Even heat across the platen matters more than the top temperature · review
HTVRONT’s second automatic press, adding adjustable pressure and extra working height to the 15 × 15 inch plate, with an angle-adjustable screen and auto-off.

More clearance lets you press bulkier objects, a change the listing leads with.
At 1,500 W, it draws most of a 15 A circuit. Plug it into its own outlet.
