Sleek and Stylish, Quality Lamination Machine

Fellowes Venus 2 125 Lamination Machine It came very well packaged in factory box. It had two foam inserts on each side to keep it stable. The machine was inside a moderately loose fitting bag and the three prong power cord was packaged in a smaller bag and taped to the front to prevent it from moving. The rear feeder tray was packaged in its own plastic bag and placed in front of several papers and a re-sealable bag that contained the User's Manual and a Registration card. In another package it contained 10x 3 mil lamination pouches. It contained a helpful tips sheet as well. It was very simple to set up. Make sure receiver tray is a minimum of 20” away from the wall before using. The machine turns on in the back and goes through a function check before it starts heating the cycles. It has three cycle options. Standby, auto with heat and cold. It also has a reverse button. It can do up to 10 mil lamination pouches. I used the heat cycle and one of the provided pouches and laminated the Helpful Tips and Tricks paper for longevity. It takes about 30 seconds, or less for it to heat up. It is cool to the touch when hot. If the blue light is showing it will be a cold lamination. Green for hot. Wait for the lights to stop blinking and green on the thickness you want. Then all you do is stick the paper in the lamination pouch and flatten it out. Feed the item in through the front as centered as possible. Watch it as it rolls through and once it is out on the back, remove it promptly to avoid a possible roller jam. The manual states that the item night be hot upon removal. The item was not hot for me to the touch. However, I highly recommend that you take heed of the warning anyway. Especially with the thicker items. The machine is quiet, doesn't heat up the surface it is sitting on, and works quickly and smoothly. I highly recommend this product. It seems well made and it's a very sleek and stylish design I would be proud to display in my office. You will not be disappointed. It has a sheet to call for help if you need it.

Great Laminator

I am doing a review on the Fellowes Venus 2 125 Laminator. It looks really professional and expensive. It looks to be made very solid and sturdy. It needs a lot of space. It is really large. It is 21.3" Depth x 8.2" Width x 5.1" Height. This would look good in a doctor's office. When you turn it on it takes it just 30 to 60 seconds to warm up. It comes with 10 3ml pouches. It will accept pouches thickness up to 10ml. I am very impressed with the 3ml which I used. I can't imagine what a 10ml would look like. I am going to have to get some. You can buy those online. The opening where you put the laminating pouches is 12.5" wide. It will accept smaller widths than that too just not more than that. I wanted to see how it worked so I made some of my own bookmarks and ran them through the pouches into the machine and they were great. I did not expect it to be that easy and turn out that well. Once you run it through it will come out of the back on top of a tray. You must immediately remove it and place on flat surface or it will curl. I also laminated a coloring page that my daughter drew and want to save it forever. I do believe it will with this laminator.

Read Set Go! Its Laminating Time

Easy set up right out of the box, I plug the machine into outlet and put the exit tray to the rear of the machine. The instructions are easy to follow. The pouches that come with machine are letter size, make sure you place items properly inside the sealed edge of pouch even if the item you are trying to laminate is smaller than pouch make sure you insert it snug against the seal edge, you can cut the excess off later, I laminated a front/back copy of my lists of foods rich in the 13 Essential Vitamins and the portion plate on back, I had to run it through the machine twice and it gave me a perfect lamination. I laminate some photos too it came out perfect in just one try. I am enjoying this Laminator! Spring is in the air, I have started to search for back ground pictures to print and laminate my very own patio place mats and coasters for drinks. Get your creative juices flowing, ready set go it laminating time, need a mouse pad for my desk and a picture to put in my bathroom. You can do so many creative things. This machine is heavy and should be place on a stable surface.
