Super easy to set up came with everything I could need and some! However the blade that it comes with is a little dull and needs a pretty heavy hand to cut anything with and it isn't clear where it will be cutting so sometimes I cut a little to close. Oh Well it does what it says and so far I have had no other problems!

Works as it should and was very good at the task
Works great, didn’t use it straight away but when it was needed it was up to the task. I have had no issues with laminating and using the cutter for trimming amd cutting adverts into shape. Didn’t take long ti heat up for the laminating side
Ultra silencieuse !
La plastifieuse est de bonnes finition. Produit ultra silencieux. Les accessoires fournis sont de bonnes qualits galement. Seul bmol l outil de dcoupe intgr, il faut appuyer trs fort pour la dcoupe d’une seul feuille papier (non plastifi !) sinon c’est un bon produit.
It Laminates, It Cuts, It works as i would expect it too.
This (what i thought was very reasonably priced) laminator heats up quickly, outputs a nice flat bubble kink free sheet, that is easy to wipe clean, after using dry erase markers etc. Comes with some pretty good extras, like the included 3 mode cutter head, and found the perforating one makes the laminate fold nicely, But not sure how long this little blade would last especially on what is effectively a hard plastic (Depending on the Micron/thickness of the pouches) and have not yet found where you can buy a replacement for it, perhaps it is meant to be used to cut the paper pre-laminating, but cut my laminated sheets fine 250micron with a sheet of 100gsm A4 in it. The corner cutter is a nice addition, to trim those sharp corners, and stores neatly underneath. But for someone like me who only laminates a few pages a month, can see this lasting me quite a while.
Strongly recommended
I bought this recently and I am very happy with it. It works perfectly and it is just what I wanted. Strongly recommended!! Plus it comes with craft ideas
Great except the cutte
The only thing I don’t like about this unit is the sliding cutting on top is not easy to use and does t really work. The instructions say to press down hard while sliding but then it’s hard to move along the rail. Tried making a few cuts and none were completely successful.
Other than that, it laminates great! Also comes with some extras for crafty things like small paper frames, twine, colourful clothes pins and a hole punch. Nice touch!
...as opposed to my old 9 inch wide one that I've had for about 15 years. This one is great, no more curled edges or jammed laminations because I didn't feed it absolutely straight. I purposely put an 8.5 x 11 job in crooked (almost diagonally), and it still worked flawlessly. The corner-rounder was useless for me, it cut but not completely through, so even if I got the corner off it was left ragged. The trimmer built in to the top worked as expected. This machine was definitely worth the little extra money it cost.

Excelente Artirulo
Lo he comprado y no me arrepiento, funciona de manera excelente, lo volveria a comprar sin pensarlo
Great laminator for school projects and office
First time buying a laminator and I ‘m very impressed with this little machine. Once it was heated up, my cards got laminated pretty quickly and they look fantastic!
This machine has the ability to do larger sheets, like 11×17 too.
My business needs a lots of lamination, so that will be very useful for me. It’s very compact so I can put it away when not in use. Haven’t use the perforated cutters yet but I’ll try later .
So far I’m very happy with my purchase.
This laminator is perfect for our small school. We appreciate that the small gadget to cut the corner is hidden on the bottom and you can cut the paper directly on top of the laminator. All you need in one spot! Also, it's nice that's its wider than most of the laminator for the same price.

