AutoPress failure

Bad experience. My first AutoPress died. It would no longer heat. It was out of warranty. So I ordered a new one during the winter sales. It set up fine and did a quick test press. Today it does not work and gave me en error 91 message. I will call Member Care as it is less than a month old and didn’t even use it on one project. But I am very disappointed. I ca...

Disappointing Experience With Cricut AutoPress

I purchased a brand new Cricut AutoPress expecting a premium, professional-grade heat press. Unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing due to issues with both the product and the replacement process.
The original Cricut AutoPress I received was defective on first use. Immediately after unboxing, the machine would not function properly. When pressing the ...

Cricut Auto Press for Essential Tremors People!

It is big, it is heavy, but it works so fast, thanks to its Auto Mode! I have essential tremors and found no matter how hard I tried, I could not keep my Cricut Heat Press II from ghosting. When it went on sale at Thanksgiving time, I realized my tremors will not get any better and decided to buy the Auto Press. To no have to lift up the press (that’s when I kept “ghost...

Automatically Easier Press

This has been a game changer for sublimation projects! It doesn't get any easier than dialing in a temp & time, close the "lid" and walk away.

Fantastic press

I have the easy press and liked it but when I saw this decided to give it a try. Oh my goodness. It is absolutely the best. I love the security of how it presses the right way and comes up when it is done. My hands don't have to hold it down hoping I am doing it the right way. It is so nice.

I love my autopress.

I own two autopresses as I required one in my summer home too. They are so easy to use and provide the user with not having to lift the press. I'm very arthritic and if it wasn't for these..I wouldn't be able to craft. So thank you Cricut for this amazing machine.

Great machine

When the Autopress went on sale I decided to go for it. Although it takes up a lot of space, it’s a wonderful machine!! No more guessing pressure or worrying about a heat press sliding. The only drawback for me is when your project is larger than the pad then I have to use my heat press to press in sections.

Heats well but cord connection design needs work.

Works and heats up well. Only issue is sometimes when it opens it causes the electric cord to come loose from the back of the machine. I’ve made sure it’s inserted well each time but it still does it on occasion.

Not worth it!!

I bought this machine a while ago. They had to send me a new one before i ever go to use it. I have now used it maybe 4 days altogether and it stopped working in the middle of pressing a shirt. It was so difficult to even get them to replace the first one. Not worth the money! My sister has the small press and it works great.

Honest opinion

Took a little getting used to. Works a little differently than my previous heat press. Seems to take longer to heat up.
When cycle is complete, the press release is louder than I think it should be. Makes the credenza where it sits shake. Like it’s too tight?
I do really like it.

E31 error

Most of this autopress including mine have faulty sensor. Onece you get this alarm E31, there is no way to fix it.that's why they lower the price from 1000 to 300..not worth it to buy.
