Deskit Laminator Compact A4 Thermal Laminator Machine - Quick Warm Up with Jam Release Button, Machine for Home and Office - Portable and Heat Free (A4 Compact)

highly recommended.

The media could not be loaded. This laminator has a slim profile and fits up to A3 size laminates.It’s a nice modern style and shape compared to the older rectangular generations.A simple rocker switch to power it up, it is taking 3-4 minutes to heat up and illuminate the ready lamp.There is no temperature adjustment, just cold or hot.Heat is really only expelled from the front and the base remains thankfully cool. The top gets a little warm.I like the anti jam lever that enables you to pull out crumpled sheets. I’ve had that happen in the past.The underside houses to cutter and edge trimmer. The ruler cutter has handy markings and can also take up to A3 sized laminates.The edge trimmer slides out easy but the ruler/cutter is a pain to release.The ruler/ cutter has soft silicone feet which I really like.The power cord is approximately 1.5m long. I could do with it being a little longer.

Recently my laminator died on me, it just wasn’t heating up hot enough to actually laminate, so this came at the ideal time.I laminate leaflets in my packages so this has turned out to be extremely useful. It gets to temperature as quick as any other laminator.The pages go in easily and the laminating process is smooth and easy as you'd hope. The end result was a perfectly laminated page so I am very happy with this. All pages have so far come out completely straight and I've seen no signs of curling.I have only tried A4 but am looking to use this for the larger size too eventually as my previous laminator couldn't do it.Definitely recommend this.

It seemed okay at first. But there were slight noises every so often, then about 5 weeks after I bought it. It stopped taking even just 80gsm paper with glossy laminate. Something went wrong with the mechanism inside. Contacted the company, ofc no reply. Infact I contacted the company on two occasions to ask about stickers and stuff for lamination. No reply. Amazon had my back though and refunded me even though it was after 30 days and only fulfilled through them.

The media could not be loaded. Looking on Amazon it appears this is priced on the high side for a hot/cold laminator and as such I would expect better build quality. You might be able to see from the video that the plastic body has been poorly cut leaving moulding marks a wonky bevel and rough cut acrylic piece. The built in trimmer is a nice touch and very handy but again poorly made so catches in places as you run the cutter along. The edge stamp is also nice touch but the blade is poorly fitted and stamped the actual machine itself works albeit slowly and the supplied pouches do a good job with no bubbles in the laminate

You receive a well made, very solid laminator, which comes with a good starter pack, a cutter, and a pack of sheets.As far as laminators go this does everything I would expect to with ease it heats up relatively quickly and will do a3 and smaller laminations. It's also includes a handy trimmer and a corner round there for when you are doing custom size laminations that you want to ensure are smart and equal definitely far better than trying to use scissors! On the few test laminations I carried out there was no problems whatsoever. Results are excellent, smooth with no creases, heated nice and quickly and produced a nice clear finish.

Insufficient heat to reliably seal any weight pockets.Can’t handle heavier-weight pockets.Would not recommend or buy again. Will have to replace it with a more substantial model

I ORDERED THIS MACHINE PAYING A PRICE OF £29.95. It is a laminater which should also have pouches and a cutter. WHEN THE MACHINE ARRIVED IT HAS A PRICE STICKER ON ON AT A PRICE OF £13.95. IT DOES NOT HAVE ANY POUCHES OR A CUTTER. PLEASE ADVISE
