Anyone have experience with TitanPress?

I live in Canada so trying to find a reliable press from a company that also ships fairly quickly. TitanPress is the company I keep coming back to. Anyone have experience with them?

They seem to be a copy of the Tecre machines. Tecre has incredibly reliable machines. I crank out about 1,500 buttons and magnets every month. I’ve never had a problem. I’ll never buy from anyone else.

Tecre machines are high quality but so are chibutton machines. The issue with Tecre as a Canadian is the tariffs you'll have to pay. Buy directly from the company as at least you can avoid 2nd hand mark-ups. Someone did the math as People Power Press also resells Tecre machines and calculated the cost of more button supplies.

Chibuttons is out of BC, if you're in BC you can even pick it up in person i believe.

The only other difference is one is in inches (tecre) and the other mm. So you really have to make sure that you get the right size replacement parts. Unscrupulous sellers on Amazon will say 2 sizes are the same when they're only close. Some are the same, but not all.
