Dumb tray
While it works fine once you get it working, the tray design is awful at best, with no directions how to open it. If you are wondering how to open the stupid tray, and are afraid of breaking it, YouTube it.

Bad product
From the start- curled the edges every time. Sheets kept getting stuck and wouldn’t release.

Arrived used?
Works well- but arrived very clearly used. Was missing the 2 lamination pouches and was covered in animal hair. There was nothing protecting it in the product box, it was in there completely by itself.

No Power 😡
Have used this unit for a few years, and it has worked perfectly.... until now. Needed to do some laminating, unit does not want to turn on. I see several other comments for the same problem. I always store this in the original box with all the packing materials. It is unacceptable that this no longer works.

Ex Lover of Scotch
I had to buy a new one since my older model was slowing down. Very disappointed since the tray broken the second time I used it! Now I have to search for another one.

Great Laminatoe
This product is similar to the previous laminator I owned. Very easy to use. It warms up quickly and provides a good quality final product.

Affordable, easy to use
Affordable laminator that is easy to use. Compact, convenient ready light lets you know when it is heated up. Two settings - 3 & 5 mil buttons for the correct heat setting. Feed tray drops down too easily which can cause shifting of the items being laminated. It would be helpful if the feed tray was longer, but given how the product is designed to be compact & portable, that isn't possible. The pouches appear cloudy, but are crystal clear after lamination.

Good medium-quality laminator
Excellent laminator for the cost, not super fast but if you’re not doing tons a time, that’s fine. Takes just a few minutes to heat up

Bummer!
While it worked it was awesome. Easy to use. Did the job... I've had mine for less then a year, I have used it twice, now it won't even turn on. Upon looking at Scotch's website this product actually rated like 1-2 stars

I'd give it zero stars if I could.
It was no good on the first use. It made a loud noise and sheet got stuck inside. It ruined my project. Too bad I didn’t get a warranty.

Not dependable.
I laminated 3 things then while I was printing the next sets it went in to the flashing green ready and will not work anymore. I used it last year no problems very disappointing as now I have to spend more money.

Broken Tray
The actual laminating part works well and I haven’t had any issues with the sheets. However, the tray has broken after a few weeks. There are tiny little knobs that snap into place and hold the tray up, but they’re small plastic pieces, and both are broken. So, I have to hold the tray up and try to get my laminating sheets into the machine. I may try gluing the tray, which means I won’t be able to store the machine in the box.

Little workhorse fits the bill!
Great little machine. I’ve used it several times now, for several months, and I have no complaints. I store it in its original packaging when not in use. The tray: Just take care and gently lift it up into position. Don’t be a beast about it. The smell: It’s a laminator. It gets HOT and melts plastic together. It’d be weird if it didn’t smell. Feeding the sheets: Insert sealed edge into feeder first. Go slow with steady hands on either side, guiding it until the rollers grab. You have a little wiggle room for good reason I would think. Just follow the directions printed plainly on the tray. Let the machine heat up (about 5 minutes), choose the mm to be used, wait for the ready light to come on, and go! I haven’t had an issue with bubbles. I have laminated 8.5 x 11 sheets and smaller cards together in one sheet to be cut after laminating. Very pleased.

Doesn't Work
It doesn’t work. It just crinkles the paper and jams.
