Having used other brands in the past when it came time to purchase a new laminator I took a chance on this lesser known brand. This cheap machine really gives you everything you need. Heats quickly. Great size for space saving, very time efficient with quality results. I ran a few different sheets through (stay away from the Amazon basics brand they are flimsy and we're the only sheets to cause jams in this machine, jams are easily resolved.

Its very simple to use, heat up and get ready for use in couple of minutes and do perfect laminations.Recommend this product..

I just needed a simple laminator for simple projects, and this does the job PERFECTLY! It has only jammed once due to my error (I was impatient), but my patient husband fixed it and everything is good as new. I love that it's lightweight and compact and easy to use. I cannot say enough good things about this purchase.

I have used my new laminator a few times now and it is very simple and straightforward, which is perfect for me. I didn't want anything terribly complicated and this fits the bill. It's compact and can be put away in a cabinet or drawer. Let it heat up for more than the recommended time for smoother laminating and to avoid repeat passes. I let it heat up for 8-10 minutes and the process is done in one pass. Great little tool!

Purchase his laminator and have used it many times super easy to use. It has a cold setting as well as a hot setting. It has a light indicator letting you know when it’s ready so far I haven’t had any issues works perfect and the price was amazing.

I bought the laminator for laminating some study materials. The product arrived on time.The laminator is very compact and lightweight which makes it very easy to store.The operation is very easy and heats faster once turned on and is ready to use.The lamination has a very smooth and nice finish. There are no open edges.The product comes with some free laminating sheets which can be used for laminating cards, invitations etc and is of good quality.I would recommend this product.

I love this little laminator. It is an awesome value for money. I have used it for 2 months. It’s fast and does a great job. I just wish it had a feeder guide to make it easier to put the papers in properly. Unless you get it perfect, it will crinkle. I would recommend this product to anyone in need of one.

This "Crenova A4" laminator is as basic and SIMPLE a one that you can purchase... NO heat-intensity adjustment; NO page-thickness adjustment (but it's worked admirably with both 3-mil & 5-mil thickness sheets); NO 'reverse' switch (in case of page-'jams'...but it DOES have a lever in the back that will disengage the roller-gears, so the sheet can then be manually pulled out in case of a mis-feed); NO 'Cold' lamination setting (for use otherwise, with self-stick sheets--but I suppose you can seal three or four of those type of sheets with this at the outset of turning it on, before it has the chance to heat). Simply, and I repeat, 'SIMPLY,' "ON" or "OFF" and that's about it!Aside from its lack of any 'gadgetry,' I HAVE ALMOST NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS THUS FAR, SEALING SOME 300 PAGES OF PAPER WITH THIS "CRENOVA" SINCE PURCHASING IT SOME FIVE MONTHS AGO NOR HAS IT EVER EXPERIENCED A FATAL OR MAJOR PAGE-JAM.Any problems I have experienced (such as a bit of 'wrinkling' of the lamination on occasion) I've attributed to my lack of care in ensuring that the paper and lamination-sheet are perfectly flat and not uneven or 'askew' in any way prior to insertion into the machine (especially when using lamination-sheet brands of lesser quality).As stated, thus far, I've sealed no fewer than about three hundred page-sheets with this and my ONLY complaint about this "Crenova" machine is that ITS FEED-SLOT SHOULD REALLY BE AT LEAST 1/3 INCH (or) .84 CM WIDER.Yes, you MUST ensure that, upon inserting your 8.5"-wide letter/legal-sized page, that IT'S PERFECTLY CENTERED AND NOT THE LEAST BIT SLANTED in the machine's 9 inch/23 cm-wide feed-slot (lest the edge of the page begin to increasingly rub/fold against the slot's left/right side, ultimately resulting in a deformed edge of the sheet).Also, the seller BROKE ITS PROMISE to me! Included with the laminator was a card/offer for a free pack of 100 lamination-sheets. Despite emailing them two times with the request (along with my address, mandated "Amazon" order # and PDF image of the card-offer), they NEVER fulfilled that promise and I never received the free lamination-sheets.IMPORTANT UPDATE: They eventually did send them to me months later, ONLY after I submitted this review to Amazon... Perhaps they, too, read it!FREEBIES, OTHERWISE INCLUDED WITH the laminator were two items I've found quite handy on occasion:1- A 1-foot (.30 meter) wide, plastic (except for cutting blade) paper/lamination cutter. (And)...2- A little 'clipper' for rounding the corners of the laminated (or paper) page.Haven't used either yet sufficiently to attest to their longevity but, thus far...THE PAPER-CUTTER has proven beneficial for trimming a straight, fraction-of-an-inch from pages' sides (works well on the plastic, as well) PROVIDED THAT, once you've inserted and leveled/centered the side of the page 'sandwiched' between its two plastic guide-plates, you then GRIP THE TOP AND BOTTOM PLATES SECURELY against the paper, to prevent the page from shifting out of position, once you begin sliding the cutter-blade to make the cut.THE CORNER-ROUNDER PUNCH/TRIMMER seems to effectively catch and trap those tiny pieces it trims from the paper's corners in order to round them off, within its bottom containment-area UNTIL you make a wrong move with it (say, turning it on its side or upside down), at which instance you'll likely then have to pick up or vacuum up all those teeny pieces from your work-area or floor (and replacing the device's plastic containment-bottom-cap, once its removed for emptying that little catch-bin isn't extremely easy).ALL-IN-ALL, the laminator-machine itself can hardly be beat for its simplicity and reliability with 3-mil & 5-mil sheets (I haven't tried sealing with any that are thicker).Just don't be too hopeful when you see the enclosed "Free 100 Laminating Sheets" card-offer enclosed with it!
