Which is better for a classroom or event batch?

The Caydo, because it includes 500 button sets and an adjustable circle cutter, so a group can cut and press without restocking. The VEVOR has fewer supplies and no cutter.

Which makes cleaner buttons?

Both aim at the same problem. The VEVOR uses alignment scales on the die and a shaped handle for steady pressure. The Caydo uses a revised structure to keep mold, artwork and parts lined up. Owner ratings for the Caydo are high.

Do they make the same button sizes?

Nearly. Both cover 25 mm and 32 mm, and the large size is 58 mm on both, listed as 2.28" on the VEVOR and 2.25" on the Caydo. Supplies are not interchangeable between the two machines.

Is the Caydo worth stepping up to over the VEVOR?

If you want supplies and finishing parts in one box, yes. The Caydo gives you more button sets, a cutter, and keychain, magnet and opener parts. Pick the VEVOR if alignment scales and the arc handle matter more to you.

Can they make keychains and magnets?

The Caydo includes keychain, magnet, bottle opener, ribbon and wobbler parts in the kit. The VEVOR lists those items as possible makes, but you supply the parts yourself.

Which is easier to store and set up?

The VEVOR needs no installation and weighs 11.6 lbs. The Caydo needs its molds swapped per size and comes with a large supply stock, so it takes more shelf space.

VEVOR 3-in-1 Button Maker vs Caydo 3-in-1 Button Maker Machine Kit

Both are manual 3-in-1 lever button makers that press 1", 1.25" and roughly 2.25" buttons, so the choice comes down to supplies and finishing parts. The Caydo kit ships with 500 button sets plus keychain, magnet, bottle opener, ribbon and wobbler parts and an adjustable circle cutter, which makes it the better starter kit for volume and variety. The VEVOR adds alignment scales on the die and an ergonomic arc handle, and its ABS body is light at 11.6 lbs, but it comes with fewer supplies and no cutter. Owners of both describe clean, consistent presses once the parts are lined up.

Choose the VEVOR if you want alignment scales and a shaped handle to help you find consistent pressure, and you plan to buy your own supplies and cutter.
Choose the Caydo if you want to start pressing right away with 500 button sets, extra keychain, magnet and bottle opener parts, and a circle cutter in the box.
