Scotch Thermal Laminator, 2 Roller System for a Professional Finish, Use for Home, Office or School, Suitable for use with Photos (TL901X)

I’ve been using the Scotch Thermal Laminator (TL901X) for a few months now, and it has completely exceeded my expectations! Whether I’m laminating documents for work, kids’ artwork, or even recipe cards, this machine delivers a smooth, professional finish every time.Setup was a breeze—just plug it in, wait a few minutes for it to warm up, and you’re ready to go. I appreciate the simplicity of the design: no unnecessary buttons or complicated features, just a reliable machine that does exactly what it promises. Everything comes out crystal-clear and sealed edge to edge. It works great with 3 mil and 5 mil pouches, which gives me the flexibility to laminate everything from standard papers to heavier items like ID cards or instructional signs.It’s also surprisingly compact and lightweight, so I can easily store it in a drawer or cabinet when not in use. And at this price point, it’s a fantastic value for both occasional and frequent laminators.

Bought this for work, we laminate a lot of signs and other papers. This laminator is great. Have purchased one before and it lasted forever (over 4 years maybe longer). We finally had to break down and buy a new one. It doesn't take long to warm up and has two setting for laminating pouches. The final product always looks clear with no wrinkles or bubbles. This product is work purchasing!

I got this to make some homemade cards and signs and it's SO easy to use. Be careful with positioning cuz it can eat it diagonally if you aren't careful (like a shredder), but it's generally slow enough that it isn't difficult to catch it early.I've used it for a few small projects and it hasn't had any issues yet.Nice small profile, the pouches work well, and I'm very satisfied with the quality of this laminator.

Perfect for your laminating needs! I love using these to laminate my littles projects at home. It makes me feel fancy because I laminated her art and it also keeps it safe from getting ruined. It was easy to use and very durable. It came with plenty I don’t know if I’ll need more for a while.

User-Friendly Design: is compact and lightweight, making it easy to store and transport. It features a straightforward setup with two temperature settings suitable for 3 mil and 5 mil pouches.Quality Lamination: Utilizing a two-roller system, it delivers smooth, bubble-free results, even on photos.Affordability: Priced competitively, it offers excellent value for occasional laminating needs.Quick Warm-Up: Heats up in approximately 5–8 minutes, allowing for efficient operation.

I have had this laminator for 4 years, bought in Dec. 2020. It has crinkled papers but it has a release which makes it easier to remove them and pull them out. It went through phases when it would crinkle the corners but I never knew how it would act as it got older. This could be from me transporting it from home to school. I had been dropped and the bottom broke apart from the screws and it still worked. There were pieces broken in it that rattled and it still worked. It worked for 4 years, again I wish it would have lasted longer. I prefer this one over my other amazon basics one that does the same thing but does not have a release latch. I undecided if I will purchase this one again or a new one, but I am leaning towards this one.

I belong to a club and we host different events during the year, well somehow along the way I became the clubs sign/flyer maker. As such I purchased these after a storm during an event made the flyers unreadable and ruined. So far these have never let me (or the club) down. Would buy again and actually have.

Only used it about 5 times so far but it has worked very well. The laminated paper came out perfectly clear. No jamming or bubbling. I used the Amazon Basics brand of laminating sleeves.Very easy to use - I followed the instructions that came in the box and it worked perfectly!It did get quite hot in the 10 minutes we were using, not hot enough to burn yourself on it but hot enough that I wondered if that was normal. I've only had one other laminator years ago so I can't be sure, I just wouldn't want to leave it turned on any longer than 20 minutes or so, or leave it unattended for too long.It didn't give out any smoke or funny smells.I will update this review as we continue to use it, I want to experiment with thicker paper and other projects.
