Customer Reviews for VEVOR Button Maker 1inch/25mm Button Badge Maker 500 Button Parts+Circle Cutter

This button press is very nice. The buttons look great. I got the 3in1. The larger sizes press very nicely. But the 1.25" are very finnicky. I have had to throw out many due to the mylar not pressing together 100%around the button edges. I think you have to use very thin lightweight paper for those. That is not something i was told about. The lightweight copy paper does not look the best. Photo paper looks the best but it's too thick to work. Hopefully i find a resolution to the issue with the 1.25" without any more loss. I feel the company should throw in a few extra for button pieces that have a defect. There arent many but it happens.

Making the buttons was super easy (I watched all the videos first and read many reviews and a couple blogs to prep) but my pinbacks were not aligned correctly even though I put them exactly vertical as I did for the button face. They were off by about 15 degrees. Maybe it is just my machine? I eventually learned that the tiny almost invisible arrows on the rims of the molds are there for a reason - once I started aligning the materials to the arrow rather than vertically the button came out with the pinback \"level\" to the image. It was counterintuitive because on my machine the arrow on the pinback mold is not in the same orientation as the arrow on the face mold. My brain could not accept this so I made several crooked-pin buttons before I finally tried obeying the arrows. Then the pinbacks came out level with the image. I still don't understand it... Hopefully the machine won't break like I've read in other reviews. Will update this review if it does. All supplies were included as advertised, it shipped a little late but that was not a big deal for me. Instructions are poorly written as other reviewers have noted. They should add more details about achieving correct orientation of pinback and button face. They should make the tiny almost invisible arrows VISIBLE! Black-on-black is not a great color combo. I used several thicknesses of paper and they all worked fine.

It's not the highest quality but it does work. I made about 20 so far with no issue, BUT the first 2 my partner made didn't work. After some investigation she wasn't pushing all the way down. I think thats the problem others are having, on the second push it feels like it stops but if you push a bit more it pops down. The metal backs dont hold the actual pin in so it wobbles a bit, but the plastic ones work great.

Seems like an excellent machine. Well built and solid design. Mine didn’t come with the 58mm film circles, so I am unable to try it. Appears to have everything other than, but I must wait for the circles I had to order from someone else.

The instructions are poorly translated so they are confusing. I damaged 2-3 buttons before I got the hang of it. But otherwise a really good quality product and simple to use once you get the hang of it. A Youtube video tutorial was very helpful.
