Htvront Auto Heat Press Vs Cricut Auto Press for Sublimation

Both Auto Press Machines On SALE right now!! 3/21/24
I am adding HTV sublimation on black fabric and then pressing my sublimation print on top. A great way to sublimate on dark fabrics!
I'm also testing out my new heat press that was gifted to me - the HTVRONT auto heat press to see how it compares to the Cricut Auto Press. Is there much of a difference in the final product? Is the Cricut Auto Press worth the extra cost when it comes to sublimation??

Like the shape of the HTVRONT one! It's really pretty!

I have both. I bought the Cricut when it was half priced. The htvront blows circuits. I had to have my htvront in the basement with a dedicated line otherwise my lights flashed and the circuit would blow. The cricut doesn’t. I can run my Cricut in the same line and at the same time to my 16x20 press without issue. You can’t run an htvront and Cricut at the same time on the same circuit. I do have a pullout press that is 16x20 that I use the most. It is not the machine but rather the pressure. If you use 2 pads on the Cricut you will actually get better ink saturation on the Cricut and likewise you can use the same on the htvront. Htvront blowing circuits is a known issue.

Can someone PLEASE tell me why the switch (on) light keeps blinking non-stop, is this some type of malfunction?

I prefer the simple design of HTVRont, and the operation is super simpler！