Je ne laisse que rarement des avis. Mais l, grosse surprise.
Bon du la livraison, la bote tait ouverte et dchir. J’avais peur pour la machine. Mais apparemment rien ne manquait.
Surprise de voir les petits accessoires comme les porte photo a plastifier. Super ide j’adore. Puis la pince, etc…
Mais grosse surprise qui m’a ravie. La massicot. Je l’ai prise pour a. Faisant l’cole la maison c’est ultra pratique. Mais l, ho merveille, j’ai en plus 3 options de coupe. C’est juste gnial. Coupe normale, coupe en vague ( trop cool pour les arts plastiques, c’est jolie) et ma favorite coupe en pointill. C’est juste parfait. Je peux prparer et pre dcouper tout mes ateliers et exercices a l’ avance sans que ce soit en morceaux. On a plus qu’ dtach au fur et a mesure. Juste top.
La plastifieuse fonctionne trs bien. Juste faut comprendre qu’il faut attendre bien la chauffe mais sinon parfait. Vraiment trs satisfaite de cet achat.
Excellent rapport qualit prix
Super easy to setup and use. My wife really enjoys it as well can use it for work or for home projects

Best Laminator for your Money
Absolutely delighted with this laminator. Easy to set up and use. Quick warm up time as well
The addition of the paper cutter is more handy than I had imagined. A generous supply of laminator sheets is provided along with sheets for laminating photos. Don’t think you could go wrong with this purchase, a great value.
I really like this laminator. Laminated thick cardstock and it turned out well. Comes with all you need and extra! Worth the price!

It's easy to use. Straightforward directions. I bought this device because I have many important documents that I want to protect from old age and the possibility of water damage. I use hearing aids, and I used it to protect reminders to remove them when I do outside work, sweat. I also made one reminder to remove them when I take a shower. Also, I made some signs I placed outdoors. One was an alert that my fence is locked.

Best $$ spent!
I’ve been debating a purchase of laminating machine for a while. Since “Covid” closures I found it difficult to simply go to Staples to have my items laminated.
So.. I am 100% sure this one is the best, reasonably priced machine out there!
I average 25-30 documents a month and this machine works like a charm.
Easy to use, sturdy, no issues at all! I feel like I’ve been wasting $ for years paying a business to do this for me! Best investment I’ve made in a while.
It was nice having the little "extras" inside to go with the machine. Works great for my classroom needs.

I really like this product and probably will buy a second one because I may wear this one out between hoe and office use.

I bought this to use for both work and kids projects. It heats up well, quiet rollers and has no problems with feeding documents. I recommend for small projects!

This is the kind of laminator I was looking for my home office...I home school my grandson who is under the Spectrum and this laminator saves me money and a trip to Staples office. It's elegant and an amazing tool, very easy to use. One recommendation to buyers- always be gently when laminating- do not force in the lamination sheets because it will roll-in and it will jam. LOVE MY NEW TOY 😃

This laminator is so easy to use, plus in, turn on and green light means go.....ready to laminate. The best feature is it has a built in cutting head so you can trim laminated projects.

This is a very nice laminator it works well. I got it today, 7/10/2021, via Amazon. However, the box did not contain the hole punch and I did look for it too. The rings, string and cloths pins were there but no hole punch !!!! This company needs to have better QC people to check out the packing of these orders. Good machine but. missing to many thing in their packing !!!!!!! I do hope they get this issue fixed very soon. J. Payne, Charlotte, NC. P.S. One thing This company needs to do on the plastic is to put," This is the cutting line with arrows pointing to it". Because I did not know where it was, I cut one third of my card clean off !!!!! PLEASE, point out the cutting line please !!!!!

This laminator is super easy to use and works well. It comes with plenty of laminating sheets to start with and a few other accessories including a hole punch. Started working on some summer camp workbooks and got them knocked out quickly.

This was a great buy for me. The basics are so simple to operate (plug in, turn on, flip to "hot" , wait for ready, prep your lamination project and go). Of course, read the tips and detail in the instructions, but basically saying it is so simple to use. The only fault I found is the little red button that you had to lift upwards to adjust the cutting tool selection (straight, perforated...) was difficult to move. I had to use a toothpick and work it up as my nails were not strong enough. Finally got it moving, but was a rough start.

