Customer Reviews for Leather Cutting Machine Manual Die Cutter 280x140mm Leather Embossing Machine

A lot better than a $1300.00 clicker from one of the big lether guys . Press works very good have had no issues with the unit built like a tank and very heavy duty. You can take off the top piece to make it easier to handle by just taking off the 2 nuts and lifting off the top presser pale spring and handle assy. Thanks for a great product at a great price

Takes a while to set up but look at videos

Love it work just as good as the high dollar one. Thank you for keeping prices reasonable for everyone...........................................

For the cost it’s a good solid press, when it arrives, be sure to have an extra set of hands, because it does weigh 118lbs and the one I purchased only had two of the rubber feet on the bottom, should have came with four, but I put wooden blocks under it and it seems to work fine.

When this arrived it was much heavier than anticipated. We tried to adjust the platen to be level and had to raise the platen and tighten the allen screw on the bottom where the threads run through. Once that was done we were able to adjust the height of the platen and it works beautifully. Lowering the handle and pressing with the clicker dies is so ease and I do not have to exert a lot of pressure. It really does make the noise that is almost a click. Wish it came with assembly instructions however, we were able to figure it out rather quickly. I would buy this machine again if I needed one. This machine will be here from now on.Thank you for a great product.

Minimalistic features, looks so solid will last for years, is quite big and heavy but works perfectly as expected, very good value for money, thanks vevor for the super quick postage 3 days 10 out of 10. 5 stars all-round

I bought this press to punch out heart shapes in 1/4" thick foam core to make valentine cards. I first tried using a rubber mallet with a leather punch but I wasn't able to consistently strike it with the perfect amount of pressure. If I didn't hit it hard enough, the die wouldn't cut all the way through the foam core. If I hit it too hard, I was dulling the die against the backing surface. This press was very easy to adjust to just the depth needed to cut through the foam core and not dig into the backing material. The backing material under the piece being cut was just a thin plastic cutting mat from Ikea, the kind you might use to cut vegetables on. I adjusted the press to just barely make contact with the mat, and that made it cut through the foam core perfectly. You can see how easy it is to use in this video https://youtube.com/shorts/5WnyvAEjQkg?feature=share The only concerns I had were that it's very heavy and came loosely packed in a carboard box with some haphazard packing material in the box that wasn't really giving it any protection. It was rattling around in the box and one of the large adjustment nuts had come off during shipping so that the threads on one rod were rubbing against the mechanism and were worn down a little. However when I replaced the nut, it still fit well enough to not be a problem. It came with no instructions at all, but it was easy enough for me to figure out how to adjust it and use it. I like this press a lot and would not hesitate to recommend it. I saw it available on Amazon for a higher price, so even though it took a couple of days longer to get it directly from Vevor, the savings were worth it.

This Press works great, especially for thin leather. This is a great option for anyone doing leatherwork who cant afford the $4,000 Weaver press. It is simple and easy to maintain. My only complaints are that the main plte can come loose and getting your hand in to tighten the alan screws can be a challenge. Also the wrech they set was not the right size and would strip the bolts. I just used one of my own. But honestly, this thing is perfectly simple and does exactly what it says it does.

Update: See video. All better!!You can see my video for my full review. In short: This is an incredibly heavy, incredibly durable machine. It’s going to be a fantastic press: Once it works. :-(Out of the box, there was a small metal tab missing from the crankshaft that allows the bearing to turn and press the plate down. But since that bearing is not there, the entire plate comes down lopsided and at an angle. You can see it missing in my video.No instructions, which is fine. It’s simple enough to figure out how to assemble it. The screws are on there tight but you can loosen them with some elbow grease. It comes with a wrench that works for the screws. It also comes with a white press mat so you don’t damage your dies.Planning to contact the seller about the missing part. Will keep this updated.
