The new HTVront Auto Tumbler Press is is an automated cylindrical heat press that claims to work with a variety of tumblers, mugs, and cups made from stainless steel, ceramic, and glass. This Auto Tumbler Press reminds me of the Cricut Mug Press, but with a much longer chamber so you can press a broader range of things -- you can go up to 9 inches long and from 2.9 inches in diameter to just about 3.35 inches, and from 10 oz. to 30 oz. containers. Unlike the Cricut Mug Press, however, it does not automatically calculate the temperature and time for you -- so it's not as automated, but it does claims to be able to apply the right amount of pressure based on the diameter of your project. In this video, I unbox and set it up LIVE so we can see how easy it is to set up and then playtest it with some stainless steel tumblers, ceramic mugs, and glass cans.
Range: 210-390°F and 1-600 seconds
Size: 13x13x6.3
Weight: 9.5 lb.
Quick Start:
1. Power On
2. Set the proper time and temperature -- default is 210°F and 20 seconds.
3. Insert your project with the design and butcher paper on it.

Stainless Steel Tumbler - 380°F at 120-240s
Ceramic Tumbler - 380°F at 360-480s (this was too high for my test)
Glass Tumbler - 380°F at 240-360s
Safety - The Auto Tumbler Press shuts down after 15 minutes of inactivity. - Розваги
You are the sweetest person ever! I absolutely love watching your videos. You are the source I will go to first, because your methods are tried and true; and your opinions are honest and unbiased. I love that you don't have paid sponsorships when evaluating products. I have found the most success with your videos. Thank you for all you do!
So helpful to see how the different tumblers come out, and to see the process! Thank you!
So many fun projects!
Awesome video. Cant wait to try more projects
Hi, Jennifer and team! The tumbler looks fantastic! I really wouldn't have noticed the 'white spot' if you hadn't pointed them out. I love the design. Thank you for showing us the press.
Great video. I don’t have a tumbler or mug press. I normally don’t watch anything about them. I really enjoyed watching. Thanks, Jennifer!
it is nice to see you demonstrate and review these products
So helpful, thank you. I was considering this but since 15oz mugs don't fit, your testing saved me!
I bought the tumbler heat press a few days ago and find it amazing! love it
I've just got this machine - I love your design. I watched your tutorial before my first use, so THANKYOU Jennifer. I can't wait to get started with this machine on my Glass Tumbler 💖
Have fun!
Thank you for this review. I have been contemplating purchasing one. I have the Cricut mug press so I am not worried about mugs. I have never tried to sublimate anything other than Cricut mugs in my mug press because I had heard people who tried tumblers or even other brands of mugs than Cricut brand had issues with the mug presses no longer working. Really appreciate all your tutorials and find them very informative.
Thank you for trying out new products. I trust your opinion and Greg's also!
I just purchased thee HTVRont Auto Press and was able to successfully sublimate a 15oz Mug (was a tight fit) using the Michael's Brand. Also used the Michaels Brand 12oz Mug without any fitting issues. The Cricut mugs are probably just too wide to use. Yes, Michaels make 10oz mugs to answer one of your user's questions.
Thank you
I have this auto tumbler press and have found putting the ends back in for 10-20 seconds each helps with getting a better image on the ends.
With this tumbler press, it is very important to note the diameter of all blanks. It can’t rule out all blanks, only those whose diameter exceeds the limitations of the press. Please keep in mind, all 15oz mugs are not made the same (or any blank for that matter). There are many brands and many dimensions. Just a thought 😊
Yes! Just like a size 3 from one store/designer is sized differently from a size 3 from another store/designer.
Ooo, what cute gloves you have.
Love the designs.
The designs are so cute!
I love that you take your time and go step by step. Thanks!!❤
My pleasure!
Jennifer, you are the best teacher, I just wanted to say a very BIG Thankyou for your videos, I am new to cricut and watch one of your video's everytime I am trying something new. Thanks again. 💜
You are so welcome🥰
Omg what a great heat press
I’m adding this to my Wishlist
Very excited to see this project tonight ❤
❤ 👋 👋 I just love the way Jennifer, Team, and everyone on the Channel help us to figure out what we did wrong and how to fux the problem.
Also we get to see a lot of new and exciting things.
Thank you so much for doing this video. This is the press I have been considering. It was enlightening to find that it can't do a oz mug. BUMMER! I sure wish it could go just a bit bigger.
I did not have this when you were live. You are showing me everything I wanted to make now that I have received mine. Thank you and Craig for all your help.
You are so welcome!
Im a newbie here I just want to say thank you for your kindness and knowledge of all this.
Thanks so much!
