Have an opportunity to buy a 15x15 Hix press, but know nothing about them. Has anyone had any experience with them?

Thanks all,

Hix is good. My last one lasted just over 20 years.

I bought a HIX 13x13" shirt press and a cap press on Ebay a few years ago. Both work great. I just wish that I had gone with the bigger press though.

I second everything said - our Hix press is over twenty five years old and still going strong!

BUYER BEWARE!- THEY DO GET HOT! [Big Grin] (oh, yeah, they are supposed to!) You can't go wrong with a Hix.
I bought my first USED one in 1985, and another USED one about 2 years ago.

Both machines are still going strong- I did have an electrician put a new cord on the old one last year. (Over 20 years of hard use is tough on electrical cords)

My old one has logged a lot of miles, at times working 10 hours a day, seven days a week for several months at a time. I don't think I could ever part with it or my first airbrush.
