Hello Cricuters!
Congratulations to you if you are a new Cricut owner! Finding the right HEAT PRESS is the next BIG purchase you will probably make. If you are anything like me, you are ready to dive in and get started with making t-shirts! Well, whoa...slow down and consider your options, shop around, and take some time to make an informed decision.
When I first got started and I was ready to use HEAT TRANSFER VINYL (HTV) or Iron-on Vinyl, I didn't have a HEAT PRESS and I was using my regular household iron. Well, after about a month, I was ready to have a heat press! The first heat press that I purchased was my Cricut 9X9 EasyPress 2 and I fell in love with it. Watch me Unbox it here: • Video . I was still in my son's room at that time, lol! Here's my affiliate link to check it out: amzn.to/3eu7yaW
After having the 9 X 9 Cricut EasyPress 2 for awhile, I wanted a smaller press to get into the nooks and crannys of smaller objects, like coasters, socks, hats, etc. That's when I found the "tiny but mighty", HTVRONT Mini Press. I love that little thing. It heats up to 356 degrees, so it won't work for sublimation; but it is perfect for smaller objects. Here's my affiliate link to get one for yourself: amzn.to/3FDqBeO
The third HEAT PRESS that I purchased was what I like to call "the big daddy"! It is a 15 X 15 swing out heat press that came with multiple attachments! I love that heat press and all of the attachments; but I needed a dedicated space for it. I don't have much work space in my craft room and I knew that a clamshell would be better suited to meet my needs. Pay attention to the plate size and the dimensions of the heat press that you are considering. This is my affiliate link to purchase the 15 X 15 swing out heat press: amzn.to/3ewIj7Z
My current and most-used HEAT PRESS is the StarCraft 15 X 15 Clamshell that I purchased from 143vinyl. I am in love with this HEAT PRESS. I love the quality, color, ease of use, auto-off feature, and everything about it. Here is my link if you are interested in getting one for yourself!

I enjoyed this video so, so I went to subscribe and apparently I’m already subbed! I have notifications on but I rarely get notified of anyone’s new uploads so I’ve fixed it so I won’t miss anymore videos. Thanks for getting straight to the point and being autistic, you have a voice that is clear, calming and holds my focus. Also, you answered every questions I had. Much love ❤

[@rubylovegabuat957]

Hi Delonda, I am a beginner with zero knowledge, thank you very much for sharing, this helps a lot. God bless

You have a sweet spirit. I’m working on putting my room together then I will be ready.

Yay! I know your room is going to be awesome!

Thank you so much Delonda for the information. Just got my Cricut Maker for christmas so im sure ill soon be needing to look at heat presses 😄

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

That's awesome! Take your time, shop around, and look at the size options!

[@tonealjenkins5908]

I didn't know that i have a slide out because i have the one you got the swing out and you show me something that i don't know i had thank a lot i love watching you i try to learn something from you all the time

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

Yay!!! You might have to loosen the screws on the side because I didn't know that mine slid out at first, lol!

[@PurplePrincess2009]

You always provide such clear information on the various products that we can use to produce our crafts. Thank you so much!

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

Glad it was helpful!

[@misssocialdeb3777]

thanks for this video. Just what I needed, I started out with the 9x9, then I got the mini & discovered I still needed a bigger press & went with cricut's large press. I found for certain things I still need more presser, so this was helpful. Clam shell is what I need, then I am done purchasing. It never ends in crafting.

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

You are absolutely right! It never ends!

[@archer1990]

Great presentation, top tier. Better than a news reporter. Learned everything one needs to know.

Thank you ❤️ My husband made it for me.

[@RealPraise24]

Heyyyy 👋🏽 Delonda. I’m pretty much sold on the StarCraft Clam Shell heat press but everywhere I looked for one they’re all sold out! I’m trying to wait until they comeback in stock. Thanks for the video!👍🏽😊🧡

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

Oh no! On the 143vinyl website, you can turn on email alerts and it will notify you as soon as they are back in stock! That's how I was able to get mine.

