GBCThermal Laminator Machine, Fusion 1000L, 9 Inch, 4 Min Warm-up, 3 or 5 Mil, with 10 EZUse Laminating Pouches for Home, Office and Classroom, Black (1703072)

This works very well and very easy. Heats up right away and hardly ever bends the sides or crinkles. The last laminator we had things would crinkle and get stuck often. This one works like a charm and we have had it for about a year now. Still working great!

Just plug it in and wait for the little light to come on and you're ready to go! I laminated a few pages of my Grandkids artwork. Except for the one time I put the pouch in crooked and tried to straighten it up as it fed into the machine, everything I laminated was smooth and wrinkle free! I have never laminated anything before so I think I did pretty good.I also cut down a smaller picture my Granddaughter had drawn and glued it to a piece of colored paper as a background and laminated it. I had used some fancy scissors to make the picture edges all scalloped and it looked very nice. I hot glued a couple of fake jewels on the corners, and a magnet on the back and now it is a very nice refrigerator magnet with a little memory inside.This is a nice, easy to use, fun little machine that works very well. :)

I tried it the first day I got it and it did okay. I like it that I don't have to use a sleeve with it like my old one required. I just slip it in the plastic pouch and slide it in. It didn't take as long to warm up as it said it would. The case does get warm but not hot. It is really small and compact. This small size is much nicer then the desktop Xerox laminator it replaced. I have cleaning sheets to run though it and it would be a good idea for people to get these cleaning sheets to run through it each time they are done using it. It will avoid a lot of problems if you do. Since this laminator doesn't require a protective sleeve (which is real nice) you want to clean those rollers often to keep your laminator pouches from wrapping around the rollers. All laminators that work this way need to be cleaned often. It is a simple matter of running the cleaning sheet through it after you are done and before you turn it off. Simple maintenance.

Easy to use

Defective product...failed on first use...Don't buy this product...Wasted my money.

Works as advertised. Can laminate much larger items than my previous one.

Works fine out of th box as my older GBC finally jammed after owning it a number of years. The one thing that bothers me is that did not include a true instruction book From the few drawings in a useless booklet and my prior experience with an older model, I figured it out but never 10% sure during feed of document. I ended up looking up the instruction booklet on line and printing it out. They should DEFINETLY have included the detail instruction booklet and not the tiny few pages booklet with warnings and a few drawings. No excuse for that! It is reason for the 4 starts instead of 5.

Works good on 5 mil pouches and such, such a great value with the 4 year protection plan. Will re visit this in a year or so to update.

Easy setup. Easy to use.

Equipo basico de buena calidad que funciona a la perfeccion y facil uso, probado con laminas de 3mm de la misma marca, recomendado.

Pésimo equipo solo me duró 5 meses

This laminator is perfect for my needs as a teacher. I've laminated pictures, flash cards, play money and other things that get handled a lot. Laminated paper and thin card stock equally well. It heats up quickly and is very easy to use. I'm very pleased!

Bon achat, très bon prix. Exactement ce que que je voulais pour remplacer ma plastifieuse de la même marque qui était défectueuse après 18 ans de service. Livraison rapide et fonctionne bien.
