Thanks to this wonderful crafting community that HTVRONT & LOKLik has put together, I was able to apply to be a hands-on reviewer for the A200 and very fortunate to be one of the two chosen to review this new tumbler press. I was sent the HTVRONT A200 Auto Tumbler Heat Press Pro Kit (plus a 40 oz curved tumbler was included!) and this machine came ready to impress! If you make tumblers this press is a gamechanger. I’m pretty sure it just became my new craft-room BFF!
What’s in the Box?
Right out of the gate, HTVRONT packed this machine meticulously. I am always impressed by how well packed and protected the machines are inside the box. Inside the A200 machine box I found:
- The A200 Auto Tumbler Heat Press machine in that pretty powder-blue color and black sparkle on the function plate
- A pair of thick heat-resistant gloves (notice the size difference in these gloves compared to previous pairs I have received with other HTVRONT machines- they are huge!)
- Heat-resistant tape
- 2 Protective silicone mats- 4mm & 2mm
- A clear and simple user guide
- And yes—everything was organized, clean, and beginner-friendly
Then came the second box: the A200H curved tumbler plate kit – perfect for 40 oz curved tumblers and handled cups we all love. The plates feel sturdy, high quality, and absolutely built for crafting marathon sessions. There was a silicone mat included for the curved tumbler and BONUS- a 40 oz curved tumbler!
Swapping the Plates is SO Easy!
One of the biggest surprises? How simple the plate swap is.
In my quick tutorial video below, I show it step-by-step, but here’s the short version: pop the old plate out, line up the new one, click it in place, and boom—you’re ready for straight or curved tumblers in seconds. No tools. No frustration. No guessing.
First Impression
The A200 feels sleek, modern, and super user-friendly. The digital controls are crisp and intuitive, and the machine itself feels luxe- not bulky or cheap. I haven’t even pressed my first tumbler yet, and I’m already impressed with the quality of this machine.
If you want to see everything that came inside the box and how it looks up close, I have included a link to my TikTok unboxing video below. Trust me, if you love sublimating tumblers, then you’re going to want to see this.
