Texet A3 Laminator

I have had this laminator for 10 years! I bought it in August 2013, and today, after lots of use, the inner roller has decided to die and stop pushing the laminations through. I am so gutted as I love this laminator. I bought this in my 1st year of teaching and it's been with me since, from school to school. It gets used almost daily, all through the school year, and has never failed me! I feel like it's the end of an era! I am so impressed and pleased with it, that I am on here writing a review - before buying another one! The price is incredible, it's compact and so easy to use!

My old Textet laminator finally gave up the ghost and, after considerable research, I decided to buy this model. Although it doesn't have the facilities my old laminator had it wasn't a problem because I hardly ever used them anyway. I set to work to laminate 72 pages of A4 using 160 micron pouches. Once the machine was up to temperature it just worked with no fuss and completed the 72 pages in a reasonable time. It has been mentioned in other reviews that the speed is quite slow. I cannot argue with that but wonder if it needs to be any faster. It is a basic machine designed I would think for home use where speed is not necessary. Besides which since I was performing the task on my own, I was also having to prepare each sheet. I found that, by the time I had correctly positioned each sheet in its envelope, the laminating process for the previous sheet was about complete. Overall, this is a great little machine at a very low price and I would recommend it to anyone for low usage requirements.

Works great Does what it should

I've had this laminator for a while now, and despite a little difficulty initially, I've been very pleased with it. It laminates consistently and well. It's better than it's budget price might indicate, though some people have had issues with them which suggests quality control might be a bit hit and miss. If and when it does expire, I'll probably buy another one the same. UPDATE: I acquired another, very fancy business laminator (Fellowes Venus 2) , so I gave this Texet laminator to my Mum. Then after a few years, the new laminator failed, and as I didn't want to swipe the old one back off my Mum, I actually did buy another of these budget Texets. Having got used to the posh laminator, I miss the super-fast heat-up time, but that's it. The Texet laminates pretty much every bit as well, and while the Texet is slower to laminate, I find I don't really miss the extra speed of the business laminator, as it takes me a few seconds to align the page in the pouch anyway. One unexpected bonus of the Texet, is that the compact size and light weight of the Texet makes it so much more convenient to store and retrieve than my other laminator, which was a bit of a nuisance to set up as it was heavy. Based on my longer experience with the Texet, I've uprated my review to a solid 5. Highly recommended!

I'm new to laminating - I was keen not to purchase a white elephant, looking for a product with maximum flexibility options, reasonably compact quality laminator. The end purpose was to primarily laminate pictures and photographs up to A4 size. I trawled the internet and read countless desriptions and reviews. When I hit on A3 size laminator I thought 'why not'. Across the various product ranges out there, there were countless reviews describing rippled, wrinkled and jamming experiences which did leave me feeling a tad apprehensive. As it turned out I must have bought the right laminator - this one has a single roller, one switch and an indicator light. It's well put together and of a robust finish, suitable for home/small office use. I didn't need to use a cardboard insert, I presented each pouch square on feeding the closed end in first. The roller pulls through at a really manageable rate and will take from credit card size all the way up to A3. The whole operation was a breeze time after time, no jamming, no wrinkled or rippled finishes, just brilliant results. Needless to say I'm well pleased, nice price too!

It is ideal to laminate up to A3 size of leaflets. A bit slow to start from cold, though, you have to wait for around 6-7 minutes. Then you can obtain an A4 laminated pouch in just 20-25 second. You can also do 2, 3, 4... small laminated pouches at the same time

Bought for use at school where I work, as we are fed-up of waiting for others to do our laminating. Used regularly but not frequently (2 or 3 of times a week for a couple of hours) and is standing up well. Quite quick to warm up, but you do need to let it warm up so put it on before you need it. Ready light is not the easiest to see as you have to be at the right level and direction to see it easily, but this isn't really a problem. Easy to feed laminations through and they don't get jammed. Can use a variety of thickness of laminations but we tend to go for reasonably thin ones (80microns) and they come out well. Used with both A4 and A3 and equally good with both. Hasn't let us down yet.

Bought this for my daughter for Xmas, so tried it out to make sure it was OK. It is very simple to use, warms up very quickly & laminates perfectly, comes with a few free laminating pouches which is handy. Compact & reasonably lightweight. Prior to purchase I compared more expensive laminators - it was a gift so didn't want to be a cheapskate, but chose this one against more expensive models due to it's good reviews. Very good value item, I would thoroughly recommend.

Esta plastificadora es fantástica. La uso mucho y no me ha dado ningún problema desde que la compré. Plastifica de manera rápida y eficiente, dejando los documentos con un acabado profesional. ¡Estoy muy satisfecha con mi compra!

Perfetto

Ravie de cette plastifieuse (laminor) qui accepte les formats A6, A5, A4 & A3. Idéale pour la réalisation de sets de table, posters, pèle-mèle ou divers montages. Pour ma part, mes premiers essais ont été la plastification des recettes de cuisine imprimées que nous utilisons le plus souvent. Ma meilleure amie m'avait vantée les avantages de ce genre d'appareil, j'en suis ravie ! Les cartes cartonnees de piscine de nos petits sont restées sèches :-) Très simple d'utilisation, il suffit de la brancher, de l'allumer et de patienter une dizaine de minutes pendant la mise en température (voyant vert allumé dès que la bonne T°C est atteinte). Quelques feuilles sont comprises (80 µm). Après avoir glissé votre feuille à plastifier entre les 2 épaisseurs de plastique, il s'agit d'insérer l'ensemble (partie soudée en premier) et de laisser faire... En quelques dizaines de secondes, c'est terminé ! Comme tout appareil qui chauffe, des précautions d'utilisation sont à prendre. Eviter bien sûr que les enfants s'en approchent. Le rapport qualité prix est excellent pour une format A3. Je recommande +++

Excellent produit.
