Missing parts on my review.

Looks sturdy, but no stick, grip, wrenches, position pins, or bolts in my delivery. Well packaged otherwise. That's my feedback.

Pros
  • Easy to operate, even for beginners
Cons
  • The machine breaks easily

Works great but wish it included different size buttons.

Love this! Easy to use and super sturdy and well made. The only thing I wish was that it came with different size buttons. The ones included are small and you have to buy all the extra parts to make anything g different.

Pros
  • Durable and sturdy construction ensures stable button creation
Cons
  • It’s difficult to get replacement parts for the machine

Faulty mold in my review

I got this product for my son for his birthday so he and his friends could make buttons at the party. The mold is faulty and the buttons do not wrap appropriately. Hopefully the mold can be replaced in a timely manner and I will update this review. Until then I wish I would've bought the more expensive one

Pros
  • Great for DIY enthusiasts and crafters alike
Cons
  • The parts are difficult to find

Disappointed for my opinion

I purchased this to use in my business however we have continuously had problems making buttons with the plastic covering. It works fine without the plastic. It's too late for it to be returned so I guess we're stuck with it.

Pros
  • Creates a professional finish that looks as good as store-bought buttons
Cons
  • The machine doesn’t have a safety feature

Works great - my new review

Works great. We made tons of buttons out of it. But remember it only does one size. And definitely get a circular punch! Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • Comes with clear and easy to follow instructions
Cons
  • The parts don’t fit together easily

Amazing and Easy to use!

Arrived on time, easy to put together, plenty of party’s to last awhile. Circle cutter included and super easy to use! The buttons are about the size of a quarter.

Pros
  • Good price. Exactly what I needed
Cons
  • The output isn’t consistent

Unreliable on my review.

Heavy and well-built, but I tried to make a half dozen buttons and zero of them worked. The front seems like it never even comes in contact with the pinback, so during the merging stage all you're doing is wrinkling up the button in a vice, but you end up with ruined artwork rather than a button. I will look for a different manufacturer and button type next time around. Returned for refund.

Pros
  • Makes it easy to create buttons in bulk
Cons
  • The machine wastes a lot of material

Putting together and alignment not good

Putting it together required extra tools to repair holes that did not work and started stripping screws. Using it, it is difficult to line up because it has a wobble to it and does not sit flush in base.

Pros
  • Saves time and money compared to ordering custom badges
Cons
  • The machine’s handle is not ergonomic

I recommend this seller and brand.

I have been using my Cricut Explore to craft and was interested in buttons. This machine arrived on time and was easy to learn how to use.

Pros
  • Can be used to create collector's items for fans of a particular brand or design
Cons
  • The button parts don’t stick to the graphic

Affordable price for a decent size

Wish it had a guide that would guarantee perfect pin alignment. I went through a few buttons trying to get a good alignment. Angling the hole at about 11 o’clock on a clock face worked for me.

Pros
  • The button machine was easy to assemble and easy to use. WE LOVE IT!!!
Cons
  • It’s difficult to align the graphics with the pin’s face

No plastic film received.

Seems well made and sturdy; however, the neglected to send me the film for the front of the button which I thought was included in the package. We have the backs and the metal fronts but no film. Bummer. My niece has to wait til they come in now til she can use her birthday present.

Pros
  • Great quality
Cons
  • The parts are too expensive to replace

My item arrived without the metal die cast and the sliding frame it sits on. I waited thinking maybe it would arrive separately but I never received it. And now I realized I can’t even return it. I feel cheated!

Pros
  • Easy to clean and maintain
Cons
  • The button parts are too thin

SO EASY! Worth the extra $$

I bought a cheaper version, it took me an hour to put it together and it never worked- returned it and paid $50 more for this guy. Easy instructions and installation- once I got the hang of it I whipped out 30 buttons in under an hour- design, print, cut and all. Highly recommend

Pros
  • Ideal for creating small batches of unique buttons
Cons
  • The machine requires too much force to operate

Great once you figure it out!

I read a lot of the reviews to finally figure out how to make this work - attaching a video for reference.Essentially, on the first press with aluminum, paper, and plastic, you don’t want the posts to line up with the holes on the press. On the second press, you do. Another tip, don’t double press the aluminum backers - if you got it wrong the first time, you’ve already changed the shape and it won’t give you a clean button on the second attempt (it will be an irregular circle, as seen in some…

Pros
  • Creates smooth, even, and polished button surfaces
Cons
  • The machine’s pin doesn’t hold well on fabric

Best purchase ever!

I love buttons and this machine is awesome. I'm so happy I bought it. Its works so smoothly and was and easy setup. You'll be making buttons 10 mins. Make sure you only use one plastic film so they don't come apart.

Pros
  • Buttons can be used as promotional materials for a business or event
Cons
  • The pins are too thin

Vote for this button maker!

Great button maker for what we needed it for. My daughter was running for Student Govt anc we made pins for kids to wear. Is this a professional button maker? No. Some of the buttons came apart and they sometimes don’t line up correctly. Is it worth the money? Absolutely! It still worked and did what we needed it to do!

Pros
  • Lightweight and easy to transport
Cons
  • The machine is too difficult to transport
