I'm beginning to think it would be a good idea to get one of these as it's costing me a fortune to get posters laminated etc plus it takes me ages to remember to take them into town to get them done. Can anyone recommend me one? I have no clue about these sorts of things!

Thanks x

I bought the Asda one, but within a week it was chewing up the pages & crinkling everything up.

I still haven't got round to taking it back, but I'll swap it & hope I just had a dodgy one.

Mine died last week - and I'm already missing it! :(

Ours lasted about 5 years, so we did well out of it.
Its a Rexel one and we got it from Costco.

- when you get one, you'll be laminating anything that doesnt move! - keep moving kids!! :)

I love my laminator :clapping: I think it came from a stationers like Rymans. Was about £20, or a few pounds under, with some free laminating sheets thrown in too

mine's a ryman it's great cost about £20.00

it does have a button on the back so if things get stuck you can press button to un- roll it ( hope i explained this right)

if your laminator is chewing things up try putting a sheet of paper through, as it may have a bit of glue from a pouch stuck on one of the wheels
