I Hope HTVRont and Loklik come out with a sublimation oven for tumblers.
So mine would be the auto heat press 1. I bought it in February and have made so many things with it. Weāve made coaster shirts and canvases the canvases are probably my favorite DIY itās an easy creative past time with my child and great for childrenās parties and for couples to do. With the use of AI and art I get to have and make some amazing canvas paints. I started getting more into crafting this year more than ever so it took all the gas work out of things I may one day try and get a manual heat press, but itās made it so easy that even my son who can make and create things with me.
Can you show some of your canvases that youāve made?
While this wasnāt a new release in 2024, the Auto Heat Press was definitely a game changer for me. I originally purchased the Cricut t-shirt press, but didnāt care too much for it because it was 15x12. Once I received the HTVRont Auto Press, the other heat press has been sitting on the shelf. The difference 3 inches made was incredible!! In addition to the machine, I love their bundles. I just received one glitter HTV bundle and now Iām waiting on their sublimation bundle, sublimation paper, and sublimation spray. These machines and materials that HTVRont provides are of such great quality and havenāt gave me any problems. My next few purchases from HTVRont will be the Auto Press 2, the Tumbler Press, and Hat Press.
I love mines. Kinda want a third one BUT I want the newer one as well.
I would love to have that tumbler press as well.
I want the Auto Heat Press 2 so bad!!
Me too. Gonna get one after a while.
So I got the new mini 3 heat press. Sometimes I donāt want to heat up my big auto press to do little things like htv on a book cover. Well thatās where the mini heat press 3 came in. Was absolutely great, it heated up in no time. Also found out that the cradle it sits in, is a cup holder. The mini heat press 3 has a curved bottom, which allows you to do cups. I drew some designs, printed on HTVRont sublimation paper and heated it up with the mini heat press 3. Its amazing, this has so many uses. I even put some htv on my daughters shoes to give her fast lightning bolts, she loves them.
Best product of 2024 though was the Loklik Impress auto 2 smart. Happiest day of the year though, was when my loklik impress auto heat press 2 smart came in the mail. I was jumping with joy when the delivery guy said, oh was making sure some one was home before getting the big box out. I was not expecting it to arrive so soon. Was my Christmas present to myself. I canāt believe how much of an improvement it is from the old one. I loved my HTVRont auto press, I have used it so much in the year and a half I have loved it. Hasnāt skipped a beat. The new one does everything the old one does but so much better. Adjusting any of the settings is so simple, there is a whole gallery of heating presets with the option of creating 4 custom settings. The touch screen is pretty and bright and easy to read. The tray pulls out further for easy access. The added adjustable pressure means I donāt have to worry about if I will have trouble pressing anything. Only got some dtf transfers the other day to try out and it worked great. Never gave them ago before because it is advised to have firm pressure. Absolutely love it, and Iām so glad I did the upgrade. Will still use my old press but canāt get over how great the new one is, more orders out the door faster.
I just love that htvront and loklik are listening to the feedback they get from their customers and improving their products with every iteration.
So jealous, you got the auto press 2. Thatās on my wish list together withthe iCraft and manual press. All the products are so pretty, I want to collect them all
Really liking the auto press 2, I think itās really worth the upgrade. I know all there products are so cute. I canāt wait till the icraft comes out too
I definitely want them all. Got to have em all. Do my budget need them all (no). Can my small space hold them all (no). Well I get them all ( I got to). Lol or at least try!
This is me as well I want them all but the wallet and space donāt permit
@Mykraftaddiction @timmytation I think weāre all the same! What we want, what we need and what we can have are three different answers
So far I have 2 Loklik Crafters, 1 htvront easy press, 1 Loklik mini press 2, and the latest addition to the collection - a Loklik hat heat press (thank you @loklik for the prize from the Christmas event. With the help of the admin - thank you admin @Elena , I was able to get my prize even though Iām from the Asian region
)
I had to let go of my auto press though so I can buy a pigment ink printer hoping to get an auto press 2 or a manual press in the future
Awww lucky you. And a big shout out to @Elena for making it happen and it reaching you. No one should miss out on their winnings as they are well deserved.[quote=ātimmytation, post:35, topic:285, full:trueā]
