The press has Dual Digital LED control. Both the temperature and time controller are integrated into one display for ease of use and are both controlled by a microprocessor program for greater accuracy. It also has an overload design which helps to protect the machine if voltage is too high or unstable. 

Features

The Vevor 5-in-1 Heat Press has a heating plate that can be rotated 360 degrees. This allows you to work more accurately by moving it out of your way when placing designs, and also means that you can move the heating element safely away from you, limiting the risk of accidental contact and burns. 

The heat press also has a full-range pressure adjustment knob. This means that pressure can be evenly distributed across the entire plate when the machine is closed. The small handle on the side makes this easy to operate. 

The bottom platform of this heat press printer has sliding rails, making it easy to swap out the fittings for other options, making this a flexible option for creating all kinds of creative designs. The handle is spring release and is fitted with antiskid yellow rubber. This means your hand won’t slip while using the machine, allowing more accurate printing finishes. The handle is also ergonomic, making the machine easy and comfortable to operate. 

This VEVOR 5-in-1 Heat Press machine comes with a large range of accessories. There are a variety of fittings provided with the machine, including a Teflon-coated platen press, a hat/cap press, two mug presses and two plate presses.

This makes this an ideal option for making promotional items for trade shows, creating personalised items to give as gifts or to sell at craft fairs or for making all kinds of creative craft projects. You could print vacation photos onto a jigsaw puzzle, make hats for your friends, make personalised bags for the kids or print your own designs onto t-shirts. 

This heat press machine is available in a variety of sizes, meaning you can choose the right size for your home or your workspace or for the kinds of design that you wish to create. The smaller sizes are ideal for home use, while the large ones would work well in a commercial setting. 

 

Pros

  • Intelligent control for ease of use
  • Overload protection
  • Swing away arm to protect you from burns
  • Pressure adjustment knob for even designs
  • Easy to use sliding rail to exchange the fittings
  • Wide range of accessories for different uses

Cons

  • The temperature gauge will need assembly on arrival
  • Poor packaging
  • Screws will need tightening before first use
  • No instructions included so you will need to do your own research to use it
  • No automatic timer
  • No warranty is offered
  • Cannot be left plugged when not in use due to fire risk

Conclusion

A little bit more evolved than a press for beginners, the VEVOR 5-in-1 is much better suited for those who’ve already used a press before (but don’t necessarily have to be experts). It’s a very detailed and intelligent press, great if you’re wanting to buy a press that can be used on multiple materials or objects.
