The Cricut EasyPress SE 9x9 Heat Press gives schools an easy way to make custom iron-on projects with consistent heat and a simple handheld design. Use it with Cricut iron-on, HTV, Infusible Ink, and compatible blanks to create school spirit shirts, staff apparel, tote bags, classroom gifts, club gear, and fundraiser items.
This 9" x 9" heat press is a practical size for many school projects. It is large enough for common shirt and tote bag designs, but compact enough to store in a classroom, library, makerspace, teacher workroom, or school office. The ceramic-coated heat plate helps distribute heat evenly across your design, while adjustable time and temperature controls let teachers set the press for the material being used.
Designed for Everyday School Projects
Cricut EasyPress SE works well for teachers, PTO/PTA groups, libraries, makerspaces, clubs, and school programs that want to personalize fabric projects without using a large commercial-style heat press. It is easy to move between spaces, simple to set up, and useful for both one-time classroom projects and small-batch school apparel.
Use it for:
- School spirit shirts
- Staff and teacher shirts
- Field trip shirts
- Club and team apparel
- Tote bags and library bags
- Fundraiser items
- Classroom gifts
- Makerspace and art room projects
Simple Time and Temperature Control
Set the heat and timer based on the iron-on, HTV, Infusible Ink, or blank you are using. The press gives teachers more control than a household iron and helps create better results for classroom apparel and fabric projects. Always follow Cricut’s recommended heat settings for your material and blank.
Compact 9" x 9" Pressing Area
The 9" x 9" size is a good fit for many common school projects, including youth shirts, smaller adult shirt designs, tote bags, sleeves, pockets, and smaller graphics. It is also easier to store than a larger press, making it a good option for shared classrooms and limited storage areas.
EasyPress SE vs. Cricut Autopress
Choose Cricut EasyPress SE if your school needs a portable heat press for occasional classroom projects, shared use, and smaller designs.
Choose Cricut Autopress if your school plans to make larger designs, frequent apparel projects, or higher quantities of spirit wear, club shirts, or fundraiser items.
EasyPress SE is a good choice for teachers and school groups that need flexibility and simple storage. Autopress is better for school stores, athletic programs, and higher-volume apparel production.
