> 3 dayI got mine for about $350 which is a killer deal! The unit is all aluminum so it is really light. However this press can produce 10 tons pressure which idk having the whole press made from aluminum idk how safe that would b. However I come no where near applying that much pressure. So for me its a killer deal

Greater than one weekThis press is one of the best purchases Ive made to date! I did my research before buying, making sure that I had a reliable machine to make my medicinal concentrates with. The build quality is undeniably among the best. Dont let the aluminum frame fool you, its rugged and strong. The hardware is of the more expensive variety and keeps everything together rock solid. The plates are anodized aluminum. This is probably the best material for pressing plates. Some people say aluminum is soft and will warp from heat stress. The anodization process hardens the aluminum to eliminate these concerns while also maintaining the superior thermal properties of aluminum. The controller is pretty basic, using two PID units to control two heat rods in the plates. Nothing too fancy, but it works. Why change simple if it works? The one complaint I have is that the hydraulic hand pump is not included, but its not enough to take a star off, although the pump was out of stock when I ordered. This is actually a plus, however, as you can build your own pump with gauge for likely cheaper, and it doesnt raise the cost of the press itself. However, once their branded pump was back in stock, I went with that option. It would be nice if the gauge on the pump could show you the PSI at the puck, but the design means the gauge only shows the pressure in the hydraulic line. Its not super difficult to do the math to figure out the actual PSI, but a bit of a hassle. Since I have no idea if a gauge could display PSI at the puck, and especially in this price range, then I dont consider that reason to remove a star either. It may just be the nature of the beast. Ive only pressed a few small nugs so far, but the results were better than expected. The quality obtainable with a beginners level of skill makes me very excited to see what its capable of once I improve! One of the best presses around!

> 3 dayMy first unit arrived damaged during shipping but was able to get a replacement very quickly. I would definitely recommend this press to anyone getting into solventless extraction and doesnt want to break the bank. Works great and ideal for personal pressing.

> 3 dayThis is THE BEST prebuilt press for the money. By a LOT. If anyone is looking for an inexpensive, high quality personal press (or even for business purposes), look no further. I spent hundreds of hours researching prebuilt presses, and this one is head and shoulders above EVERYTHING ELSE in this price range, and is actually better, and higher quality than many of the (MUCH) more expensive presses. I recommend this to literally everyone I know whos interested in owning their own press. The reason I knocked a star off for ease of use is; while theyve clearly made a real effort to explain the finer details of pressing on this machine, I still have absolutely no idea how to calculate the force I need to press without a prepress based on the PSI gauge. I think a video where they go into detail about how the gauge factors in to the equation, and press a bumch of different sizes, shapes, bottletech, and standard pressing while explaining the range each amount should show on the gauge would completely resolve this issue. Overall, I still think this is the best personal press for the money. I just wish they would do something to make the learning curve a bit less steep. Also, the instructions could use an update. Regardless, buy this press. Its the best value for the money, and if you already know how to translate the gauge PSI to bag PSI (or are using a prepress, , youre golden, they explain that very well in their articles).

> 3 dayPlugged everything in and turned it on, product began smoking. Heating element ran up super hot, something wrong with heat box. Sending back as a return, but quality did look nice. Ill update once dabpress responds. Update = 3 stars so far, customer service was good. Will update when everything is resolved. Update = Received my replacement. Awesome press, first one was a fluke. Set up was easy and use is very easy. Good returns!
