Need help - what PRESS is this?

BTW, it is a 15x15 - that I do know... It also says HSM-012 - does that mean anything to anyone? I tried googling it but came up with nothing...

Heya people! I guess then that no one recognizes what heat press is on the picture and whether it is worth buying...?

There are a lot of generic heat presses out there. My guess is that if you can't find any brand or company name associated with it, it's a generic one.

I am not saying that generic is bad (who knows?), but if there's no brand name to go by, people will not really be able to give their opinions on it because they won't have the same model.

Does it come with a warranty? The machine *looks* fine, so if it comes with a decent warranty, and the price is right, I say go for it.

Well I finally got some info from the guy, HSM-12 is Japanese?! (still cant find any info about it on the net).
He says he has been selling them for a year now, it is NEW, has a 1 yr warranty on it and it is HALF the price of the HIX presto model I was looking into...

So if anyone has ANY experience or knowledge about the HSM heat press to share I would greatly appreciate it...
Cheers!

p.s. Since I am in Europe, and to those of you going to the Vegas show, if anyone happens to see it or hear about it (HSM) let me know. THNX!

I thought it might be a Chinese or Japanese press. There was a picture of a blue one posted not long ago. I think both were offered on e-bay and may still be there. Along with price, check on warranty and shipping as well. Teflon heat platon...yes or no? Temperature range and electrical plug set up for your particular electric needs...yes or no?

hi i have a press looks the same and i`ve been using it for about a year.i have good results with it.If your starting out with small amount of funds like i did.It has made me money to buy a better one .

Warranty is 1 yr, no shipping because he local, as for the electrical plug I assume it is for the european market... Anyhow, he ordered 6 more presses, should be in next week so I will go in and see for myself, and he offered to test it in front of me (bring in a shirt...)