LOVE the laminator - the cutter? Not so much
I can’t begin to tell you how much I’ve used this in this crazy pandemic/virtual school year we’ve had!!! For a while, I was LITERALLY laminating something EVERY DAY. We had a small problem early on when the kids tried to put small things through (didn’t understand the concept of trimming it AFTER laminating) and something got stuck on the roller but we were able to get that off after a bit of work. I like have the little corner trimmer as well!
The cutter worked well for the first few weeks, but then it stopped working. I’ll admit that the kids may have misused it, but the blade doesn’t go through all the paper (even just cutting a single piece of paper without lamination). Tried everything I could to make it work again, but to no avail.
I love this product. It was way lighter than i expected It didnt take to long to heat up. It also came with an round edge cutter such an convience. It was easy to use.

Works so great. But does not work on my mini picture. Washes out the colors but with everything else is great.
The 5 minute warm up wait time is accurate.
However the cutter is way difficult to use needs alot of pressure.
But the the corner cutter is amazing.
So glad I got this
is everything that I was looking for. very happy with this purchase.

so i use this for laminating all sorts of things including paper charts and so forth. bought a scotch 3M model with some pouches. First time I use the scotch one it jams and starts smoking the plastic Chinese gears start making noise. So I returned it and got this one. Worked first time and every time like a champ. Name brands used to mean something but really not so much anymore. This one works fine and uses the 3M media.

I have had several laminators in the last couple of years that are good for personal, light usage. But being away from campus frequently this year, I’ve needed something heavier duty since I’m using it so much. This is very heavy duty, it’s like the workhorse of laminators. It does not take long to heat up and sucks in the lamination straight and smoothly. Everything has been staying sealed nicely, even items with frequent, daily use. This laminator also has an expert trimming system on the top that is easy to use and which makes clean straight cuts. Very convenient! It also came with full size and card size laminating sheets to get you started.
This light weight laminator is easy to use. It laminates hot and cold. It comes with an attached guillotine cutter and an edge trimer to curve sharp edges. Laminator sheets are included. Everything you need to start laminating when you open the box at a very reasonable price. I used it to laminate the tissue paper Waldorf stars that I make for Christmas. The tissue paper stars stay clean and dry so I can save them to use again next Christmas.

My old laminator stopped heating up, so I got this one, that has lots of extras. The cutting is awesome, three different kinds of blades and plenty of guides makes this real nice to use. Laminates large and small perfectly without bubbling. The included laminating sheets need to be trimmed for thick paper, however, normal sized paper works the best and looks great. Nice that it has a hot and cold, where I never used cold, however, I do use the hot and it works the best for me. The machine heats up fast, smells a little the first few times, and then the odor goes away. I guess it has to burn the newness out of it. The surprise was the little puck that slips into the back of the machine, it cuts those sharp corners and rounds them off perfectly where that is a very cool little tool that will come in real handy. No cons, it works great, where I am very happy with the purchase.
I bought this laminator to replace a very expensive one that I wore out. It will do the job in my home office. It’s worth the money.

It's a good laminator. I have trouble making straight cuts even with using the guides and being as careful as I can. Possibly user error.

My wife loves this! She really likes the corner clipper and the three different edges to trim with!! Easy to use. Great straightedge. The item arrived on time, as advertised. She says I made the perfect choice!! It was a surprise for her to help work on the crafts she sends to the children she sponsors in Haiti.

Love most everything about this laminator. It deserves a 5 star. The only thing that I wish it had was a jam feeder feature in case it gets jammed. My daughter fed a pouch the wrong way in and we had to take it apart to get it out. The last laminator we owned had a jam feeder feature and was very convenient. For some reason I thought they all do and didn't look for that feature when shopping for a new one. Otherwise, I really love it.

Good product for the price! Best time to buy this item is during BTS and black friday sales. This year the black friday sales came early because of Covid-19, so I got this since I need it for school related stuff for my little one. This machine has made it little easier now that school is online and need to reuse some worksheets to review. We are definitely recycling paper this way 😁.

I have laminated over 500 sheets, and have cut even more. My only gripe is I need a replacement blade for the cutter.

