I used to work in a Catholic College school back in my former country and our office was the one in-charge for making the ID's during enrolment. We have a laminator (a heavy duty one) that we used for IDs back when the digital IDs are still not around. Anyway, this laminator just brought back great memories when I was still working an office job in school.
When Shoplet informed me that I was one of the lucky ones to received this Saturn 3i 125 Fellows laminator, I got excited because you all know how I love to take pictures of my kids and having this will protect some of those precious moments in prints.
The set included a 10-oiece laminating pouches so I was able to test the machine right away. This small office laminator is perfect for my home office.
The first one I laminated is this picture. It's our family picture when our daughter had her first communion two years ago. I didn't put it in a frame so I thought of laminating it so that it will be protected.
Here it is coming out the other side of the laminator. Good memories came rushing in as I was laminating pictures. It did take me back to my office days era lol.
The kaminator is fantastic, it came out perfectly without any problem. So now that it is laminated, it won't be affected even if it got splashed with liquid or stuf like that.
Here are more photos I have laminated on that day. Our daughter's pinao recital photos.
I love how the laminator has a wide space in inserting the pouches. I just wish I have a special cutter that is specifically used for this kind of project but the scissor is good for now.
One more thing that I love about this set is the laminating roller ceaning sheet that they included. It is very important to clean the laminator after each use .
This Fellowes Saturn 3i 125 laminator features a rapid, one-minute warm-up with InstaHeat technology. You will hear the beep once it is ready to use. The 12-1/2" entry width accommodates multiple document sizes. It delivers hot lamination for 3 mil or 5 mil and cold setting for self-adhesive pouches. Release lever disengages pouch for re-centering or removal. The auto shutoff saves energy and also prevents overheating.
You can buy this at Shoplet for $202.82 with free shipping. Below are the five pictures that I laminated.
Shoplet have everything that you need for your business and home including office supplies, office stationary, promotional products, and many others such as medical supplies . Thank you once again Shoplet and Safco!
I have always taken stuff to Staples when I needed something laminated. How convenient to be able to do it at home. I need one of these.
ReplyDeletePersonal sized laminators are so handy sometimes. I used to use them at work on occasion.
ReplyDeleteWow, you got the product for free. Good for you. Yeah I agree, its best to laminate the photo and put it in a photo frame to last for a lifetime.
ReplyDeleteI always wanted a laminator and this looks like a good choice! Thanks for the recommendation.
ReplyDeleteWe used to have a laminator, and I used that thing to death. Literally. I killed it with use. I'd love to get another one.
ReplyDeleteHow awesome to have such a high quality laminator right in your own home! It makes preserving heirlooms and memories very easy.
ReplyDeleteI love all the uses of a laminator! My mom would always get my daughters pictures she drew laminated to save forever!
ReplyDeleteWow this is pretty cool device! Protects photos so they are preserved! Need this!
ReplyDeleteRaquel, I don't consider them free because I work hard on each ever review I make for products.
ReplyDeleteI would laminate everything in sight with that, lol. Seriously, I'd go nuts! I LOVE laminating stuff. It's almost as fun as peeling off the film on new electronics. I have Fellowes shredders, they make great products!
ReplyDeleteThat is really awesome! I would love to have a laminator in my house, it would be so useful! The Sautrn 3i-125 sounds awesome.
ReplyDeleteAs a homeschool mom I could definitely use a laminator. I usually take my things to a local teacher supply store, but I am betting I could save money by having my own!
ReplyDeleteThis would really come in handy for small laminating jobs! There are times when I wish I could have something laminated. That would be great.
ReplyDeleteWow, that looks pretty neat! I have been thinking about getting one of these. I may get this same one.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a very cool laminator. Great that you got that one. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome. I want one for homeschooling charts and such. I think they are so convenient! - Jeanine
ReplyDeleteThat is really cool. Any time I hear 'office supplies' I think of my son. He's just got a thing for them. It's funny. ;)
ReplyDeleteI don't think I would personally get a great deal of use out of a laminator, but there have been plenty of times when I wished that I owned one. I bet it would come in really helpful in many home offices.
ReplyDeleteIt would be great to have a laminator in the house. We would get so much use out of it.
ReplyDeleteI use my laminator all the time. I love printing out our menu for the week and other activities for my son and laminate them for crafts.
ReplyDeleteI was just using one of these at work, and it is really old and sooo slow. It takes forever to heat up. Maybe I'll show my boss this product ;) Thanks for the recommendation!
ReplyDeleteWe could put this to use in a lot of ways. The kids would love being able to make their crafts a lot more durable for one.
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice laminator. You can actually do a lot of crafty projects using that. :)
