Default Re: Is it safe to buy a heat press that was a demo unit?

A 9x12 press is still quite large for baby clothing. We don't have any clients using anything but a label press, unless their budget won't allow them that choice.

The main problem is that quite a few of the baby garments have such a small area that can be imprinted. Worse, many have "buttons, bangles and bows" that cannot go in the press.

A label press provides the easy ability to pull the garment over the lower platen. The three that I would suggest considering are: The Stahls' Hotronix STX-6, the Mighty Press MP4 and the Knight DK8. All are very nice and efficient.
