I have a George Knight Combo, and it got me by when I was rebuilding after my fire.
Took a few minutes to switch top and bottom platens, but having both a shirt and hat press for the price of one got me back in the game. Presently, I only use it as a hat press since I have others for shirts and misc items. It works great as does my other Knight, a 6x8
"label" press.
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

Just wondering as I had some issues pressing a 3" decal on some sports bras, I think a hat or label press would have been much better. Thinking a combo press would be more flexible in pressing odd shaped or generally strange items.

A combo press is only as odd or strange as the platens attached at the time.

Hoping to hear good reviews of the cheap models as I rarely have the need for things like this.
