Laminating Sheets
on May 10, 2025
Posted by: J.M.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When opening the box the sheets felt really heavy and the plastic is nice and flexible. These laminating sheets are a bit difficult to use even when attempting to laminate a sheet of paper on a hard surface I ran into a bunch of creases as seen in the photo attached. For some of the smaller ones I was able to work them out with my finger or credit card. I think if the sheets were a little bit thicker and were designed to fold over that would eliminate a lot of the bubbles. Please note if you are laminating a regular size sheet of paper you would need to use two of the sheets- one in front and one on the back. When cutting any access use really sharp scissors to get straight lines. Overall I would use this product again but it has a learning curve.

Great for artwork
on May 9, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These self-adhesive sheet protectors are great for preserving artwork certificates and/or other special documents. I used the peel-and-stick on my child’s painting so that it would last without getting damaged! I can also see myself using these for labels. They are very intuitive to use - just peel the backing off and place on the paper. I folded over the extra on the edges but you could also cut off the extra on the sides. The sheet protectors are 9x12 so they have a little extra space on the edges to easily fit an 8.5x11 paper. Sometimes there are small fissures as you lay down the sheet protector but they are pretty easy run out. Overall I would recommend this product! Keep in mind they only cover one side of your paper but you could easily use one on each side. I like that these are a quicker option than laminating and you don’t have to haul out a machine because they stick all by themselves!

A temporary solution
on May 9, 2025
Posted by: M.D.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used these at work thinking they would be a great option for protecting original documents. I found the self laminating sheets to be ok for a temporary situation but I wouldn’t recommend it for something needing a good protection. It was difficult to get the sheets smooth and wrinkle free. Being that I wanted to be able to photocopy the documents this didn’t work well as the wrinkles would be visible. It was also challenging to get the paper straight as it couldn’t be adjusted after it touched the adhesive surface. I did find that it was easy to trim away excess material as long as I had the sticky side down on the trimmer. The box came with no instructions or tips maybe there’s a better way to use this. Unfortunately it didn’t work out for my needs.

Easy to use but a bit underwhelming

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited to test out these Staples brand self-adhesive sheet protectors. Although there were no instructions on or in the box I found using them to be very simple and quite intuitive. No additional equipment or tools were needed which I appreciated. The adhesion was strong enough to stick to glitter- and paint-covered construction paper but would still allow me to peel it back to remove air bubbles without damaging what I was laminating. I used them to laminate some holiday ornaments that my kids made at school and mock up some name tags for daycare cubbies. The thinness of these sheets is immediately evident and I found that made any bumps or wrinkles in the paper stand out more than before laminating. It did make accidental creases and air bubbles less noticeable though which was nice. The second thing I found I didn’t like was the translucency. They’re not transparent being similar to very thin waxed paper instead of clear plastic. It muted the bright colors of the ornaments considerably. I would recommend these for higher contrast less detailed projects like name tags. Black font became a dark grey through the laminating sheets which was just fine for my cubby labels. Lastly after trimming the excess lamination away from the ornaments the sheets have begun to separate from each other so these have a limit to how closely you can trim them before product failure. Overall I was underwhelmed by this product but appreciate it’s usefulness in a limited variety of applications.

Could be better
on May 9, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We used these sheets when we were making homemade bookmarks. The sheets get the job done but the quality isn’t the best. It gives off scotch tape vibes and they are very opaque. These also do not provide as much “glare” protection as stated on the package. It gets the job done but could be improved!

Convenient

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love this because I've been wanting a laminator but I had such a hard time getting them smooth. Almost every time I put one on a document it ended up with wrinkles or bubbles. Maybe it is a user error but I could not figure it out! I'll keep trying but I'm not sure I could recommend them at this point!
