You get what you pay for.

A 'real' press costs thousands.  Believe me, I know.  But it's not
just service you are paying for of course.
Be glad that you have the option of buying an inexpensive poorly made
piece of junk.  Fifteen years ago, before the third world became our
manufacturing plant, you either made your own press or bought one for
for several thousand.
