Customer Reviews for VEVOR 58mm Button Maker 2.28 Button and Badge Maker Machine Button Maker Press Punch Press Machine with 500 Buttons(500pcs)

Absolutely love the simplicity and fun

This a good company this my second machine from them and I plan to do more business

Super easy to use. Definitely heavy, long lasting quality. I_ satisfied. The only thing that was weird is the circle cutter. There were no instructions and I_ lucky I didn_ accidentally cut myself! If you are going to make a lot of buttons, you will definitely have to buy a better circle cutter.

This button maker is awesome. It was a little confusing to figure out how to use at first but one I figured it out it was smooth sailing from there. I use this button maker a lot for local bands and it works great.

I like this machine and have had a good experience with it. However, it needed some maneuvering to make work. When I move between top and bottom press I have to make a slight recalculation manually on the press to make it work. So far the buttons are good quality and I am having very little trouble working it.

This item arrived scratched and missing a washer, and was frustrating to use at first. However, after some experimentation, it is working very well for me. Here are some things I've learned to make the process work:1. Yes, the circle cutter is flimsy and frustrating. However, cutting CLOCKWISE helps a lot. I was ready to just throw it away when cutting counterclockwise. After realizing this, I'm keeping it, but not treasuring it.2. From the top die assembly, there is a protruding metal bar, parallel with the table. To get the dies to register completely and well, this bar needs to swivel all the way to the left when using the left die, and all the way to the right when using the right die. (This was not mentioned in the instructions, and appears to be critical to getting the device to work.)3. Thicker papers (as compared with copy paper) seem to yield better results. I have been using quilting cotton as well.4. At first, I was pressing the die lever as hard as I could, with my full weight. Once I learned about swiveling the horizontal metal protruding piece (as mentioned above, item2), this was completely unnecessary. When all is working well, a gentle push on the lever is sufficient.5. (Not a tip, just a comment:) The plastic button backs have large holes that allow the pin part to move around. It can be difficult to get the pin to open and close without bending the metal a little bit.

It was easy to assemble and it works like a charm. The buttons it produces are sturdy and professional-looking, and have earned me lots of positive reviews from my customers. It also came faster than expected.

Ok but hole punch sucksssssss

I read a lot of the reviews that showed the mylar (plastic film) not being great but the only thing I found is that if you don't do the first part of the press right the first time you don't get a second chance which is why the mylar is reviewed as "bad." Some of the plastic backings had little defects like little bits sticking out but they were easy to cut off and smooth out. Overall this is an excellent machine if you're looking to make buttons quickly and easily. Would also suggest not just using straight printer paper but photo paper instead if you're looking for your pin to look it's best since you can definitely see the lack of glass in standard printer paper behind the mylar. Would buy again and am looking forward to buying plates in other sizes so I can make a wider range of pin sizes.
