Cricut Easy Press Review – 10 Reasons We Love It
- Easy to read controls
The Cricut Easy Press has clear controls right on the top of the device. You can choose a temperature and timer setting and then just hit go to get started. - Multiple heat settings
Easily set the temperature with just the touch of a button. Every time of iron-on has it's own ideal temperture, the Easy Press has got you covered. And the indicator sound and clear temperature display will let you know when the device ready to use. - Easy to use timer
Set your timer for the optimal heating time. Once you're ready to iron on the material, just press go and the Easy Press does the rest. You can easily complete a full iron-on in under 60 seconds!
Easy to read controls on the Easy Press - Set and go heating
Set the temperature and timer and add a little pressure to heat set your material. No need to move the device around the fabric like a traditional iron, the Easy Press distributes even heat along it's entire base. If your design is larger than the Easy Press heating base, just move the device to cover a second area, set the timer and heat again. - Easy to Handle
The Easy press weighs a little more than a standard iron, but is easily managed with just one hand. Sometimes I love to use two hands when I'm working on a number of iron-on projects, but it's must lighter than a big t-shirt press.Easy Press is easy to handle with one hand - Base included
The whole unit includes a rubber, heat resistant base that the easy press sits in… hot or cold. The base helps keep your table or work surface protected while stored away nicely. - Ready to go out of the box

Make your own iron-on projects!
The Cricut Easy Press also comes with a table of glitter iron-on vinyl, a swatch of fabric so you can make your first project right out of the box. I created a simple word art design and ironed it on to a t-shirt tote bag as my first project.
You will need a Cricut Machine, Cricut Design Space and a Design to cut, Iron-on vinyl (I used pretty white glitter), something to iron the design to and the Easy Press. The project above is a simple t-shirt tote bag with word art I created in Design Space. You can use the same word art, go to the DS Canvas here.
Gotta love that pretty vinyl glitter iron-on! What will you make with YOUR Cricut Easy Press?
