Q: If I have creases in something that I have laminated, is there a way to get the creases out?

submitted by Michelle - 9 years ago

  • A: Usually this means the device isn't all the way heated. Wait a bit longer for it to heat up and that should take care of the creasing.

    submitted byappleofmyeye - 7 years ago

  • A: Typically no, I've tried to re-run it amd sometimes that helps but not much.

    submitted byHillless - 9 years ago

  • A: We recommend that you connect with our product support team at 1-800-328-6276 Mon-Fri 8am-4:30pm CT so we can gather details and assist. Thanks for asking!

Q: can you laminate legal size documents in this laminator

submitted by cmh - 2 years ago

  • A: a legal sheet of paper is 8.5" x 14" so it would work with this machine as long as you have the proper laminating sheet size

    submitted byaustexjim - 6 months ago

  • A: The brand expert says yes, but the machine is 9" and the narrowest side of a legal document is 11". Make it make sense.

    submitted byLala - 7 months ago

  • A: Hello - Thank you for asking. Yes, you can laminate legal size documents with this laminator. You would need to purchase the legal size thermal pouches.

  • A: I have one and have used it extensively for 5 years or more. It is starting to creak a bit, so I'm ready to buy another just like it. Can't be beat for the price!

    submitted byaustexjim - 6 months ago

  • A: I bought mine today and it has yet to accomplish any tasks, so that may explain the price.

    submitted byMatt - 6 years ago

Q: how long does it take to heat the machine before you can start laminating?

submitted by jennie - 9 years ago

  • A: Just a few minutes. I've never timed it but if I plug it in and then get my things ready to laminate, it's usually heated up by the time I'm done.

    submitted bySteph - 9 years ago

  • A: Mine has been running for 30 minutes and it still isn't hot enough to do anything.

    submitted byMatt - 6 years ago

  • A: The TL902 Thermal Laminator should heat up in under six minutes. Thanks for asking!

    Useful Item

    I like how quickly this heats up and has the option for 3 mil and 5 mil. The loading tray is a little flimsy and cumbersome to take out and out back but otherwise it works great

    Broken out of the box

    Would give zero if i could. Out of the box, brand new and it doesn’t advance. I waited until the ready was on and tried changing the mil and nothing. It heats up but doesn’t advance the sheets.

    Broke after two uses

    Had it for one day worked fine for me to laminate 2 sheets, then a few days later it broke from the inside and won't feed any of the laminate paper through and I can hear pieces of it rattling inside of it. Very disappointed.

    Easy and effective!

    Easy to use and worked like a dream! Used it to make a stroller tag for our family Disney trip - way more cost effective than buying one off Etsy! Can't wait to use it for other kid-related projects!

    Dumb tray

    While it works fine once you get it working, the tray design is awful at best, with no directions how to open it. If you are wondering how to open the stupid tray, and are afraid of breaking it, YouTube it.

    Terrible design

    I purchased this product with the refund from my previous laminator’s recall. The first few uses were fine. I began to notice that it was not heating properly and causing my projects to have bubbles and waves. Then the tray broke when I was putting it away, rendering it useless. The tray design was a concern from the beginning. It’s not large enough to place an entire letter size sheet on and moving it from closed to open and open to close is harder than it should be.

    Zero stars....not recommended

    This is my 3rd one. First one broke after 2 months, and the second and third jam up every use no matter the thickness of the product or laminating sheet. Very frustrating and a huge inconvenience when you're trying to get things done.

    Do not recommend this laminator!

    This laminator was awesome for about six months, then it just started jamming and ruining all of my laminating projects. I purchased this one to use at home for little laminating jobs for my classroom, and it barely gets used. The older one in my classroom is used daily and still works great. This is very disappointing. I followed all the directions to get it unjammed, but I had to disassemble the whole thing to clear the jam... and then it happened repeatedly. I only use the Scotch pouches and have followed the directions for laminating. There is no reason this should be happening to this more expensive and newer machine.

    [Employee of 3m-scotch] I purchased this laminator after switching from a non name brand one and it was a big mistake. The tray to insert the laminating sheets won’t stay up and it is a huge pain things constantly get jammed.
