A4 Laminator OL289, With innovative Eco-PTC-Technology, giving up to 75 percent energy-consumption saving compared to traditional laminators.

Arrived when stated and its performed perfectly on first use. It seemed to heat up a little quicker than I expected...by the time I had got a wallet and the picture ready the 'ready' light had turned on and I was done within 5 minutes. Operation was silent as well, no squeaking as some others have reported.I'm using it to laminate all my daughters drawings and school achievements that we want to keep, laminating them means they'll keep in great condition for years to come. I've already though of a load more uses for it as well. For sub £20 it's a great item to have to hand...and it's small meaning it won't take up much cupboard space.The laminating pouches I'm using are the H&S 2 x 75 microns (or 150 microns) which are perfect for use with this laminator.

There isn't much to a laminator, two heated rollers to provide pressure and melt the adhesive and thats it. The more complex ones allow adjustment of temperature, roller speed and pressure, but this is at the simple end of the market. As such it performs well! It offers the option of using cold sealing pouches, which might be useful in some instances. With no adjustment at all, it is important to select the correct pouch - I used the recommended Monolith pouches which so far have worked well For a low cost machine, it seems reasonably sturdy, and ideal for home or SOHO use.

Good little laminator for the price. Gets quite when using. Not too loud. The only slight issue is that if you use the more expensive wallets that have a watermark, it doesn't quite get rid of said watermark. Nevertheless I'm very pleased.

Super little laminator works well. Heated up quicker than suggested time. I needed to guide pouch through when I put several items in one pouch otherwise it tends to go off centre and will catch and crease. No issues with full A4 size being laminated. It’s compact size allows for easy storage. Would have liked a longer lead as it’s restricts where it can be used.

This is ideal for home use or small office. I plugged it in as soon as I had it - I needed one urgently - and it worked a treat. I’ve only just had it so can’t comment on its longevity, but I don’t see why it won’t last. A good price, easy to use not bulky. Speedy delivery.

Does a good job at laminating, but after owning it for a couple of months, it now makes a terrible squeaking noise when in operation. Doesn't stop it working work, but very annoying when you have the racket in the background while laminating a batch of posters.

I was surprised at how small this was but the biggest surprise was just how well it worked. Simple but efficient and the results are first class. I have read some reviews that report jamming but I discovered that the best way to use the machine was to turn it around so that the feeder slot and grey foil support faces you. This allows for a more accurate and square on feed of your work into the machine rather than trying to reach over it and feed it back towards you. This unit is not the fastest thing on the planet but the results make up for it. .

This does exactly what I bought it for. I wanted a small laminator that I could use for occasional use for the children and work. It's small, light and very quiet. It heats up in about 5 minutes then does the job perfectly. I laminated about 10 sheets as soon as it came out of the box without any problem.Would highly recommend.
