Default hat press?

I am thinking off getting a hat press and would like to get some opinoins on what kind to get and whether or not people think it is worth while to add to a small part time bussiness. I am looking at the MC mighty cap for 450.00 or the geo knight dk7 for 553.00

Thanks
Brian

IF you plan on getting the most out of a cap press, use it to do sleeves and collar transfers as well for shirts. Make sure you get one with an adult size platen. Go with a reputable company (Geo Knight, Hotronix, Hix, Insta,...) and you should be fine. Best wishes.

check out ebay, you can find a good press for half price. I bought a hix 250 for less than 1/2 price and it works good. You can find name brand press' like Hix, insta,hotronixs and geo knight. Good luck. .... JB
