Hi im new to heat presses so ive just basically been doing as much research as i can before i purchase a heat press.I need some recommendations for a first press.I need a press for 3 to 4 hundred dollars new that can stand 30 to 50 shirts a week.

Ive looked at Panther Press: 9"x12" - Hobby Heat Press but not sure if its made for the amount of work i have for it.

Does anyone have any suggestions or refferals for me .

Thanks

The only thing I would worry about with the hobby press, is the size. It does limit the space you can press a transfer on. I started with 2 of them, and it wasnt bad as I do childrens clothing. If you are planning on doing adult stuff, I would probably look for something a little bigger. I would check out the mighty press, or if you are not worried to much about brand name, you could even try the Sunie press. I know there is several threads on the debate of buying a brand name versus a non brand name, so you can find alot of info on this, by using the search function at the top of the page.

Here is one thread that comes to mind, when I think of buying a cheaper brand press. It was a long thread but has alot of good info in it. https://www.t-shirtforums.com/heat-p...rs/t36141.html

I myself have a the hotronix auto open 16 x 20, but that is only because I need this size for my dtg machine. It really comes down to what can you afford, and what space can you live with.
