TI have been using these Staples Letter size laminating pouches for several years now and have always been pleased with the results. THe pouches are just the right size for an 8.5 x 11 paper. My primary use is to laminate books which usually measure 2.5 x 8" The bookmarks come out crystal clear and never a wrinkle as long as glossy paper is not used. I also have laminated cards medicare cards documents etc. These pouches provide the durability and the clearness I look for when laminating.
These laminating sheets worked great! They were not as thick as what I have used previously. However I was pleasantly surprised I would highly recommend these.
My wife IS "The Smooth Laminator"! Without this product she would not be nearly as effective in her efforts. The proof of the quality of this product is actually all around the world! My wife laminates everything. The most wonderful thing she does is laminating cards (the size of a standard business card) and signs (the size of a standard bumper sticker). These cards and signs have positive affirmations inspirational sayings and reminders on them. My wife has made her "BREATHE" sign a new popular fad. I speak to my friend in Canada on Skype and I see my wife's "BREATHE" sign hanging in the background. I go to people's professional offices and there it is the "BREATHE" sign. Our friend from Pennsylvania came to visit today and I was sitting in the front seat of her car and there it was on the dashboard; the "BREATHE" sign. ALL made with this product. ALL in perfect condition after a year two years and more. This product is a winner and it is changing the world one loving sign or card one person at a time!
THese laminating pouches are just perfect for laminating bookmarks. They provide the durability I want and the laminate is just the right thickness. The 3 mil. is thin enought that the bookmarks are a bit flexible and thin enough for the paperback books. THe pouches are chrystal clear and laminate without wrinkles. I have used these pouches for several years now and am never disappointed/
I use these at school to finish off Christmas presents for parents. Each child does a complete calendar with their own art projects on each month. We then have a fancy cover that they also have done. We laminate the title collate the calendars and run them through a spiral feeder. Once a year I attend a convention and special seats are reserved to certain people. Their names are put on decorated paper and laminated to reserve their seats. The laminating machine is great for preserving pictures and medical cards.
