choosing a chibuttons machine

can anyone recommend which one of these is best? the panda i believe is new and seems like a better deal but i worry about quality. the others i have seen good reviews for but im unsure which size would be better for my business.

Best (and cheap) button maker for plush pins!!

I’m currently in AP microeconomics for a project and my “business” is to make plush pins. I tried using a basic happizza pin maker and it did not go well. I’m using some foam from amazon and minky fabric as the coating. Please let me know a button making machine that can handle minky fabric, or if all of it is too expensive please recommend me a different fabric that I could use compatible with a cheaper machine. I’ve been looking at Vevor and Chibutton machines. I don’t necessarily have a price range, but $200+ might not be where I want to go.

Run down:
- I’m not using this permanently
- This is for a year long AP project
- Money is covered by me and my school
- 2.25 in (58mm) sized buttons preferred
- Using minky fabric cover (with easycolorDTV to attach a design on top)
- Using foam from amazon that I can easily shave down
