I purchased the autopress in order to sublimate shirts and other items easily. So far I am very impressed with the Autopress. It's easy to use and I love that it auto opens when it's done with the press. I got it when it was 70% off and I'm sure glad I did. Worth every penny.
I don't have to stand over and watch my time. Automatically opens when desired time is reached. No need to adjust anything to determine the amount of pressure.
I have purchased many Cricut products and as all the others this is a great addition to my many Cricuts. The auto press is easy to use and works flawlessly. It does take a little getting used to because the throat is not as deep as the other clamshell presses. Not a major drawback at all.
Received my Autopress and I have to say I am way more impressed than I thought I would be! The setup was extremely easy and quick. Learning curve is very small. I really like that I can now do shirts without having to move them and dislodge the print (I have another autopress that has slide out shelf). I would highly recommend this to anyone who uses iron-on vinyl or sublimation.
