Fellowes - M5-95 Laminator - Black

In my opinion everyone home should have some laminator to protect those precious documents. A kids drawing, Flash cards, documents that need to stand the test of time. I was looking for a simple laminator to protect my German and Japanese flashcards because over time they would get dirty and I would have to remake them. Not anymore. It cost me $21.00 and I can now protect any document in my home besides my flash cards, and other peoples documents as well. Operation is simple, just turn the power button on, let the machine heat up and when its heated, send your documents through it, (Enclosed in the pouches that come with it or replacement pouches, which I have also ordered.) and catch on the other side. Presto! At this moment I am wondering what took me so long to get one? Oh yeah, about the laminator: it doesn't have a reverse button so if you get a snag you can't reverse the pouch out, there is a button that opens the slot so that you can retrieve the document should there be a jam. If there was a problem with my laminator I would go as soon as possible to get another.

This laminator may be good for just laminating but, not at all good for crafting such as applying foil to paper for card making. This machine has only one setting, so you can't adjust the settings to a hotter heat setting.

I needed a laminating machine to laminate a few photos to hang up on my wall. And this product worked great. Like everyone, i checked the reviews to see if it was worth buying and it is. The photos came out great with no bubbles or only a few. And the price makes it even better.

We use it almost daily. It does take awhile to warm up. It does seal just as good as the expensive ones out there.

As a pre school teacher I'm always creating math or phonics games in the classroom. Its worth to have. I can carry it back and forth and it turns off if not in use. It heats up quick.
