 Used it once before having to trash it December 27, 2006

I was excited about my purchase, seeing as I got it for a good deal from Staples. I tried it for the first time, to laminate my insurance card. I turned it on and had it warm up. Then I let the sleeve with the insurance card inside run through. Great I thought. Then it happened- the machine ran it back through the machine and the card disappeared. It had gotten wrapped around the rollars inside.
I unplugged it and had to wait for it to cool, then I took the outer covering apart, and removed some of the aluminum casing(what a pain), to get to the rollars, and saw my insurance card wrapped up in the rollars, virtually destroyed.
I then attempted to put the machine back together, and after two hours trying, I had to give up and throw the entire machine away.
That was my experience. If you buy this thing- don't let it run the card through a second time!!

This isn't the most expensive laminator out there, but that being said, I have laminated several things with this little machine. You must use a carrier with this machine, which it doesn't sound like the other reviewer did. One time I used it, the carrier became stuck. But, my husband was able to take the machine apart get it out and put it back together. I then proceeded to use it just fine. I believe my problem is that the carrier I purchased is too thick for the machine. I just found out that it takes a maximum 5 mil pouch/carrier size. I just used the carrier that came with the laminating pouches I bought. I made my own carrier by using inserting the laminating pouch between 2 pieces of card stock paper. This worked great, but the card stock was a little smaller than my pouches so I had to trim them. I will be purchasing the correct size carrier and laminating like crazy! This is a good little laminator for someone who laminates things occasionally. I wouldn't use in a commercial type setting. It probably wouldn't hold up to that type of use, but for me I love it! In fact, I just made my dad some photo bookmarks for Christmas! They look professional!

I have used this to laminate photos, ID cards, important papers, etc. I have never had any trouble with it. I think it's a great laminator, esp for the price.
