I've typically enjoyed using this product in my classroom. Recently, I was using it and it shut off without warning mid-way through laminating something. I unplugged it and let it cool off before trying to use it again and it would not turn on.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We bought the laminator a week ago. Used it once and laminated 3 sheets and went to use it today and the laminator started running immediately as if the auto-shutoff detected a sheet. Ran two sheets through and they laminated fine, but the machine would not stop running.
I bought this item about 2-3 months ago. The constant problem I have is (looking at the front of the machine) when the lamination starts to feed into the machine the right corner constantly catches on something and folds over regardless of plain paper or photo. Attached are 3 photos of 3 different attempts at lamination. Do you have any suggestions for correction of this issue???

I've been using this product for a few weeks now and it has done okay, but this morning when I tried to turn it on, it wouldn't feed at all and something smelled like it was burning. I don't

I bought this almost two months ago, and I wish I hadn't. Within 2 weeks of purchase, the machine refused to load in the laminating pouch. Occasionally, the machine leaves air bubbles and parts of the paper are not laminated. When the machine works, it does a great job, but it has not been functioning properly more and more frequently.

I just got the laminator today and was so excited. Turned it on and began to laminate for my classroom project. Mid-way through a sheet, it shut off with no warning. I unplugged it. Let it cool completely and then tried again. Will not turn on at all and it’s my first use. Very disappointed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 3M gave me a free sample of this product to try out and I was pretty stoked to put it thru its paces. Before receiving this free sample, I had been a long time user of one of Scotch's older laminator models (5 + years) and this latest model had a bunch of things that I really loved. The extra wide paper loading area made it easy to laminate scrapbooking pages and signs for the local school that I volunteer for that don't fit the standard 8 1/2 by 11 model. It also seemed to warm up a little faster than my previous model, was whisper quiet while the paper was being run thru the machine (my old model would whine a little) and the laminated products came out cool to the touch when they were finished being laminated. Having the product come out cool is a big plus for me as a mom because it made me feel comfortable that I could have my older son use this with no problem for school projects. The only small issue that I noted was the cool down time of the machine. It did seem to take longer than my older machine but overall, it wasn't anything that bothered me too much. Lastly, but certainly not unimportant, is the new look of the machine. Its pretty sleek and looks so good with my other Apple equipment in my office. I would definitely recommend this machine to anyone
I purchased this item because Scotch Brand is usually reliable. I used it once and it worked well. I went to use it a second time and it refuses to feed at all. I looked on this site for trouble shooting answers ans there are none. I notice that there are quite a few bad reviews for the same problem I'm having. I also notice that the company is not offering solutions in this area. You can believe , this is the last Scotch product I ever purchase. Not even tape.
