Jared Locke -

Amazon is currently offering the Cricut EasyPress Mini Heat Press for $39 shipped. Normally going for $49, this 20% discount marks a return to the second-best price we’ve tracked while coming within $4 of the all-time low. This heat press has been designed to work with Cricut’s Infusible Ink as well as traditional heat-transfer vinyl (HTV) to allow your crafting process to go much smoother and is paired with an auto-off feature to prevent accidents. There are three heat settings with a 100% coverage base to ensure even heating which in turn leads to more reliable operation. You’re not just limited to Circut’s Infusible Ink and HTV, but you can also work to apply iron-on patches and the such. Head below for more.

Cricut is well-known in the crafting world as a go-to brand for machines that can cut, draw, and score with ease. My wife even has the Maker, and it’s honestly a really cool tool. Well, one of the most recent introductions from the company is its Infusible Ink platform that allows you to permanently transfer patterns to items, like shirts, bags, and more.
