So easy to use!
on June 14, 2022
Posted by: claff01
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot believe how easy this product is to use! And it is so sleek! The power cord seems a bit longer than some others I've used, and that is a plus when working in a classroom where outlets are hard to find! The machine heated up so quickly, and the first document went through so smoothly. I laminated a few other things to fairly see what the machine could handle, like back-to-back sheets, and it worked beautifully! I also love the option to use larger documents, although I do not yet have the proper laminating sheets. No need thus far to use the jam release button, but I LOVE the auto shut off. The Halo 125 Laminator gets 2 thumbs up from me! * "I received this product free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review."
Pros: Anti-Jamming Features, ease of use, Speed
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect for Home Office

Posted by: mamabear1517
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fellowes Halo 125 Laminator with Pouch Starter Kit is perfect for my home office! It's sleek and slim, and it's easy to store and can fit comfortably on my desk without taking up too much space. I love that it comes with the Starter Kit so it's ready to go the minute you open the box! I own a small, home-based business and it's great for creating Operating Procedures to have on hand regularly and keeping them protected for continuous use.
Pros: Anti-Jamming Features, ease of use, Mil Thickness Capacity, Quality Construction, Safety Features, Speed, Warranty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this for home projects and it works great. It heats up very quickly and the laminating pouches are simple to use. They glide right through and sealed well, even around my not perfectly cut thin copy paper.
Pros: ease of use, Speed
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this laminator! It works great for pictures and documents. I have many documents and drawings that I want to keep for a long time and this laminator helps me to do just that. It is the perfect size for my small home office. My next project is labels and I am counting on my little helper to make this project doable. I can be forgetful so I appreciate the auto shutoff! It is easy to use, even for beginners, and would be a great addition to each household or office.
Pros: ease of use, Quality Construction, Safety Features

Homeschool Family
on December 12, 2021
Posted by: Mommyof2
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family is homeschooling this year and the Fellowes Halo 125 Laminator with Pouch Starter Kit is an excellent addition to our homeschool.
It’s lightweight and small and looks very slim and sleek. The Fellowes Halo 125 Laminator with Pouch Starter Kit is not an eye sore sitting on my desk and you can use 3 or 5-mil hot or cold pouch up to 12.5 paper. Also receiving the free pouches saved my family money.
There's even an auto shutoff component that activates after 30 minutes of inactivity to prevent overheating and help conserve energy. It’s states Insta heat technology but It does takes a little longer than suggested to warm up but then 1 & 2 and you’re done!
I highly recommend the Fellowes Halo 125 Laminator with Pouch Starter Kit.
Pros: Anti-Jamming Features, ease of use, Mil Thickness Capacity, Quality Construction, Safety Features, Speed

Works Great!
on December 11, 2021
Posted by: aebn2001
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This laminator works great. Easy to setup and easy to use. I like the option of being able to switch between cold or hot laminating. When powered ON, it defaulted to cold laminating. You will need to press the PLAY button to switch to heat laminating (3 or 5 mil thickness) and the rollers heat up fast. The wide entry (12.5 in) is accommodating to different document sizes. I usually forget to shut this off when done so I love, love, love the auto shutoff safety feature. This thing came with a pack of laminating pouches (25). My wife is an educator, so it all been used up. We already purchased 2 more packs of laminating pouches!
Pros: Anti-Jamming Features, ease of use, Mil Thickness Capacity, Quality Construction, Safety Features, Speed, Warranty

Great Lightweight Laminator!
on December 7, 2021
Posted by: Charlie412
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Halo125 Small Office Laminator by Fellowes is a great tool to have in your home office. The machine is small, light weight & compact which makes it easy to store while not in use. The Laminator takes approximately 1 minute to heat up and allows the selection of cold lamination, 3mil or 5mil sleeves. The machine has a few safety features also such as the Jam button which allow you to remove the document if a problem occurs and the auto shut off which powers down the unit if. It in use for several minutes. It was nice of Fellowes to include a very descriptive user manual and 25 3mil lamination pouches to get you started. I also appreciate the warranty that comes with the laminator. Trust me, you will enjoy using this product!
Pros: Anti-Jamming Features, ease of use, Mil Thickness Capacity, Quality Construction, Safety Features, Speed, Warranty

Easy to Use
on November 30, 2021
Posted by: Neddy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've really enjoyed using the Fellowes® Halo™ 125 Laminator and I was pleasantly surprised that it came with a 25 Pouch Starter Kit. The InstaHeat Technology let's the unit warm up in just one minute. It's perfectly sized for my small office in my apartment. I use this laminator more than I could've ever imagined. You can use 3-mil or 5-mil hot or cold pouches and up to 12.5" paper. There's even an auto shutoff feature that activates after 30 minutes of inactivity to prevent overheating and help conserve energy. I frequently laminate important documents, certificates, or anything I wish to preserve and keep in excellent condition and this is the perfect tool for doing so.
Pros: ease of use, Quality Construction, Warranty
Cons: n/a