[@louiseturner6611]

I started with a household iron, then I purchase the cricut mini. Thanks to my wonderful husband he told me to order a heat press so I now use a 15 X 15 heat press with 5 attchements which I haven't use the attachments yet. Goal for 2022 is to use each attachment. Delonda do you have a video using the different attachements?

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

That's awesome! I haven't used any of my attachments yet; is there one that you want me to try?

If he's more into it than you, then you're in good hands!!! That's awesome ❤❤❤

Hi Delonda!! How long have you had the Starcraft heatpress? Have you had any problems with it?

[@kelliestevens1031]

I love the heat press I have but it doesn’t come with all the other attachments. Have you used any of the attachments that came with the swing out? Great info!

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

Thanks!!! I haven't tried any of those other attachments yet 😭😭😭

[@Angel-TCCrafts2]

I have the swingout heatpress. I dont have enough space either but it still love it and i am not buying a nother one just yet. Hahaha Nice options you have there. Thnx for the product reviews 😉

[@Angel-TCCrafts2]

I am still too scared to try the mugpress that comes with it 😅. I will gonna give myself a kick in the butt and try to use it upcoming month 🙈😅

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

I haven't tried it yet either!

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

I love the swing out one too. I kept it on the table after the tutorial and my kids said I should leave it there for now. So, it's back in the original place 🙄🤣

Hi.. i want to start my small business by making sublimation coasters and keyholders so any suggestions what kind of heat press should i buy? I dont have any money so i cant buy the expensive one yet 😢so please i need a good advice and thankyou to everyone who can answer, really appreciate it❤️

[@danalynn8485]

Great points on every one! You forgot your mug press though lol.. have you ever had s time that you wish you had bigger then 15x15?

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

Yeah, I didn't mention the mug press and that is my favorite Cricut product! I don't feel like I need a bigger press because these are perfect for anything I've done.

[@prettylady5247]

Good evening I love your videos. Can you pls give me of your opinion about heat machine that I should to use machine for T shirt ? For beginning and basic to use heat press machine. What’s your recommendation to use heat machines with different size and names of machine. What do you think? Thank you

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

Thank you 💜 I shared all of my honest opinions in this video. Your decision should be based on the amount of space you have and your budget. If you are primarily doing shirts for friends/family not to go into sales, I still think a 15 x 15 is the perfect size...just my opinion.

[@prettylady5247]

You are welcome 😊 Thank you for feedback back. Thank you for honest about heat press machine I should to buy, is I need exactly names of heat press machines for 15x15 for enjoying likely small business. Also I don’t want anything additional with heat press machine with 5 or 8 in 1, that one I don’t need but just be creative of T shirts. I would like to make . Please let me know so I can keep myself to researching about hear press machines on websites. Thanks 🤗

[@prettylady5247]

Also I would like to know about heat press machine is Clamshell and Swing away, can you pls tell me what’s different better with clamshell and Swing away? Which one of machine that I should buy with right amount for 15x15 for clamshell or swing away? Thank you 😊

[@dieselbuff854]

Will this work on 11 inches in width and 15 in height dtf transfers?

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

Will what work?

[@hennieroggen-pieterman9799]

I started with the Cricut mini, then the 9x9 and now an A4 site. Unfortunatly After usingthis one 2 times the heatpress plate stopped working 😞 it would not get hot! It is now back to the manufacturer and waiting in the return

[@CraftingwithDelonda]

Wow! Only twice?!?! That's no fun. Hopefully it will be fixed soon. Is the mail running regularly?

[@hennieroggen-pieterman9799]

@@CraftingwithDelonda Yes it is, but the store is in between me and manufacturer. So I can't check how it is going or when it will be ready but I'm confident 😌

I don't know if u got my last message..I saw they have the same one u have but 8 in 1.. Do u think it's a good machine, I trust you and don't want ro buy something that's not good

Can your turquoise one do cups. Plates and hats

Nope. I would have to use my swing away for that.
