I haven't heard much about that brand (actually nothing so far).

I have a National Screen Printing Equip press. I bought mine used for $150. i thought it was a great deal. Machine seems to work great. I've only used a few times to press a few shirt for the family but so far so good. Still hoping to start selling shirts one day.

I've heard of it, but not much more. If I had to go out on a limb I'd say they were a good press, but that they're old enough that that could be a concern? But I'm going on vague memory, so...

I have a National HAT press and it works perfect. Had it for three years with nary a problem.

I use a laser pointer type thermometer to adjust the temps.