This laminator has it all! Not only does it feel heavy and quality looks good, it has a trimmer on top with built in ruler as well as on the bottom a super cute corner cutter which is definitely very handy tool! I don’t have to buy three different tools anymore because this laminator seriously is 3-in-1 package deal. Comes with three different options on trimming as well! Geez. I’m super loving this tool and happy I bought it! Would work so well in laminating my work papers and business cards!
We love this laminator! The box arrived a bit smashed in places but the machine works perfectly! There are plenty of plastic sleeves (the manual calls them “foils”) in large and small sizes. You can laminate on cold (only the parts where plastic touches plastic is connected), or warm (the plastic is adhered to the paper as well as to the plastic). I made custom discussion cards (like playing cards) with warm lamination and I cut them out. The lamination plastic sticks to the paper of the card. I also laminated a full sheet of paper and the lamination plastic sticks to the plastic on the edges. (please excuse the extra blue lines– my printer is on the fritz). We really like this laminator and are sure to use it often, especially this fall as my kids will be home instead of at school. I also like that there is a paper cutter and corner-rounder included!
Pros: Surface is warm to touch (safe!). Auto feeder. Starter kit.
Cons: Trimmer needs some practice.
Continuing to work from home and doing lessons at home we decided to get a laminator to help preserve some of work our child has done.
This is our first laminator and it was pretty straightforward to use. I like that it came with a start kit and we immediately did one of his recent work. It has a built in motor so you just put it your paper into the laminator and it auto feeds like a scanner. Easy!
Once it came out from the other end we proceeded with the trimmer. The trimmer was a bit odd to use but after a few cuts we got it. I wish there was a better way to indicate where the cut actually happens as we cut too deep the first time around.
It has a edge trimmer on the bottom that you pull out and you just place your corner and press on it like a hole puncher. Awesome addon.
One safety thing I like to mention was that the top of the laminator was warm to touch as my kid pointed out. A bit worrisome the first time because he just touched it. Whew. I’m not sure about the sides but please keep an eye out.
Overall, we are pleased with it and will continue to use it for his accomplished work.
I bought this laminator because I started home schooling my 4 year old, and I wanted to save on my paper. So after researcher I found this one. I think it’s perfect for what I use it for. Heats up in a an appropriate amount of time. And laminates very smoothly with no air bubbles, I use 3 mil sheets. To be honest, I have not used the slicer because I have FISCAR brand that I use religiously. And the edge cutter is not so good, doesn’t cut all the way through. But it’s ok, I really wanted the laminator only.
I uses this laminator for my 8x10 photographs that I use for my paintings. It is better than original photos, whichI I can see more clear and vivid color.

This is a recent purchase and am reviewing after only one use. I am extremely happy with the quality of this compact laminator so far. It has a hot and cold lamination option. The cold lamination uses pressure instead of heat. The product comes with hot lamination film included. I tried the cold lamination process with the included film and it did not work, so I just sent it back through on the hot setting and it sealed just fine. I will have to purchase the cold type of film separately. It has a nice cutting board feature and cutting accessories. Would recommend based on my experience.

Being an elementary-school teacher it is often I have small projects that I need to laminate. Rather than using the big laminator at school, I prefer to use my own laminator. The laminator I have had for the past 20 years gave up on me a few weeks back. Using an Amazon gift card from a student’s family, I purchased this. It is fabulous. Super easy to use and the quality is outstanding.
Laminator works well
This laminating machine is an enormous bonus to our home office and family work.
This is a laminator that is very handy to have around.
I tried it at home for a couple of items first.
Good results on an picture of a family.
It is really user friendly.
I have earned a full seal which is very significant.
This tool is very lightweight and even in small spaces it can be used and does not require a lot of hook up. Just a plug in.
I would certainly recommend this fine product to anyone looking for a high quality, cheap, laminating machine.
Great Laminato
I’ve put this machine to good use from the minute I got it. The cutting board on the top is easy to use and I especially love the circular cutter for the corners.
It doesn’t take long for it to warm up and start using.
This laminator was exactly what I was looking for to use for my work! This is easy to use, does not clump, and finishes with a clean laminate. I’m still trying to figure out how to use some of the extra things, but love the laminator!!!

