    This is the absolute BEST heat press video online hands down! You're patient, and take time explaining everything in full detail. It really helped me understand my new heat press. I'm new to this for I've been hand painting shirts for years. I truly appreciate you for making this video. Thanks.

    This video was super helpful. I bought my heat press and have not been able to use it because it didn't come with instructions so I've been intimidated by it. This video helped me learn that the type of heat press I have is a swing heat press, how to set the time and temp, and so much more. Moreover, I appreciated the extra tidbits of information (sliding the plate - but not too much, pulling the table out to allow optimal space for the heat press, possible noises, the reminders to be very careful about the heat and all the parts that will be heated, to crunch low when adjusting the shirt,...so many nuggets of helpful information that helped prepare me for using my heart press). Thank you!

    Wow this was such a big help. Now I can finally stop destroying perfectly good solid-color t-shirts because my press didn't come with instructions. I'm commenting because I though the commercial ad at 5:33 was pretty funny. Thanks for posting this Alex!

    Thank you for this very clear explanation of how the swing press works. I have been trying to understand it before I buy it. Do you have to hold the handle down while pressing, or does it lock in place and maintain the pressure on its own? Thank you for taking your time to do this and help others!

I tried to use my heat press for the first time yesterday, and did not know how to set the temperature or timer - the vinyl edges are up and will probably come off in the first wash. Now I think I know how to do it. Thanks again.

    I want to thank you for your video - I have this exact heat press which was given to me by a co-worker however she did not provide any instructions or how to use - I am thankful I came across your how to video - this helps me a lot - I do not know how beneficial this heat press will be for me since I normally use my Cricut heat press - I am learning as I go along - I do have a question the circular knob that is located on the back - what does that knob adjust the height, direction, space, etc??
    I tried to push the set button as suggested and it makes all these beeping noises I push the up arrow down arrow but it does not do anything - I do not know if the lady who gave it to me had previous settings but it is not working for me - I will try and accommodate accordingly - I appreciate your help and assistance. Have a great rest of your day!

    thank you for this video..Everything went well minus the timer isn't counting down. So I'm just counting it myself. Do you know why it's not counting down?

    Thank you this was very helpful. Best video I’ve found. I do have a question. How did you stabilize your heat press?? I just got mine so it’s new. I took it out but when I open it and move to right side it tilts over due to wait. Is there a certain way to stabilize it??

    This was very helpful for me but as I was setting the press, I noticed that the inserts for the plates were missing so I’m guessing that I can’t use it😔. What a bummer. I ordered my press from Amazon. Thank you once again ☺️stay blessed 😇
