Adkins presses are superb, Xpres stock them. I use the 16x20 swing away, have done for years, they really are a workhorse but at around £1000 they should be. Adkins do a clamshell for nearer £500 as well.
Check out Target Transfers website as well as Xpres for some great presses.
I may be selling an Adkins press soon as I want to experiment with a couple of imported presses, probably looking for £500 plus postage if you're interested?
Go for a second hand Adkins if you can get one, otherwise you'll be into the cheaper press market which may be ok but you really do get what you pay for.

Cheers,
Justin

In my opinion Drucktech presses are great. They are really worth buying.

I agree Adkins swing away press is awesome, unfortunately I'm about to sell mine. Now I have 15 posts and I can put a little add in the classifieds section
