I would have purchased the Roland if funds had allowed. I always buy the top of the line when I can. If you look in the classified section, there is a sponser offer for the roland at 1395 I think.

Hi, if you don't need to cut transfers just buy the Copam,, I have one and I looked and compared everything out there,, you can't go wrong, its heavy duty and will cut anything you put in front of it,, it will also cut with up to 500 grams of down force,, something the Roland cannot do,,,, I don't know when you would ever use that much but the horsepower is there if you need it,,, sign forums also gave it a excellent review... Just because its made in China you cannot discount this machine,, heck I think all of them are made off shore any ways.. just my 2 cents..

Most of the people looking at the GX24 here on thee T-shirt forum are looking for something to cut transfer paper. If that is a requirement, yu'll be SOL with the Copam. Other than that, I think you'll be happy. I have a 24" Refine which it a step down form the Copam and it has served me well. It paid for itself in 2 jobs.

If I was buying a machine today it would definitely be the copam. From the reviews and word of mouth there is no doubt I would be purchasing it. I have a US Cutter Refine and it works great for a $250.00 machine.

FROM my reasearch and everybodys comments i think it does not thats why they get the roland GX-24 because it has those eye sensors that allow you to cut transfers.

I think Manny is correct. I do not have the Copan but I do have a GX24. I do not think the Copan has optic eye to cut around an transfer image...
