Laminator Machine for A3/A4/A6, YE381 13inch Thermal & Cold Laminating Machine for Home Office School Teacher Use with 50 Pouches, Paper Trimmer and Corner Rounder

Nice laminator for a reasonable price! Seals the plastic envelopes tote and you can feed the standard size 8.5x11" in sideways for a faster seal. Timer works great, and the corner notcher is an important handy feature.

Good

Fun to use

Great value for the price. Using heavier laminate sheets you have to run two passes. But the unit seals well.

We purchased this machine on Sept 10, 2024 and it broke at the end of January 2025. It is out of the return window. Was working great, until it wasn't. When plugged in, the machine powers on but never warms up and the green light never shows. We have tried several outlets (although as mentioned, it turns on) and we tried the troubleshooting suggestions online. We are using the correct sized laminating sheets and the side botton is on HOT.This machine is useless to us now as the laminating sheet comes out cold and does not seal. We did not purchase the extended warranty. We have yet to find any other suggestions and will be forced to throw this away if we do not hear back from customer service. For this reason, we suggest you research another brand of laminator and not purchase this one.***Follow Up: Customer service did reach out fairly quickly and we did get a full refund for the non-working item. We added a couple of stars because, when the laminator was working, it was working great and we loved the cutting features and the cute corner cutter attached to the bottom of the machine. However, we cannot recommend this product since it never started working again.***Follow Up 3/17/25 In addition to the full refund, customer service did sent a new laminator. This one seems to be working great so far. We'll keep our fingers crossed!

easy setup. light weight. not bulky. smooth finish.

I really wanted to like this thermal laminator, but unfortunately, my experience was frustrating from the start. I tried laminating two documents, and both were completely ruined – the machine just chewed them up for no apparent reason. I followed all the instructions and used the recommended pouches, but it still jammed.On my third attempt, the document actually came out the other side, but it was totally wrinkled and unusable.The only redeeming feature is the built-in paper cutter on top – that part works well. It's a neat idea and could have been a great all-in-one tool, but sadly, the laminator itself is unreliable. I can't recommend this product.

This was an excellent purchase. It has all the bells and whistles you need. It does an excellent job. If I needed another one I would repurchase this same one.
