Easy to use and produces excellent rosins would definitely recommend to any one looking to get into making there own extractsIt Worked but I need The Automatic one Its very hard to pumpI did my research and this press is in the top 5 everytime . I have hadn't issue s pressing my flower. It is a manual and can be hard to get enough pressure if your weak. But overall a good piece of equipment I would not call it beginner due to the instructions not giving you the ins and outs of the thing. I would recommend. Novice up. Have an idea of what you want to use it for then decide if a manual is what will work for you. I. Would have bought an automatic but to expensive. I'm pretty happy with this and got. A lot of live resin from it then used the left over for edibles. Enjoy the squish.I recently purchased the Dulytek DHP5. This is basically a plug and play product; connecting the two snap-in heater plugs and sticking the power cord into the machine and the wall. It took longer to unpack and remove all the tape and bubble wrap than it was in setting the machine up. I did have a question to about the product after I had received it, and had a customer response within an hour or so, which completely cleared up my query. This little machine is a workhorse! I have been pressing between 5 and 7 grams. Plates heat up pretty evenly speed-wise and once they hit their assigned temps they appear to maintain those temps well. The starter kit that came with the basic machine was nice, since I didn't have anything starting out. For what I got, I am very happy.Heat plates work nicely however the jack bleeds off and won't hold pressureThis is a great value press. It has plenty of pressure and heats up quickly. It's a bit on the small side, but that's a benefit for me personally as I don't have a lot of space. The reason for the 4 star rating is the plates were not oriented correctly out of the box. It was easy to fix with maybe 10 minutes and an allen wrench. This could have been due to damage while shipping because the box was pretty beaten up, but it's worth noting. Otherwise I couldn't be happier! Great product!What a very nice press well madeEverything seems to work good except the Jack will not hold have to continuously pump for Jack thinking about returning itFor be honest is a good press,the only thing is when i received it ,after 3 use the bottom plate stop working and the electrical pannel stop too,i try to exchange but the seller ship me what was broken,for the price isnt a big deal to repair your own thing and for that i give them 3 starSeller shipped to Canada via ups. Got charged outrageous brokerage charges by ups on top of the $99 shipping price. Any good seller should know ups doesn't play well at Canadian border. On top of that the upper plate wouldn't heat on arrival I had to fix it to get heat. Buy a dabpress brand save the headache and money.Compact, sturdy, very well built and great value! Easy to use.Utilisation maison