The only things we had trouble with was that the 9 volt battery was dead and kept making the leveler turn off so we thought it was defective but we found a new 9 volt battery and it worked.

I would give this product a 4.5/5 Stars, it is easy to use, need to turn the machine on wait 5 minutes and the laminator will get hot. I have not tried the cold laminating, but you do have to wait 30 minutes for the laminator to get cold and the laminating sheets that come with this product can not be used for the cold setting. Cold laminating is used to laminate thermal paper such as receipts. The package comes with A4 Laminating Sheets and A6 Laminating Sheets (Small Laminating sheets) for photo lamination. You do have to buy A3 Laminating sheets separately. The cutter is great to cut laminated photos but if you want to cut paper is not great, there isn’t any smoothness, it comes out crooked for the paper. There is a cutter to cut out corners, so there will not be sharp edges of the laminated sheet it is located at the bottom of the laminator.
I am so impressed by this laminator so far! I just had it delivered today and used it right away. I’m impressed with its size, its weight, and it laminates well.
I like how closely the laminator gets to the piece that it’s laminating, as the picture shows.
I used scissors as reference for its size.
Our office does not do a lot of laminating, but this works well even up to 11 x 17 paper. We have tried several different brands of laminator sheets and have had good results from all we have used. When we are not using the laminator it stores very easily in a compact space. We are very pleased with this purchase.

It works really well. I had trouble with the cutter because I can't seem to be able to tell where the blade is going to cut. I am sure when I get used to it I will really like i

This is a really nice laminator with all the bells and whistles, however, it takes 1 minute 15 seconds to run through one laminating sheet which is a bit long. If you are in need of laminating a lot of things, I would maybe step up to a better quality for times sake. I’m a teacher and I laminate all the time, but for the price and the quality otherwise, it will do just fine and I would recommend. Also, the FREE laminating sheets that come with the machine do not cover an 8.5 x 11″ page width wise. They are right at 8.5″ wide with no room for leftover for cutting purposes. I always purchase the Amazon brand laminating sheets in boxes of 100. The length is just shy of 12″ so it’s good length wise, but not width wise. It came with 10 – 4 x 6 sheets as well. It’s very, very quiet and has a cutter attached a corner rounder attached to the back of the machine.
Thus far, this laminator is awesome! I have only used 3mm laminating sheets, as suggested. It works perfectly and warns up quickly. The only thing that worried me in the beginning was the green light, (to tell you when it's ready), is very dim, could just be my lights in the house. I couldn't tell that it was ready until I put my hand over it and looked really closely. Other than that, it's awesome

