Even heat across the platen matters more than the top temperature · review
LOKLIK ImPress Auto 2, automatic open and close review
An automatic heat press that closes, applies the set pressure and opens by itself, with a pull-out drawer, four quick modes and a batch mode, reaching up to 210 °C, whose listing gives no platen size.
The bottom line Of the seven presses, the only automatic one with a drawer, quick modes and a batch mode, all suited to repeat work. It sells itself on comparisons — more pressure, faster heating, a larger opening — and publishes the figures for none of them.
The ImPress Auto 2 listing, bullet by bullet
Five bullets: an automatic press for cushion covers, T-shirts, blankets, aprons, hoodies, tote bags and socks thanks to a larger opening; time and temperature set manually or from a menu, a click when the mat is in place, automatic closing and opening, four quick modes and a batch production mode; more pressure than other machines, making DTF projects possible, applied automatically at the set level; heating up to twice as fast as comparable devices, even heat and up to 210 °C; and a 15-minute idle shut-off, a fully pull-out drawer and quieter running.
Automation on the LOKLiK press
The press closes, holds and opens without a hand on the lever. Timing becomes consistent across a batch, and the drawer keeps hands clear of the plate while loading. That is the design argument of the whole listing.
Comparisons without numbers
More pressure than other machines, twice as fast as comparable devices, a larger opening: three claims measured against unnamed competitors, with no figure for any of them. Each is reported as the maker’s statement.
The platen size the ImPress page omits
For a machine aimed at hoodies and blankets, the plate dimension decides what fits in one press. It is not stated, and it belongs on the checklist before ordering.
