Swingline Inspire™ Plus Thermal Pouch Laminator, 9" Max Width, 4 Minute Warm-up, 3 -5 Mil, Black

I am 50 years old and finally bought my first laminator. I chose this one because the brand is well known and it seemed to be easy to use. I wish i would've purchased one years ago. It's perfect for families %26 for people who have medical issues %26 need to keep a binder with medical information. I'm so glad I purchased.

I bought to use with my Cricut to make my cake toppers reusable. it came with 5 sheets of laminating paper so I could use it the day it arrived. I love how my cake toppers turned out

Really good for the price. Works perfect for small projects. Haven't use thicker paper but laminates good regular printing paper

I've been putting this thing to work for the past few days. It works great. It warns it might smell funny at first, and it does, but it's that hot plastic smell you'd expect from laminating and it went away after the first time. I've been using it for hours at a time with no issue. It is a compact size, has a plug and a switch to turn off and on. It also has a switch for hot or cool laminating. A light turns on when it's ready. It's pretty simple to use and works wonderfully for me so far.

It is a great machine and gets the job done

Seems okay but it does smell

This is an excellent laminator that can be stored easily in a drawer or under the bed.

I was looking for small but sturdy machine to fit a small area in my home and it fits just right.

This item does not have a tray- so if you're laminating multiple sheets, u cant load the next sheet until the other one is all the way out. Next- it spits out the laminating sheets on the other side, right where the cord goes, and it caused the sheets to warp, then harden that way. It also takes a lot of space to laminate - u need one page plus a few inches before the machine, and one page plus a few inches after the machine all clear to use this. Its not very practical.

Item worked great the first two times. I laminated just a couple items each time. On the third use, it wouldn't heat up to laminate. I had to return. Seller promptly gave a refund. I was super disappointed in the fact it is a name brand and it only worked twice.
