1: Cricut Mug Press

This machine costs about $150.
It's awesome for heat pressing mugs. I've tried hacks for tall tumblers and ruined 3 tumblers because it just does not work well enough.
The temperature is set for mugs and is not adjustable.
There is no timer or control panel. Just plug in and start.
If you are primarily doing just mugs, it's great.

2: WalaOven Sublimation Oven
[ Ссылка ]
This oven costs about $230 (but it's on sale right now for $200)--and look at that teal!
This is the biggest of the heat presses, but it's super versatile.
It can sublimate mugs, straight walled and tapered walled tumblers, ornaments, keychains, dog bowls and more.
Everything needs to be shrink wrapped so the image is pressed firmly against the blank while heating.
There's an upper and lower temperature setting as well as a timer and display.

3. HTVRont Auto Tumbler Heat Press
[ Ссылка ]
This machine costs $170 and is brand new on the market...comes in white or blue.
It's a compact size. It can do 2 mugs at a time. It can do stainless steel tumblers up to 30 ounce. It can do glass jars or beer cans. It can do ceramic as well.
Up to 3.35 inches in diameter and 9 inches long.

4. Hitprex Manual Tumbler Heat Press
[ Ссылка ]
This machine costs $140 and comes in orange or yellow.
The tumbler needs to be inserted into the machine before heating up. Then the machine will warm up, and when it reaches temperature it will count down the timer.
Works for tumblers 16, 20 and 30 ounce straight walled.
Can do glass and ceramic as well.

So, do I have a favorite?
Kind of.
I have loved using all of them, but if I could only have one, it would be the Sublimation oven because it can do so many different blanks.
I love the compact size of HTVRont Auto Tumbler Press too.

I gave the Hitprex Tumbler Press to my crafting bestie because she didn't have a tumbler heat press...so it felt right to share.

The biggest question is which one is right for you?
Do you just want to do straight walled tumblers and glass jars or mugs? Are you hoping to do 40 ounce tumblers and tapered walled tumblers?
Do you have a limited crafting space?

I love all these machines and they all have their pros and cons.

Let me know if you have specific questions!
