The pressing form fits a variety of adult-sized hats, like sun hats and ball caps, to provide a firm surface for curved materials. However, if I was running a business and I was going to make 40 hats, the hat press might not be the solution for me. Today, we’re going to put the new Cricut Hat Press to the test and try it on a wide variety of DIY hats so we can see what works and what doesn’t.

The app sends the time and temperature settings to your press, and as soon as you press start, a countdown begins for the exact time you need, depending on the material and blank you’re working with. You can see the vibrant colors, as well as the fact that there’s no ghosting even though I had to move the press back and forth.

The third setting has the right temperature for sublimation or Infusible Ink and it will set a timer for 90 seconds. I’ve also been thinking that the Hat Press and form would be AWESOME for adding designs to sleeves and can’t wait to try that.

This is due to the size of the hat press and the fact that you have to move it back and forth in constant motion when pressing. Once the material is cool to touch, slowly peel away the strong heat resistant tape and liner to reveal your new design. If you’re using another product, I would check with the manufacturer of either the blank or whatever you’re putting on your hat for the time and temperature.A down payment may be required and payment options depend on your purchase amount, are subject to an eligibility check and other exclusions, and may not be available in all states.

The elegant design of this press maximizes usable surface area for heat transfer while its natural curves minimize the potential of touching dangerous areas.

Simply select the previously used setting and Send to Hat Press to save time when pressing your commonly used materials. The purpose of preheating is to remove wrinkles and any residual chemicals or excess moisture from the fabric which might interfere with a successful transfer, so if your blank cools after preheating, prior to pressing your design, no problem! While we do not currently believe that hats are unsafe to wear after heat pressing using the Hat Pressing Form, we highly recommend you consult with your allergy specialist if you have any concerns about the severity of any allergies.
