Fellowes Thermal Laminating Pouches, ImageLast, Jam Free, Letter Size, 3 Mil, 150 Pack (5200509), Clear

Good clear lamination that is flat after laminating. I was concerned that the watermark on the lamination would show through, but after going through the laminator they did disappear. The big problem was that most of the pouches had creases on them. I thought they would disappear when laminated. I was wrong. The creases turned into raised lines across the lamination distorting the images below. Because I sell these charts, I could not use them. My customers would return them. Of the 75 or so I laminated so far, I tossed half of them. What a waste of time and money. Glad I only bought one pack. I have been laminating charts for 12 years. This was the first and last time for Fellowes.

Very helpful and useful for many craft projects.

Love these. Work great with our laminator.

So fun to laminate derogatory signs. They come out PERFECT each time. Hah. All jokes aside, these work as expected and make building management a bit easier. :)

Great

Have to use these to laminate menus for my husband and classroom signs for my art-room. They have been perfect for both.

I really dont have presentation needs or whatnot for these pouches. To be perfectly honest, my Fellows Cosmic 125 kind of just stands compactly out of the way most of the time, to the point where Im thinking, Why do I have a laminator again? --- and then I need it, again. A few days ago I laminated a bread machine baking chart for a quick cheat sheet so I dont have to reference the manual again and again, also a proof of insurance for my wallet, since the paper printout from the website had gotten tattered. Yes, 3 mil is very thin, but it is also surprisingly sturdy over time. If the material I am laminating is flat, and if I am careful to use a carrier sheet when using one pouch for multiple small items, I see zero bubbling or other marring. (Just be sure to have enough margin around EACH item to cut up without separating the lamination layers. Idiotically, I kept making the same mistake early on of cutting *through* the laminated papers rather than trimming before laminating. Dont do that. You can get cheaper per-sheet, but Ive seen cheaper per-sheet in my kids classrooms in the past. Okay but often a little less bubble-free or a little more prone to separation. Oh, and a PSA: Remember to clean your rollers! - no brand of laminating sheets can compensate for dirty rollers in a laminator, and how hard is it to run through a cleaning sheet?

We used to have a roll-based laminator which was great for longer signs but they dont make the rolls anymore so we switched to a pouch-based laminator and have not been disappointed. These things work great. My only complaint would be that for smaller projects where you only need a couple of little things lamintated, youve got to use the whole sheet and that creates a lot of waste. They make other sizes of pouch so I wont change the score for the product because what it is has worked for us fantastically so far. Bubbling has been kept to a minimum and theres been no edge skewing or separation when cutting or otherwise.

These work very well with the Fellows laminators. They are easy to handle when out of the box and easy to put your paper in. They laminate well and do not bunch up, crease or fold, so your laminated paper looks professional.

GREAT price! You wont find anything cheaper. They work great for all my laminating needs. Durable and thick, but not so that they make cutting with scissors hard. Exactly what I needed. Plus it comes with a ton! As an SLP, I use laminating sheets daily and these have lasted me quite some time.
