Fellowes Saturn 3i 95 Laminator Review

          This Fellowes Saturn 3i 95 Laminator was sent to me a few weeks ago from Shoplet to review for them.  Oh my goodness!  Who wouldn’t want their own personal laminator?  You might say I was a bit excited when I started to unpack it. 

         

           After I read the instructions, I quickly used the Fellowes Saturn 3i 95 Laminator to laminate some centers for my classroom.  There are four buttons on the front that you push to let the machine know how thick the pouch is (3, 4 or 5 mil) or another button (that looks like a snowflake) to laminate without heat.   When it is ready to use, a green light will appear behind the button you pushed.   It did not take long for the laminator to warm up... about a minute!   If you look closely you can see the green light on the 3 mil button!   Easy Peasy! 

      The laminator will accommodate various sizes of documents and there are pouches available for them!  When you are ready to laminate, place document inside the pouch.  Next insert pouch with the sealed edge first.  Make sure you use the markings on the machine so the document will feed correctly. Then...sit back and watch. 

        

          To catch the lamination as it goes through the laminator, there is a bar in the back that needed to be attached (easy to do)!   

          

          There is a red release lever on the back of the laminator that you can see in the picture above.  You will need this if there is ever a misfeed in the machine. I hope I never have to use it but it’s nice to know that there is a release button available to get the misfeed out if it happens.

         

          If you are like me, you have a tendency to forget things sometimes.   Luckily, this laminator has an automatic shutoff that will put it into standby mode after about 30 minutes of not being used.   I like this safeguard because it will save energy as well as preventing the laminator from overheating. 

          My school has a very nice laminator that I will use for most of my larger projects that need laminating.  However, I will definitely put this one to good use at home.  It is lightweight and easy to move from one place to another.  During the summer if I see something that I want to use in my classroom, I always print it... and now... I can laminate it immediately after printing.  Yeah!!!

          I found this laminator extremely easy to use and that is so important to me.  If you are looking for a laminator for small projects, or a small office,  you should definitely take a look at this one!

          I hope that you will give Shoplet.com the opportunity to fill all your needs for Office Supplies, Promotional Products, Medical Supplies, and Office Stationary.  Ordering is easy and they have a wonderful assortment of products!
