To say you'd rather call them junk than to sing their accolades because you've read enough about OTHER presses to bias your opinion, is to say back in the 70's and 80's, "I've heard enough bad about Toyota and Honda cars to not endorse them, I don't want to be the person to sing their accolades and have YOU get a bad one". I know plenty of people who swear by a brand and on that reccommendation, I've gotten the same brand only to have a terrible experience with it myself.
Why not simply say that YOU wouldn't suggest one because YOU wouldn't buy one. I've had good experiences with mine, another member here has had good experiences with his, that's 2 positives that I can give you for this sub $300 press.
If you're on a tight budget, need a good size press, this is a safe gamble. The company will ship you parts or a replacement if you happen to get a dud. Sunie.com actually tests each press before shipping it to try to ensure you won't experience a press that's DOA. | |  | |  | |
I am not referring to your press. That one is different from the one I called junk. I woudl assume the poster above has the the same press I had (the one that does not do plastisol, as said by the company, from transferssupplies or whatever) and was happy with it. After my experience and my $$ loss I will not say anything other than those are junk. I am not speaking about all chinese presses I am not that wordly
I am actually happy yours works for you! After being burnt its not a risk I am willing to take again. Wish I woudl of used that company and the cheap way was successful but it wasn't. My chinese press was Junk. Mine sold to me from Ebay, chinese, was junk. My opinion will never change

I could not disagree with this more. Easy for you to say when you got a good one. I got a bad one so I will never agree its a safe risk.
