Review: - I fully recommend this Scotch product for non-commercial use (although I noticed ... - I have had this laminator for one year. I use this laminator "occassionally", not "commercially". My primary use for this laminator is for 8.5 X 11.0 sheets for large-print recipes printed on them for use in the kitchen and "no parking" signs in my alley. After one year I can report the following: - I fully recommend this Scotch product for non-commercial use (although I noticed my neighborhood pack-n-mail store uses the same product for their lamination for a dollar a sheet - so at 30 sheets I have paid for the unit!). - I have had no mechanical or electrical problems after one year use - light use. - I have had no problems laminating, say, 12 items one after the other. I have not tried to laminate 100 sheets in succession. Someone else reported overheating at 40 sheets. - You have to wait a few minutes for the unit to heat up before starting but it is just a couple of minutes, no problem. - It is for general/residential use/volume. It is not for commercial or high volume use. For instance, 500 laminated sheets would be an all day project to do (slow speeds and probably some "cool down" periods). - Yes, it has a slight smell from the heat as it "melts" the sheets into place. - I have had no problems with the sheets coming apart (just be sure to wait for the unit to reach full temperature before starting - the "ready" light comes on). - If you let the items sag as they come out then it will be permanently curved down. If you lift up on the item as it comes out it will be permanently curved up. If you hold it perfectly level as it comes out it will lay perfectly flat. If you allow it to come out on the desk/counter it will curve up slightly. I place it at the edge of my desk and hold the item perfectly straight as it comes out and it remains perfectly flat once it cools within seconds. It retains whatever curl it has or doesn't have as it cools within seconds. - The laminated sheets are impervious to water and soap (for instance, I use the recipe sheets in the kitchen and then wash them afterwards with zero problems, I also use them for "no parking" signs in the alley in the rain with no problem - perfectly tight lamination). I have not left them in the sun for extended periods of time to see what the sun would do to the lamination. - See the other reviews for class room use: apparently highly recommend for classrooms by the teachers and that seems very reasonable to me from my home use. I could see laminating 30 items for 30 students - great price for non-commercial use like this. I looked at commercial laminator units - I could buy and wear out 10 of these for the price of one commercial laminator. - desertcart has the best price I found after seeing this unit on desertcart and two or three brick stores. - I have had no problems with the sheets provided with the unit or with Scotch sheets purchased afterwards. I don't understand how others have had any problems with the Scotch brand products made for this Scotch brand unit. Am I missing something here? - Yes you can laminate thin or thick paper (say 18 to 24 pound paper and photographs easily). I have not tried poster board thickness but I wouldn't hesitate to do so - maybe give poster board a little extra room at the edges is all. - Yes you can trim it down. For instance, 5X7" pictures laminated for 8.5" X 11.0" paper then trimmed with scissors. I have had zero problems with the seal after trimming these down. Let the unit fully heat up before you laminate and then let it fully cool down before you trim it. It only takes seconds, not minutes, for it to completely cool down before you can trim it as you like. An extra 5 seconds of patience makes all the difference. - Read the little manual for hassle free usage. (duh!) - Warm up: I just tested it. It took 6 minutes to warm up in a 70 degree room with 3ml lamination selected. In that time I still haven't found my lamination sheets. I have never never found the warm up time to be a problem. I walk into the office to laminate, I hit the on button, and before I find my sheets and carefully insert my item the unit is ready for lamination. After that, I just leave the unit on until I am finished with my laminations for the day. It smells a bit like hot electrical wires - especially at the 3 minute mark after months of being turned off. - I would never leave the unit turned "on" for any length of time for safety reasons - I only turn it on when I need the unit. I basically turn the unit off when I', done with the job and leave my den. - The unit handles 3 ml sheets and 5 ml sheets. The 3 ml sheets seem plenty thick for everyday use. I have not used 5ml sheets yet. Not sure why I would ever need 5ml sheets - heavy duty garage usage maybe? I would probably let it warm up a little longer for 5ml just to make sure it is hot enough to melt the sheets together. - I have never really needed the "release" lever - when it drops the sheet it's done and ready for the next sheet. Wait, now I remember, I have used the "release" lever when I insert the item completely and utterly cock-eyed and I just want to pull the whole thing out and start over because it is going in at such a weird angle that it will soon jam at one edge or the other...duh! This is a human problem - not a product problem. Oh, by the way, I like the little "flip-down" entry door on the back with guide bars. Close it and it saves space. Open it (and use the guide bars!) and it works just fine to line up the sheets perfectly for entry. - Make sure you have your paper lined up inside the lamination sheets just as you want it before you insert the item for lamination - once you start, let it finish. If you have some "rare" item you are laminating I would practice first before laminating it. You could always cut it loose if you don't like the results such as placing your item in crooked or something. I have done this and all you do is cut it out and just toss one lamination sheet - no big deal, easy to do. - The cord is 5'3" long. It is not retractable but there is a place to wrap any extra length you may have. I just discovered this and wrapped up about a foot and half of extra cord length off my desktop. - Standard USA 120v two-plug, no 3rd ground plug required. - Made in China. - United Labs listed. - Off white color.
Review: easy to use - This unit is of the sort that you can plug in and use immediately after only a cursory review of the operating instructions. Very easy setup, very easy to select the variable thickness of the pouches available, and capable of doing 2 sheets at once (front/back) in the lighter pouch, if it is sent through on the thick setting. I and two friends used it about a dozen times right out of the box in a chilly basement, and it warmed right up and functioned like a champ. I have NOT been using it long enough to give a suitable use and wear review, but I anticipate no troubles. This is perfect for tabletop gamers, parents who want to make chores lists, businesses who need semi-permanent schedules, delivery persons who need a resilient route map, cooks who like to keep a 4x6 or 5x7 file of stain-proof cards, memorializing articles for long term keepsakes, or any other task that would benefit from use of a laminated cardstock, provided it is not substantially thick, and is 8.5 x 11 or smaller. I have not tested an alternate sized paper. Overall easy, good quality, well worth the price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the difference between TL 901,902,902E and 902SC?Are any of them have cold lamination or just a hot?**
A: I don't really have a definitive answer for you.  I know I chose the TL902 because it was the new version of the TL901 and had good reviews.  I believe you can cold laminate by merely selecting the lower heat setting for 3mm thicknesses and run the pouch through before it heats up. I don't recall if the rollers turn before you select a heat setting or not. This would work for one or two cold laminations before it heated up. I don't know what heat does to a cold lamination pouch. Guess you could find out.

**Q: Are the 20 included pouches 3mm or 5mm thick?**
A: They are 3mm. NOT 5mm.

**Q: Can you use one laminating sheet instead of a pouch in this machine?**
A: Scotch Brand Thermal Laminators are designed to be used with Scotch Brand Thermal Laminating pouches. We do not recommend using other laminating sheets or pouches. Thanks for asking! If you have any additional questions please feel free to contact our product support team at 1-800-328-6276 Mon-Fri 8am-4:30pm CT.

**Q: Can I use a carrier with this?  Will it fit?**
A: I am not sure what you mean by a carrier.!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Had this for 8 years!
*by Y***A on February 17, 2023*

For the most part, it worked as expected! We are a homeschooling family and I tutor, so I was getting a lot of use in the last 3 years. Yesterday I took it out to use and it never got hot. The light is supposed to turn blue when it's ready, but it never did. So sad. The feeding tray broke fairly soon after I got it. But I taped it up and it was fine. A bit annoying since I had to fiddle with it to get it to line up every time I used it. Other than that, it's a fairly good laminator.
