It's so simple that there can't be that much wrong with it. It's very limited though by its screen and platen size to pocket sized items and single colour only.
You would also need a machine to 'flash' (or cook)the design, and emulsion and a scoop coater to create your stencil. He has used a computer, printer and acetates to make that fine design and then transferred it to photo emulsion. To do that you would need an exposure unit or similar. You would also needemulsion and chemicals to remove your emulsion when you change your design.
You would require inks, and then chemicals to remove those inks and a washout place with a hose. The cost will grow - by quite a bit.
To do what he just did you probably don't need that machine. Put the shirt on a table and print onto it there. That machine doesn't give you much more than that; and you could use a bigger screen.

You could build your own press for less money and make it nicer than this press. You could spend $60 more and buy a nice professional single color press and it would be rock solid and have quality parts a good platen and off contact and tilt adjustments. The press looks good for hobby type stuff but nothing more. It might be good to get to just try out screen printing to see if you like it but also cheap equipment can be frustrating to use if you want good clean quality results.

You should be able to make better press with table clamps

Jamie Knight sells these(below) for US$29 per pair

How can you say it's a POS? It "comes with bonuses to help you get started quick"!
Don't you likes bonuses?

What was with the constant sliding around of the press in the video? Kind of like a guy on a sidewalk playing a shell game. And as for the wooden "oven", yeah, that's not a fire hazard. If he'd make the top out of metal, he could've been grilling up some weenies while he was cooking the shirt. Can't you just hear 'em sizzling now?

And he should've edited out and reshot the part where he was installing the platen, and the screw fell out. Makes it look shoddy. Oh, wait . . . .

Like the others said, get some jiffy clamps.
