SINCHI 3-10 mil Commercial Laminating Machine, Heavy Duty, Never Jam, 48-Second Warm-up, 40 Inches/Minute, 13-Inch Thermal Laminator Machine with Laminating Sheets for Office and School

I love this laminator. I had an issue with my first machine, but the company was super responsive and sent another one immediately. No issues with the new one. I use the thickest setting-10 mil pouches.

I had previously been using a cheap laminator that I bought at a big box store. I thought it did an okay job, but it was annoying that it took so long to warm up, so I ended up buying this SINCHI laminator and WOW, what a difference! Not only does it heat up quickly, it can do sheets up to 10mil, it hasn't had a single jam (I use it a LOT for my small business), and the results are so much better than my old laminator. There's no comparison. I'm actually kind of embarrassed when I see my older items made with my old laminator. This one does such a great job.Also, when I first got the laminator it was missing the metal supports for the back where the sheets come out. I had a hard time getting a response from Amazon customer service, so I went to the SINCHI website and found an email for Charles with their customer service. He responded so fast and let me know that they have a 12 month warranty against manufacturing defects and he had them send me 2 sets of metal supports from their plant in China. I received them in under two weeks and they work great. It wasn't a huge deal that they were missing in the first place, but it does work better with them there. I was really impressed with their customer service and the next time I need another laminator I'll be buying a SINCHI again for sure.

This is my first laminating machine so I didn't know what to expect. I'm happy with the results. No setup needed, just turn on back & front power button, choose your laminating sheet thickness, wait for about a minute to warm up and you're ready to go. I laminated 650 pieces 8.5 x 11. I used 80lb 216gsm card stock & 3 mil laminating sheets. Once I inserted the cardstock into the sheet, I smoothed out the sheet to remove air/bubles and put into the machine. Came out smooth each time - no bubbles. It takes me about 1 minute per page (8.5x 11) from when I insert the page to finish laminating. The machine is loud as mentioned in other reviews, and it's loud when you first turn on, after a while, it's not as loud . I shutoff the machine after 2 hours or so to take a break & give machine a break to cool down. No jamming for 650 pieces. Only a handful of pieces curled at the one end corner (I don't know why), but I just flipped the piece over & ran it again and came out flat & perfect. Overall, excellent machine for this price point.

Easy warm up with easy logic of use . The unit is not that noisy considering its a commercial grade unit, so it’s pleasant to run and keep running while prepping the next run

We have used many laminators over the past 20 years, and this is probably the easiest, most effective, and most cost effective one to date. Employees have destroyed $200 laminators multiple times due to the complexity of their operation, and cheaper "office supply store" models don't laminate well.This model is unique because it has one temperature setting, but changes speed for different film thickness. As such, you don't need to wait for cool down or heat up if you are changing thickness.Limited use so far has been very successful. I highly recommend this laminator.

This is my third laminator this one has all the bells and whistles and works well. it has a lot of settings and it quite quick. its noisy but I excected that becuase of the previous reviews and it does not bother me. It excels at laminating thicker paper. word of warning it comes with a thick paper that is meant to help clean the rollers and instructions to do this quite often every few lamination jobs. be sure to do that. because if you don't the laminator will have jamming. I ended up jamming a few items the first time i used it after an hour. be sure to make sure its clear before you add anything into the laminator. I was able to fix it easily although I did mess up the cleaning paper that came with the device. I was able to find a piece of similar paper in my house to use. the machine has 2 power buttons. one that you must flick on at the back after you turn it on. I am not sure why it works this way but there are instructions to not forget to flick the 2nd switch and another set of buttons that you can adjust the settings there is even a reverse button. I wish I had upgraded to this machine a year ago. Keeping fingers crossed it works well for a long time to come. Ive used it 6 times so for for an hour at a time.

Very pleased. It heats quickly. The buzzing noise is not as bad as I thought and actually serves as a reminder to turn it off. I’ve only used 3 mil so far and it goes through quickly and seals well. Unit is sturdy and grips table, but is easily portable. I am using the cleaning card as directed and have had no jams. I like the wide opening and being able to feed the pouches through the front.

The media could not be loaded. This laminator does make noise but it was not as loud as I was expecting. I make a ton of stickers for my business and so I was needing and strong well built laminator and this is it. When reading to reviews I was expecting this to be insainly loud however it's to me at least my silhouette is louder than this. I was glad I read one review because it alerted me to the fact there are 2 power switches.
