Default Heat press worth it?

I just wanted to get an opinion if this press was a good one or not for $160.00. It's a knight press, but I'm guessing it's an old one. I am thinking this would eliminate having to get chemicals and inks for now, until I make a little money or something. Thanks for any opinions.

Hey tiger, I did some searching on the forums before posting this. There was a thread one of the mods where they went over different heat transfer things and listed like the top five heat presses and some links to where you can purchase them. I'd have to look through my history and find the thread, it was really helpful.

Like I said I'd rather do screen print, but don't think I can afford all the inks etc. Maybe I should just buy little bit at a time... I don't know... I get myself discouraged the more I check prices and have no money lol.
