The heat press featured in this video is the H17 Phone Case Heat Press — designed for precise, professional sublimation results at home.

Pro tip: After printing your design onto sublimation film vinyl using a sublimation printer, place the film on the H17's lid. The gentle residual heat from the preheating press helps accelerate moisture evaporation, ensuring your design is perfectly dry and ready for a clean transfer.

This simple trick helps prevent smudging and gives you sharper, more vibrant results every time.
