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.
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.

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.
Personal sized laminators are so handy sometimes. I used to use them at work on occasion.
Wow, 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.
I always wanted a laminator and this looks like a good choice! Thanks for the recommendation.
We 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.
How awesome to have such a high quality laminator right in your own home! It makes preserving heirlooms and memories very easy.
I love all the uses of a laminator! My mom would always get my daughters pictures she drew laminated to save forever!
Wow this is pretty cool device! Protects photos so they are preserved! Need this!
Raquel, I don't consider them free because I work hard on each ever review I make for products.
I 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!
That is really awesome! I would love to have a laminator in my house, it would be so useful! The Sautrn 3i-125 sounds awesome.
As 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!
This would really come in handy for small laminating jobs! There are times when I wish I could have something laminated. That would be great.
Wow, that looks pretty neat! I have been thinking about getting one of these. I may get this same one.
Looks like a very cool laminator. Great that you got that one. Thank you for sharing.
This is awesome. I want one for homeschooling charts and such. I think they are so convenient! - Jeanine
That 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. ;)
I 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.
It would be great to have a laminator in the house. We would get so much use out of it.
I 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.
I 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!
We 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.
That's a nice laminator. You can actually do a lot of crafty projects using that. :)
