I bought this for my wife as a birthday present after buying her a Cricket Maker for our anniversary a couple months before. She had been hinting around wanting a cricket hand held press so she could start doing shirts and hoodies for the kids. To be honest she was a little frustrated with me for spending so much on a press so large with so many options. But I over research everything and after explaining to her that this press plus 1 of its accessories sold separately equals the total price of this entire package she was a little better. But still said I won't ever use any of the other accessories. I knew that wouldn't last. As soon as she tried them out and got the hang of it she started making all kinds of stuff. After awhile other people started noticing some of the items she and the kids were wearing and carrying and asked where she got them from. Then it was off to the race's. I had to buy a sublimation printer for higher quality clothing printing and more permanent transfers to hydro flasks, cups,shadow boxes,mirrors and many different custom requests. Now she uses all the accessories. She still keeps it fun for herself by doing the work order by order instead of making a stock pile which would turn it into repetitive work. That also insures she always has a new project to work on and the customer gets a truly unique item. So this definitely can be a fun in home press that is not to much machine for a hobbyist. The only down fall is that this set up can lead to addiction. So husbands BEWARE LoL.Pros.1. Great price2. Well made3. Large press area for large items (sweaters,mirrors, ect.)4. Accessories work well as advertised5. portable6. Accurate temperature display ( she consistently checks with lazer thermometer)7. Alot of funCons.1. Need better instructions. But is still not to hard to figure out by messing with it a bit. Hint ( Use it to press iron clothing during learning process. Helps you get the feel of the pressure settings and nice smooth clothes LoL.)
