Doug Block printing paper."

"Don’t waste money like I did, get something else to sketch with your cameo."
"Love these to put text on the outsides of cards, or to draw on messages for the insides of cards."
"Other than that, this material worked a great variety of surfaces including whicker, canvas, and shirts."
"Didnt know of i had to shake or heat up in a way that makes the ink be more fluid during printing."
"I wanted to add some bling to my jeans, so being an avid Silhouette user, I thought I would give this a try."
"I was sooooo excited about upgrading to the Designer Edition on my Cameo program. Desperate to get it done, I HAND PLACED all of the stones--which took me hours, and made me a bit crazy. For anyone who hasn't already destroyed tons of the flocking material, make sure you adjust your Silhouette settings."
"I spent $ 26.56 and that was the sale price!"
