Hi Katrina, the piece that melted is a small square foam pad (shipping pad) that you were to remove before heating. It’s easy to miss.

[@katrinasgracefulcreations3711]

@@teondadunn1148 didn’t seem like a pad….a shipping pad that small….weird. I have had so many presses and none of them had anything in between.

[@MsCree01]

Should have had a warning label to remind you to remove it

[@tinataylor9327]

FINALLY! Someone 8 trust that purchased this. I ordered it in May. Had the same issue as you with that shipping pad that they don’t have a pre-warning to remove it’s hidden in the back of the manual. Initially, when I pulled the drawer out and inspected the mat that piece of material wasn’t there it obviously was stuck to the upper platen due to electro static. And when I was testing open and closing and trying to get the pressure, it was heating up and I was smelling this plastic come to find out what it was so now I got plastic residue stuck to the top of it. A little bit is on the mat, but I can’t get it off the top. When I chatted with their support, they were like you gotta let it cool down and then scrape it off. My set up button doesn’t work like you show it and I even videoed and sent it to their support team showing the set up button doesn’t work. But it’s like two or three days before they respond.

[@tinataylor9327]

They only reference that on page 10 of the user manual. By then it’s too late if you haven’t seen it and already started testing the temps.

[@lauraeaton610]

​@katrinasgracefulcreations3711 the htvront auto press comes with a Styrofoam block between the plates that has to be removed before heating. And both mention it in the user manual.

[@erickahawley7957]

I just think of course it's a common mistake but sometimes you just have to take your time and remove everything and look at the instructions to see what to remove before plugging it up. All heat presses and printers come with different, some more and some less papers and tapes to remove. And you could have saved that shirt if you reheated it a lil longer and added the teflon sheet. But you are still my fav to watch and learn from Ms K

[@shengchen-cw2lj]

Thank you for sharing! I also used the iron at home to transfer the heat successfully, but also took a video record of the process, but the operation is too tired, there is a suitable machine has a certain sense

[@teecousins8101]

Cool, Rebox, and send it back for another one or refund 😮

[@silkeschumann7261]

It was a foam pad. I got lucky, because as soon as I saw it heat up, I switched the press off and to screw the handle on I flipped it to the side and thus it fell out. I only noticed it much later on the table. And I also learned that the pressure 5 is still on the low end. You need to raise the pad with solid cardboard or thick felt, so the design is really engrained into the fabric. You can likely use a spatula to remove the melted foam from the top plate.

[@katrinasgracefulcreations3711]

Good morning thank you for your response. However, I’m still trying to get this thing to work. I have heat pressed a couple of T-shirts on it but yesterday it just shut down not totally, but you can’t do anything with the buttons and the very top where it says temperature where it looks like 888 and with an F on the right hand side the thing that lights up now is it a little triangle at the very top of the supposedly 888 and nothing works. Did you ever come across this.

Hi Katrina, I have the HTV Ront and had similar problems at the beginning. Until I realized that my plotter foils for the Cameo prefer to be peeled off cold. It is similar with DTF. At least 60% of them prefer to be cold-stripped. With plotter films from Sef, or Poly-Tape, for my large plotter from Vevor, there is no problem with cold stripping. Many thanks for your great and helpful videos. Best regards from Germany

Its always so interesting to me that one bad review how many people won't buy it lol - that pad was supposed to be removed its a packing thing when you pull out to put the handle on you can see it to remove it - so of course the teflon will keep sticking because its on the top plate - I had to play around with temps and settings and save my favorite in the machine =) I had one shirt I put a piece of cardboard inside the shirt to add more pressure but it was an iffy shirt aka crappy lol I was playing =) There will always be pros and cons to all machines - one more thing - my tray slides out after the 3 beeps on its own I noticed you had to pull yours when finished - this is meant to walk away and it will stop and slide out when done in case you did step away - very interesting review LOL =) I didn't have nearly as many issues - BUT this was my very first heat press besides the cricut easy press so I have nothing else to compare it too =) So far I love mine =) Time will tell =) Thank you for your time and review =)

[@tinataylor9327]

Trust me, everything that she has demonstrated is true because I’ve had the same issues. I haven’t even been able to use it to press a project because 1) that plastic white pad melted to the top of the platen and I have no way to scrape it off. I even tried to scrape it while it was still warm. 2) The instruction manual is horrible if it wasn’t for the fact that she demonstrated using it most people would be confused by the manual. My set up button does not work at all and I have to contact them to return it even though it’s past 30 days.
