Scotch Brand PRO Thermal Laminator, Never Jam Technology Automatically Prevents Misfed Items, 2 Roller System, 9 inch (TL906)

Works great! I had this same one for many years and just replaced it as it randomly stopped working. Heats up fast and does a good job. Simple and easy to follow instructions and makes you want to laminate all the things!

Does the job of much more expensive laminators, but not sure about heavy duty use.

10/10 recommend. We use it for homeschooling and it’s a life saver. It is a little noisy at first but not bad. Heats up quickly! Seems durable and like it’s going to last us. It works really well. I use it for everything, it laminates great.

There are a number of things that I would prefer in a laminator, such as being able to feed sheets through like a printer tray does so that it can reheat itself if necessary between feeds. An ability to handle larger lamination pouches, or even just a continuous laminator. Heck even this specific design could have a deeper tray woth a lower angle, or a better way of placing laminated items afterheating.All that said this was an absolute blast and I hate myself for all the years I wish I had a laminator instead of just purchasing one, and this laminator is really easy to use with awesome results so it's making this a wonderful experience

I bought this laminator back in 2020. It lasted me about 5 years. Which is great because nothing is made to last forever. At the beginning of this year it died on me.😞 it just won’t turn on anymore. So in my opinion it is worth buying again. It outlived the 3 year warranty Amazon offers when you buy it. So here I am buying it again hoping it is made of the same quality.

I have to say, I was somewhat concerned by the one star/no star reviews, most of which dealt with the laminator not working. I purchased it nonetheless, and I am GLAD that I did! Worked right out of the box, everything very simple to understand and operate. My first project was to laminate recipe cards for my wife. I put the recipes on 8 X 5 inch cards, and placed them 2 per laminate page (Fellowes Thermal Laminating Pouches, 5 mil thickness, and they work fine, with plenty of margin to completely seal the cards. I did 59 pouches in a row (total of about 110 pouches done for the project) without a hitch (well, one hitch - I wasn't paying enough attention to the feed and it sent the pouch through at a slight angle, enough to run into the side and cause a bubble. Good news though: I immediately ran it through again (properly) and it ironed the bubbles out; that was the only hiccup in the operation, and that was MY fault, not the machines. All in all, this is a splendid machine for home/light duty use. I used a Fellowes Neutron Plus Rotary Paper Trimmer to trim off the pouch excess, leaving about 1/4 - 5/16ths inch pouch edge beyond the card. The machine is very quiet, and I only have two niggles about it: 1) I would prefer to have the feeding guides a little higher; it's too easy to "go off the rails", although unless it's REALLY off, as in my error, it still works and feeds fine. That said, I recommend paying attention to straightening the pouch BEFORE the rollers catch it to prevent an angle feed. 2) I would have liked a slide out pouch support on the end of the feeder ramp - the Fellowes pouches have a good tacky surface that keeps everything in place, but I would have more piece of mind to have the unsealed end supported a bit more. Other than that, I am pleased with the purchase and functionality of this machine!

Great product

I've been in childcare and teaching for 15 years, been laminating things forever. I was skeptical on this, but for the upcoming school year I'm homeschooling and needed something STAT. Of course Amazon delivers. So I've now made a memory game and some little animal icons for my 2yo. No precutting. Super fast and simple setup to use. Heat up time takes a couple minutes. Quality is exceptional. I bought 3 MIL Letter size pack and I couldn't be happier with the price, quality, quickness and efficiency. 100/10 recommend.