I love this laminator!! I’ve always wanted one for some reason and didn’t really know what I was going to do with it… Until I finally decided to purchase one! I use it for all kinds of things…laminating coloring pages for kids so that they can reuse them with erasable markers, laminating recipe so that they don’t get ruined… And many other uses!! Its easy to use and easy to store, so glad I bought it… definitely recommend!!
All the warnings in the instructions make it seem a little more complicated than it is. But they are worth taking a quick look to get started.
You can pretty much plug this in and start using it. The start up guide is helpful and useful as a point of reference.
It only take a few moments to warm up. You can get your photos ready while you wait.
My first attempt had a bubble right next to the photo. Not sure why that happened, but the subsequent ones turned out fine.
I had a difficult time using the built in edge trimmer. I would run it along and it just wouldn’t catch.
The removable corner cutter is a nice addition. Gives the the laminated photos/ docs a more finished look and of course makes it nice and smooth.
So easy to use. Directions were easy to follow and works really well. It’s nice to have something at home to laminate tags and things I want to keep.
Really nice machine. The trimmer and corner cutter make a difference for me. Really easy to use with good results. Out of box to completed items within 5 minutes. Love the 3 options for cutting, straight, wave and perforation. Easily looks professional. Love it!!
This laminator machine is magic!, It’s useful for me, the machine size is nice, the design is modern and simplistic.It does a nice job and can handle anything when I use it. This laminator is Super fast, ready to laminate in a minute, works with off lamination pockets, and runs items through quickly.meanwhile to prodect our imprtant documents, such as cards and photos, nicely for home, office and school use.
This is a great product, Love them!
Easy to laminate, though the cutter tool is a little unclear on exactly where it cuts.
The guides on the top help align the sleeve as it moves through the slot on the front. The seal is great and the included lamination sleeves make for a nice, stiff laminated object.
The picture I used was crinkled and the lamination hugged those crinkles. This is not the fault of the laminator, but the picture is sentimental, so I wanted to protect it from any additional damage.
My six year old kid loves to doodle characters and then use box tape to protect them. Now, we have a much better way of protecting them.
Fair warning, as the machine heats up, there’s a bit of a smell of burnt plastic. My wife manages a store that offers lamination and this smell is normal.
Setup and Usage
The instructions were much better than many products I have purchased lately. These give useable instructions on setup, usage and even maintenance.
After plugging in the device, and warm up, the product was ready to be used.
Merely by inserting the target into the sleeve, inserting the sleeve into the pickup roller, it took a few seconds and delivered my first laminated item.
Having used a laminator only at work, this was surprisingly quick and had a good setup. A quick check on Amazon showed plenty of options for 3mm sleeve refills. The only issue during this set up is that the cutter took some time to get used to, but it was a learning process on my part; not a failure on the part of the device. Another item of concern is that the cutting head MAY need to be replaced after a period of wear. I did not find a price on that item at this time.
It’s worth the price. My first laminator comes with the trimmer and conner trimmer. And also my first laminator with Hot and Cold options. It’s very cool and useful for the home and office use. I bought it for my office room and love it. Comes with 20 free pouches, so it saves me like 10 bucks from buying the pouches. Well packaged and it looks well-made. Price is a little higher than the others,but I think it’s worth it.
So when I purchased this item I originally bought it for the mere purpose of laminating. I didn’t realize it had a cutter included on it, so it eliminates the need for a paper cutter. It has three settings on it which is really nice when you’re making cards or cut outs you can add texture by picking one of the other settings. My daughter is young and this is a great tool for me to have to help her with doing different arts and crafts. I see myself using this often and it’s been a week and I’ve already been using it a lot.
Laminato
It does the job! What more is there to say. Super nice of them to include some laminator sheets in the box becaause I forgot to buy some. Also super nice it includes a quillotine/style cutting board so I get a two in one. Nice machine!
9/10 – Does its job and does it well. No problems yet. Pictures coming soon.
I was looking for a laminator that could do 11X17 size prints, and this looked like a winner. The reviews and the extra features like the sliding cutter and the corner cutter were solid enough, and I’m happy that I had purchased it. I’ve used it liberally for a month straight on laminating artwork for my office wall, and it has worked perfectly every time. The corner cutter has proven useful too for my smaller wallet items. A+++!
This is a great addition to any home office or crafting space!
