Adding Hat Press Feedback Needed

[Image Embroidery]

Good morning all!

I have been debating adding a Hat Press to my store.
Does anyone have any advice on this topic?
My heat press is a 16 X 20 GeoKnight Swing Away and I love it.
I checked the Stahl's pricing and they want $695.00 plus another $168.00 for the Interchangable Cap Platens. This seems a little pricey. Am I wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Stick with GeoKnight and get their hat press with the teflon 'hold down' strip-makes it so much easier and faster.
They are in Mass., build and have parts for them right there. Not 'imported'.
Stahls is good but they 'buy' other machines made under their label by MightyPress-which is what I have for hat press with couple size platens. I bought the hold down strip from GeoKnight and decided any further presses (shirt or hat) will be directly from Knight. Well worth it.
You pretty much do get what you pay for...the 'heavier duty' heat area, solid construction, etc. means a few more $$....but that means years more dependable service.