Tks for sharing. ❤️⚘️🙏🎄🎄
I loved this video. Want to learn more about doing sublimation tumblers and glass cans
I recently purchased the HTV tumbler press and I haven't opened it and I didn't know it would do a 15oz mug. Great video
I just got my HTVRont today and so happy to see this. I had really good luck with a tumbler and 12 oz. mug. The description on Amazon does state up to 15 oz. mug. Measurements of mugs are on the Cricut box. I love your videos. Thank You
Thank you so much. Wonderful review. Very, very informative.
Thanks for this video! I really learned a lot and found myself smiling while watching because you have such a sweet demeanor. 😊
Thank you so much!
Agreed!
thank you for the tutorial. i just purchased the auto tumbler; anxious to try it out.
Have fun!
I got this tumbler press and I absolutely LOVE it!! Only downer is the large cricut sublimation mugs are a snug fit.
Congratulations 🎊 to Kathleen
I always learn so much
Beautiful designs
I have - and love - the HTVRont regular autopress, this seems very similar. FWIW, the cooking guidelines in the regular press manual are worse than useless... I learned to just ignore them and use manufacturer recommendations. Or my Jennifer Maker Sublimation Cookbook of course 😂
Just love the way you guys "team up". Hubs and I do the same. ❤ it makes it so fun...really enjoy your vids and especially team ups!❤🎉😊😊
Hi Jennifer, thank you for introducing and testing out the new Htv press tumbler. I learned a lot. Loved how the glass can colors came out so bright. Have the same design and my colors are not that bright. Can’t wait to try your suggestions. God bless
I'm so glad!
Ty...I wasnt sure about this product but your vid convinced me my conv. oven and cricut press are perfect. Too many iffy variables and size issues and the temp gage was the same problem i had with their big press. It never made it to 400. Timed out. Refund
Ill stick with mine. Ty so much bc i was curious after my press snafu with them. ❤
I got mine weeks ago, for now I don't have much problem with it, it's convenient for me.
Hi, thank you so much for this video, which I watched earlier. I did want to add a few comments on what someone had asked about using the Cricut mug press to do tumblers. I ordered the PYD silicone inserts, and tried making my 20oz tumblers using them. I used the thickest one. I have to say they turned out beautifully. I did have to rotate, and then do the other half. After a run or two the timer stopped working but the heat worked fine, so I just used a timer. I was very very happy with the results. As I don't intend to do many, I did not have to invest in the PYD press which I had in my shopping cart. But if I want to do glass tumblers or cans, I guess I will have to invest in one of these. Too bad about the 15 oz mug, and I wonder about the 30 oz tumbler fitting since the larger mug did not fit.
Even though the bunny is burnt thats a really cool color for it ! And the 3d looks great
So many gadgets to use!
Jennifer, if you put a 15 oz mug with bottom first it will fit.
So awesome
Great video the tumbler are so very pretty! Thank you for this teaachimg video, your a great teacher thank you for teaching us! as always!! Hugs Liz x
Awesome review, thank you, Jennifer!🤩👏🏽👏🏽 I think it did well on the large tumbler, but I wish the seam of the press was a tighter fit with no visible gap. I really hope Cricut makes a tumbler size heat press now that they are starting to come out in the market. Maybe you should write to Cricut and let them know about your review and suggestions for a future tumbler press.🤷🏻♀️🙏🏽🙌🏽 Blessings.🕊🎄🥰🙋🏻♀️💜tfs
Thanks for this review I appreciate you.
I purchased that press. I was very disappointed in my results. I did return it for a replacement. I'll see if that helps. I, too, was not happy with the rims of my tumblers. I also had a difficult time determining time and temperature. Fingers crossed for the replacement. Thanks for your help.
Just ordered mine and my printer. Excited to get started.
Yay!
I just received mine. You make it seem so much easier.
Hope you like it!
Thank you for sharing i want to learn more about to make them i like how you give really good Instructions thank you again
You are so welcome!
I am glad you did this, I was looking to purchase this one. Too bad it doesn’t fit the 15oz. I use that size most often.
I just used mine for the first time & it worked GREAT
Yay!!!
I like the way it does all three. I have the mug press and a.15oz mug is tight. This would work better. Beautiful design!
Great job love them all
I used a 15 OZ hog mug it fit tightly.. i had a issue near the handle and not enough time used 360 sec will increases time on next cup
I also checked a 30 oz hog glitter and it fit . I haven't tried it yet .
Thanks Jennifer, I think I will stick with my oven.
Love your videos 🎉
Love that no flipping required ❤
i think that tumbler is beautiful the design
Yes I have seen it but haven't seen anyone try it out. I would love to save for it.
the glass is beautiful also
good demonstration
Thabk you for this honest video! I have to say tgat after watching, I think I am leaning toward an oven. Seems like that allows greater flexibility for about the same cost.