We immediately got it out of the box, read instructions, and set it up to laminate a few random items around the house that we’ve been meaning to preserve (bread & pizza dough recipe card referenced at least weekly, and the instructions to our pancake & waffle mix that we buy in bulk!) They both fit in the smaller pre-included laminator envelopes… and made their way through the machine with minimal issues! The thicker card stock of the waffle instructions came out with some air bubbles… I’m not convinced it couldn’t have been resolved with more care or experience, but without explicit instructions in this regard, this is why I knocked the rating down a simple notch!
with the pre-made slips I haven’t had the need to test our the corner rounder, but the mere existence of the option is vital to me… especially with daily used items, great for keeping fingers from ruthless lamination cuts!
Wanted a home office laminator to get my certificates laminated. This was the right choice for my small office. Comes with around 20 laminator pouches(large-A4 & small(4×6)) which is great. I have been using it for a while and work like a charm. Heats up pretty quickly and the rollers in the machine work automatically(see video). I like this model because it has those 3 different roller razor edges which is a cool feature to crop your pictures before lamination.
Pros
The pictures come out really clean without any crease
Fits almost anywhere within the office area
Heats up pretty quickly around 3 mins
Lightweight
No more scissors
Con
The surface is really hot after the machine is switched no for more than 45 mins which is not necessary.
Note: Make sure when you switch to cold lamination give it a 5 mins cool down time if a hot lamination is done earlier. (see pics for side buttons)
I would give it a 5 stars because it does all the work for me without me reaching out for any other tool for my work!! A pretty good buy.
I love this laminator there are so many things I can do I started out just laminating a recipe to preserve it and to get a feel for the machine , but will be making homemade coasters with family photos to save memories I can’t wait to try the many many more ideas I have in store for this laminator. Great product highly recommend it and would purchase it agai
I needed a laminator for my home office addition since my previous one broke diown after minimal use. This one came with all the features such as an edger, cutter, and already had various laminating paper sizes included. It was very straight forward out the box.
1. Turn on
2. Set to heat (takes around 90s)
3. Insert what you need laminated in paper
4. Place in laminator (sealed edge first)
The construction is very sturdy and appears to be of good quality. Would recommend!!
Very nice product. Quick to heat up and as a new user, I found the ready light useful. The extras; cutter and edge rounder, are a nice additional feature to have and easy to use. It also comes with a package of thermal laminating pouches in various sizes which is great so you have an idea of what type of pouches to look for when you need to restock. Overall, I am pleased with the purchase.
****UPDATE: I was able to contact the company. They have offered to send one to replace the broken laminator. I am super surprised and very thankful for the help! Thank you for working with me!
I was super excited to get this as a Christmas present from my mother in law. I have returned to teaching after a little break, and needed a laminator to help me get materials together for my classes. I used it for the first time last week on Wednesday. Last night, the rollers stopped turning. I don’t know if I used it too much, or it was just a faulty machine. I turned it off and let it rest, but the rollers refuse to roll. This product had so many awesome reviews that I didn’t get the protection plan. Guess it’s time to purchase another.
it was very nice laminators machine . After a lot searching , I decided to buy it . That was good choice. And very easy to handle. I use it protect menu for my small restaurant. And works. So I will recommend it .
I was impressed with this laminator. Once it was heated up, the pieces laminated pretty quickly and came out cool enough to pick up. I also really liked the ability with this unit to do larger sheets, like 11×17. Having a new business, that will be very useful for me. The compactness is great, allowing me to put it away when not in use. I didn’t think I would use the wavy or perforated cutters, but after seeing it in action, I can use it for tickets or RSVP cards. The corner rounder is limited, very small and only does one sheet at a time, but it does its job and saves you from those pointy corners, and looks pretty too.

This is such a neat product! I love how convenient everything is. I have a cutter, and rounded edger and a laminator all in one. This set comes with multiple laminated paper in various sizes and the instructions were clear and concise. The perfect crafters’ gift this holiday season.
Home office and needed a laminator. Price was right so I purchased this. Directions needs to be a little clearer but I figured it out pretty quickly. Green light took a good 5 minutes and my license came out great. Uploaded a quick video.
This is by far the best laminator I’ve ever had! It’s a little slow; and smells funny but all laminators do. It has the coolest paper edge clipper in the back (not in my video) that I love! And it’s super simple to figure out, i do wish it came with more instructions for those that have never had a laminator but since I have it was easy to figure out overall good quality I was very impressed and I’m exited to start using it for my new business!
