From The Manufacturer

Cricut easypress gives you professional iron-on results in 60 seconds or less. Combining the speed of a heat press and the convenience of iron, easypress eliminates guesswork so you get fast and foolproof results that really stick, even after repeated washes. Use our handy reference chart to determine correct time and temperature settings for your project, apply gentle pressure, and when the Beep sounds, you’re done! with adjustable heat up to 350℉ (180 C), it’s ideal for foil, glitter and metallic projects as well as large and layered projects. Helpful safety features include an insulated resting base and auto-shutoff feature. Easypress is lightweight, portable, easy to store, and compatible with major brands of heat-transfer material. And of course, it’s a perfect complement to Cricut Cutting machines.

Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

The easypress delivers a flawless quality press that compares quite well to what you would expect from a heat press. Designs still look as good as new even after half a dozen washes.
- Cutting Machine Reviews
The built-in timer promotes ultimate precision of EasyPress up to 60 seconds, and the beep lets you know that it is time to remove the press
- 10 Techy
This Cricut heat press, however, is super easy to manage thanks to the big handle on top and the Safety Base below. The auto-shutoff feature also makes sure that everything is only hot for as long as you need it — there’s no way that little hands are getting burned using it.
- Vinyl Cutting Machines
For crafters with small workspaces, the Cricut EasyPress is a dream come true. It comes in at only 5 pounds, compared to my Heat Press which is 10X the weight at 51 pounds. The EasyPress can easily be tucked away in a cupboard, shelf, drawer or anywhere out of sight.
- Ken's Kreations
Another excellent benefit of EasyPress over the traditional heat press is that it’s not bulky. Cricut EasyPress has a heat press area of 9″ x 9″. Furthermore, it comes with a fantastic Safety Base that makes it easy to store.
- Heat Press Review
You will also love how safe the Easy Press is. Along with the handle mentioned above, you’ll appreciate the auto-shutoff included to make sure it only stays hot for so long. If you have any young, aspiring artists around, you won’t risk their hands getting burnt either.
- Heat Press Guide
With the Cricut EasyPress, you know that the iron on you apply will stay stuck to your material even through wash after wash after wash. This is all due to the evenly distributed heat you cannot find with a regular iron.

What reviewers didn't like

The machine requires added pressure from the user during usage unlike the place and lock mechanism of standard heat presses
- Cutting Machine Reviews
Requires a hard surface to be pressed on with pressure
- 10 Techy
If you’re doing large numbers of T-shirt transfers, say, or running a business, the Easy Press probably isn’t up to the job.
- Vinyl Cutting Machines
Requires maximum input 120V outlet. Not recommended for use outside North America.
- Ken's Kreations
It requires added pressure from the user
- Heat Press Review
If you’ve worked with an iron before, you know how little space it takes up. Even though the Easy Press is compact, it still doesn’t match the portability and storage convenience of a regular iron.