I'm glad you found it helpful!❤️
I have one myself and my tumblers and cups are over cooking....I'm trying to figure out the right temperature and time. Can't wait for the update.
I am having the same problem, over cooking and ghosting in the ends! Let us know if you figure out correct temps thanks!
It seems the top and bottom are often an issue. I looked up a 300z straight tumbler and they seem to be just over 3 inches so I’m skeptical. My PYD manual one is much more flexible since you can change the insert easily. Thank you so much for your effort.
Thanks for the review i just want to have one so you show me what it can do it will help me decide 😊
Glad I could help
It holds two mugs also
I used a wine tumbler and it worked great
Just watched this - as I just bought one of those tumbler presses - I wonder if using a shrink wrap would have helped the edges be tighter?
I think it looks really smart I think it's a lovely colour it seems to have some auto features that seem quite clever ultimately, though I think I would give that one a miss simply because of some of the difficulties with it.
I never researched it before I bought it and I am sad the 15 oz mug doesn’t fit so I still have to pull out my mug press. And my buttons do work by holding down yours might be defective
Thank you so much! This video helped so much on deciding on the purchase of this press. Few questions. Do you have a video on your use of the PYD Tumbler Press? How did you do your personalized seam on the tumble? Love your videos and Thank You for your wonderful videos!!
Thank you! You can request that here. This tutorial has a seam. jennifermaker.com/how-to-sublimate-tapered-tumblers/
I love your designs! I am very disappointed in the HTVront Auto Tumbler Press though. I like the bigger mugs and they will not fit. The time/temp setting seems too variable for me. I think the Cricut Mug Press is much better and I expect that Cricut will come out with other models as time goes on. This press also seems to be very expensive for what it is. It seems like a sublimation over would be much more versitile for a beginner. Love all you videos as always! Thank You.
Thank you for your content; Someone else said it does not go higher than 390.
Cricut Autopress can heat to 400°F (205°C). help.cricut.com/hc/en-us/articles/4542358884631-Cricut-Autopress-FAQ#:~:text=What%20is%20the%20max%20temperature,F%20(205°C).
I think it saves temps for up to 2 or 3 items I was told, but not sure😊
Wonderful demo! I'm not sure it would be worth it to have a specific machine just for a tumbler. Also a big concern would be the mechanics involved with the press closing and opening - that is just waiting to fail after so many uses. Manual closing or oven would be best.
Can you use parchment paper instead of butcher paper
Looks pretty great! Between cricket press or htvront which do you like better please? I think you answered my question already now that I’m watching the end of the video! Thank you
I love the simplicity of the Cricut mug press but it depends on what you want to make.
Yes u can do 30 oz I've done one can out nice!
It's really a great tumbler！Love this tumbler heat press and the color is so beautiful.
I'm glad you like it🥰
I didn’t rotate mine and I believe they can do up to 20 oz.
I have been interested in this. I heard that it causes ghosting. I wanted 24:38 to get one but was cautious so thank you so much for doing this video.❤ 25:03
You are so welcome!
Hi Jennifer, thanks for the brilliant lesson. Just a quick question, how long do you let the mug sits/ cool for after “cooking” before unwrapping it please. thanks
I wait until it is cool or just warm to the touch. When it is hot it is still in the sublimation process. Maybe 5 to 10 minutes. Sometimes longer when I walk away from it to do something else.
Thank you so much for your response, appreciate it 😊
You can hold the button to go up in time.
I just got your book and the HTV. I love it. Where can I get the sublimation prints you used? I love them.
My 20 oz came out perfect with 380 temps 1:21:21
240 sec no rotation
Awesome!
Wow that is good to know.
What's the smallest it will do, and will it do tapered cups
Good morning, Jennifer.
Will you consider doing a review on the Eenour automatic rotating tumbler heat press from Amazon?
We haven't looked into that brand yet. 😊🌻
@@JenniferMaker That tumbler press automatically turns the tumbler for you so you don't have to.
Love coffee also
My mug press has different size and shape options. It has interchangeable press cups
Will wait for Cricut to come out with something similar to do similar other than mugs.
I cant seem to find how to coat a regular glass , could you direct me where to look, thankyou
❤❤
Which do you like better between the sublimation oven and an air fryer?
I like to oven but I am more familiar with it.
I would love to have your sublimation images of the deer please
They'll be on the blog soon, keep an eye out. 😊🌻
did you try the htvront auto press ? wanted to hear your take on it i just bought one i trust you the most
no I have not but it seems that many are happy with it!🥰
