Ok I know at least one person on here rates them, so who else has experience of these?

Here is the situation, my shultze 40x50 (actually a smidge bigger but you get the idea) is lovely, but I now need to print 40x60, don't fancy a press which is only 40x60 as wiggle room is important and as we all know the very edges can be a bit off on temperature.

Now I am looking at the Pressmech Sub which has the preferred wiggle room.

How many users out there?
UK made... novelty!

Janners.

From what I've seen they're excellent presses. I was interested in them myself but could never get any response from the company

Very expensive, you're talking top price for these but (I believe) they are UK made and not just UK assembled but, as I've never got my hands on one I couldn't say for sure.

We love our A3+ models (bought another one a few months back), and would love to be able to upgrade to the new sublimation big size one. Apart from how they work, I love that they are easy to strip down and replace bits. The temp and time controllers are certainly Chinese parts, but the actual press doesn't resemble anything of the Chinese models on Alibaba. It does bare a resemblance to an old Adkins model I once saw on Ebay a while back. Spoke to the guy who makes them on the phone a few times, while he talked me through some troubleshooting with my multimeter, and whilst I stripped it down to replace the heating element. He knows the machines well, and could, from memory, work out the age of ours from me describing some of it's features.

It is the large sub model that is getting my attention.

The newer models look of the same design as the original A3 one, just bigger. If this is the case, and they're of the same quality, and ease of use (and servicing) is the same, then they'll be fantastic. We are tempted to trade our two A3 ones in to buy one of the new bigger ones.
Dickie is the name of the guy to speak to, if you can't hold of him on the number on the website, I have his mobile number, if you can't get hold of him PM me.
