Hi,
Can I ask some advice please? I'm currently saving like crazy to buy a hot foil press. The 2 that interest me most are KSF Mini from Metallic Elephant and Dream Factory Hot Foil Machine (with clicker option). I'd like to be able to take with me to pop up events down the line.
Has anyone bought the Dream Factory Hot Foil machine? I have seen lots of people talking about the Dream Factory Press but none of the reviews are as detailed as Philips review on the KSF Mini by Metallic Elephant which looked great.
It's quite a substantial spend/investment for me so I don't want to make the decision lightly and later wish I'd gone for the other. I'd be grateful for any any advice/recommendations.
Thanks,
Kelly
Hey Kelly,
I own neither to be honest. I recently purchased a used Kinglsye machine that I am rebuilding from scratch basically. But that's neither here nor there.
All i can tell you is the few people I know who own a DremFactory machine are not in love with it. For various reasons. Also, a machine that doubles as a HotFoil + Press should in theory be not that good:
Either it gives too much pressing power and it will give a bad stamp, or it has little power and will be a nightmare to use as a press.
