I bought this laminator on a hunch, without any recommendation, to use for transferring Laser/toner printouts to copper clad PCB's. I had wanted to try using a laminator to make PCB's but was put off by buying one through the mail - these are stocked at Walmart (usually#. Right out of the box, without any "mods" to the thermostat, and using cheap paper I cut out of a magazine, I got a great, clean transfer which made a really nice board. On the 5 mil setting a 1/16" double sided copper clad board fed right through like this machine was made for it. I fed the board through probably, 10 times and when it cooled the magazine paper popped right off without soaking and about 99% of the toner had completely transferred to the board - there was no toner left on the paper. I was pretty astonished #in a good way# and Im left wondering if Scotch got smart and some of this performance wasn't engineered into the machine #this is version 2 of this machine#...probably not but no matter...it seems to get just hot enough for a clean transfer...if I can repeat these results I wouldn't even think of modding it..
Purchased the Scotch TL902 Thermal Laminator for a presentation project. Easy to set up and use. Love the hidden cord storage. 5-6 minutes for the blue ready light to glow. Quiet operation, works great on the first pass, no bubbles. I am thrilled that a carrier sheet is not required. I wasn't sure if I wanted to make the investment in the machine, and I priced out laminating my presentation at two box stores. Hands down, the laminator just about paid for itself on this one project, even though I had to purchase a box of laminating sleeves. The laminator comes with only two letter size laminating sleeves. **BONUS** I Didn't realize there is a handy carrier handle incorporated into the design. The instructions did not illustrate how to return the input tray to its original position for storage. Checked out a 45 sec video on YouTube. Super simple! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5rQWbEBAys One tiny nit: The tabs are a tad too short to hold the input tray in the storage position, so just be careful when lifting, that it doesn't flop out. Other than that, this is a great machine and I would recommend it to others.
This laminator works like a charm. Heating up time is quick and it seals and looks like commercial laminating. I will recommend this laminator to anyone who needs a laminator for personal use like myself. I am now laminating endlessly for my two toddlers. I totally love this piece of apparatus. I couldn't wait to give my honest review because I depend on reviews to purchase items.
My schools laminator was constantly breaking and I decided to invest in my own. I'm a broke teacher and this seemed so affordable. It works great and heats up quickly! Well worth the money! I'm even printing my niece digital art and laminating it for her!
This is an excellent home product that every home should have. Its light weight yet it does an awesome job laminating. Im a homeschool teacher and its perfect.
For the most part the laminator is great, but for some reason it didn't laminate the entire page and I ran it through twice. It had been warmed up like the directions advised, and I used Scotch brand pouches. Also the contents were flat. I really dont understand. I was disappointed.
Love this laminator! It works great! The only reason I gave it a 4 star is because it would be helpful to have a tray to help load items. if you're doing one solid item it wouldn't be such a big deal. However, as a teacher, I tend to do a bunch of small little things on one big sheet, and if I don't put something solid under it to help load it they fall out of the sheet or get turned out of position.
I'm sure the actual machine is great. What I got was someone's junky return with dirt on it and stickers that had been hastily reboxed and returned and then resold.
I have had this for 11 months used about 3 times . I tried to use it , plugged it up it sounds like it's on but will not heat up . Call customer service very helpful but no receipt. You have no replacement. I would not buy this product. Model TL 902
I somehow convinced myself that my Wal-Mart brand "Pen Gear" lamintor was too basic and it was time to upgrade. I've used this Scotch brand laminator a few times no problems. Today I got my new state Registration renewal card and decided to go ahead and protect it with my lamintor. I put my Registration in the Scotch brand 5 Mil pouch popped it on the feed and by the time it hit me that it wasn't coming out the other end. It was too late. I used tweezers and pliers and it was HOT pulling it out. This could have ended much worse. My cheap "Pen Gear" will be my primary from now on. I hope this was user error because if this is a manufacturer defect it will surely cause a serious fire or worse.
