Default Which one to buy??

Hello everyone,

I need some help. I am just starting and would like to spend no more than $1000 at this point on a heat press, however I would really like to spend around $500. But a year from now I don't want to have to turn around and buy another press. I only suspect on doing about 150-200 shirts a month. I also want to do puzzles and wine bags. I have shopped and shopped online and I don't know what to buy. I have been looking at Hix and Geo Knight Presses, but open to anything at this point.

What are the real differences between spending $300 or $600 or even $1000 on these things. I do want the best quality that I can get for my final product, but is the price increase really going to increase the quality of my final product?

Help!
Thanks a bunch,
Jaime
