Great, portable machine for occasional laminators
By Denise Patterson
I teach a class for a homeschool co-op once a week, so often have a need to laminate items for my class, but this being a co-op, they don't really provide those kinds of supplies for the teachers. I've been getting by with those sticky, fussy, self-adhesive pouches and my classes have had to put up with the less than perfect results.Enter the Fellowes Cosmic 125 Laminator! It fortunately arrived on a day when I had several sight word cards to laminate - these are not really cardstock, but just thin paper, and so lamination is ESSENTIAL if these are going to survive being passed around the class.The box was securely packaged, and the first thing I found open opening it was a single sheet of graphical do's and don'ts that quickly acquainted me with all the major rules for using the laminator. I like the way they put this on top, so even 'I don't read directions' types can hardly help but look at it. The instruction booklet itself (because I AM the type who reads directions!) was short & to the point & very clear. It helps that it comes pre-assembled - nothing to screw together or even snap together, just unpack it, plug it in, and go!A set of 10 hot laminating pouches comes with the laminator, so I was able to get started right away. Well, almost right away - the machine takes about 5 minutes to warm up enough to use the hot lamination. I would suggest getting your work organized so you can do several sheets of laminating at a time in order to prevent wasting electricity. Also, even though this is a portable machine, the length of time it takes to warm up makes it a poor choice for if you often need to do hot lamination on very short notice. And speaking of heating up - the laminator itself did not get hot while I was working with it, although it did get a little warm on top, and I suspect it would get hotter for an extended session (I only had a few sheets to do today). The instructions warn that it may take as long as 90 minutes to cool completely if you are switching from hot lamination to cold lamination, so I was worried it would get too hot to sit on my kitchen counter, but it was fine.As for the laminating process itself, that went very well. The operation is almost silent, and although there is a faint odor as it warms up and works, it is not very strong or offensive. The automatic guide feeds your laminating pouch into the machine at a steady but slow speed - don't push it! I do wish the guide tray was a little longer so I didn't have to stand there and hold the pouch the entire time, but that's a minor quibble. The laminated cards themselves turned out PERFECT and this is going to be very useful for my classes.In short, I would recommend this laminator for people with occasional laminating needs - if you needed to laminate daily, standing there holding the pouch while it slowly feeds in would get tedious. But, for small laminating jobs, this is a great choice!

Need to have Heat Control
By R. Yu
Used this to laminate some framed certificates that were wrinkling due to moisture. The instructions are poor (can be said for 95% of electronic products) in English as well as Francais, Espanol and Deutsche (I'm sure). It tells you how to laminate in 'cold' or 'hot', but does not advise on which one to use for or other specifics. It does come with a 10-pack of 3 mil thick laminating sheets. It turned out be to easy to use. I first tried one in 'cold', but it did nothing, and am still wondering what that setting is for, then re-did it in 'hot', and came out perfect. Did two more but the heat changed the bright red logos to brown, and the lettering became noticibly less sharp. I don't mind it as much some others might, but there should be a simple heat control for certain types of paper/ink. There are many grades of paper (glossy to construction paper), and the same for ink, and a laminating company should advise paying customers on the effects of the heat. So again, the first one I did also had a red logo, and came out perfectly. Definitely depends on the paper/ink.

This is a great laminator
By feemeister
My only beef with this is the instructions are not clear at all, and they really don't give you information on how to use it.I have only tried the hot lamination, as they didn't include pouches for the cold laminator. But the hot works great. Tried it on several items, and was very happy with all of them (all were paper).Great item, highly recommend!
