Crenova Laminator Machine,13 Inches A3 Laminator for A3/A4/A5/A6,Hot and Cold Settings,with 20pcs Laminating Sheets Pouches,Paper Trimmer,Hole Puncher,and Corner Rounder for Home Office School

The lamination not very effective to start with, then smoke came out of it and it was broken. Also received the machine without the Hole Puncher and Corner Rounder as claimed in the detailes

Very big compared to other laminators in the market. And expensive as well. I bought a different brand that works amazing light weight and compact in size for AED 70.

The machine heats up but the mechanism to move the sheet through the machine does not work

If you want a plug for using in Australia, be aware. This laminator doesn't come with an Australia/New Zealand plug. Grrrrr. Can't see anything about this detail on the information when we purchased.

I wanted to drop a comment regarding this amazing machine. This was a great investment. I love how large the inlet is, so if laminating sheet moves a little, you have wiggle room and it won’t be stuck. I had an issue with it, but the company helped me solve it. I am very pleased with them. If you are still thinking of buying it, think no more and do so.

This is my 1st laminator, so I didn't really know what to expect, as I've never laminated anything before either. It turned out to be quite simple. Just switched the button to "Hot", then a green light started blinking. Once the green light turned solid, I started laminating. I had a few dozen business cards and some certificates which I wanted laminated. I put a business card in a pouch (I used Apache Laminating Pouches, 5 mil, Business Card Size) , centered it, then inserted the closed end into the front of the machine. After about 10 seconds, the laminated card came out of the back of the machine. Then I just repeated the process, until I was finished. When I was done, I ran a sheet of copy paper through the unit to possibly clean any glue that may have gotten on the rollers. Overall, the unit ran perfectly. Super clear and no bubbles in the plastic whatsoever. I'm very pleased with this machine so far. I chose this Crenova laminator mostly because I wanted 13" and didn't want one with a paper cutter attached to the top of the machine. I figured if I needed a good paper cutter, I'd rather get one separately. The paper cutter which came with this works OK, but it's really not meant for heavy usage. You can only cut one thing at a time. It will cut through 5 mil laminate nicely, but if I had a lot of stuff to cut, then I'd probably want to use a guillotine-style paper cutter. Max size for this paper cutter is just 12" also, which is fine for my purposes. The corner rounder works OK too. It cuts through the 5 mil laminate cleanly. Another selling point was that this machine came with 25 pouches also (size: 5 A3, 5 A4, 5 A5, and 10 A6). So that saved me from buying more pouches, other than the business card-sized pouches which I needed.

ABSOLUTE LIFE SAVER. I use this for my sewing patterns and heats up so quick. Almost no noise. The patterns are so clear and easy to see. The thickness makes it durable and easy to use. Highly highly recommend

This is a nice laminator, but the cutter and trimmer were missing from the box and by the time I used it for the new school year, I could not return the whole product.
