Disappointed by baahstun (Syracuse, NY)  1 Stars
February 22, 2009
We decided to buy this laminator after lots of research on various brands. This unit has some nice features such as it opens for cleaning, has an auto reverse de-jamming feature, has 4 rollers and also has the adjustable temperature settings. Some reviewers talked about this being a good laminator for heavier card stock and pouches, which we laminate mostly 110 card stock in 5 mil pouches. As far as our usage, we run 50-100 covers at a time on an average of every 4-6 weeks or so. So, we decided to give the Fellowes Jupiter JL125 a try.
The first one arrived and was awful. First off, there was a rattle like something was broken off inside the unit. Secondly, using the 110 card stock with 5 mil pouches, they kept coming out the exit chute wavy, warped and the ends were curled upward. I tried turning the temperature down which made no difference. I then tried standing directly over the laminator and used my fingers to gently "walk" the sheet along through the exit chute and then immediately pulling it out once it felt like the rollers had let the sheet go. That solved the curling at the ends but not the warping and waviness throughout the card stock. So, I called Fellowes. They thought the unit sustained shipping damage and had us send it back to Amazon, who was phenomenal by issuing us a return shipping tag and immediately sending us anther one via 2nd day shipping. The second one arrived without any inside rattle and the unit was as quiet as can be. We set it up, turned it on and low and behold...all the same problems as listed above with the first unit! Still wavy, warped card stock. Tried all the usual stuff with adjusting temperature, babysitting the card stock through the machine and exit chute, all of which ended up with the same results as before. Spent yet more time on the phone with Fellowes and their suggestions did not resolve the problems.
So, we sent it back and now own a GBC H212 and are SO happy with it and between the sale price along with rebate, it cost 1/3 the price of the Jupiter. So, off to post a positive review on the GBC H212!!
Also a side note for those with sensitivities. Both Jupiter units were very pungent and will require consistent usage at hot temperatures over a period of time to sufficiently offgass. In other words when the units are heated up for use, they emit a very strong noxious smell that will take time to go away.

STURDY AND IMPRESSIVE by R. Fleming (San Jose, CA)  5 Stars

I just received this this laminator and was very impressed with its sturdiness. We have one at work and this unit has more options (i.e. size of pouches). A major plus is you can open the laminator to clean it. I recommend this to anyone who wants a good sturdy laminator. I payed a little extra for this model and an happy I did. In my experience, Fellowes usually makes very good, reliable business machines.

Laminator by Charles Gillenwater (Chicago, IL) 5 Stars
October 30, 2008
This is an excellent product, and even much easier to use than other models. For a small business office, that only does a reasonable amount of laminating, this is ideal. It even has adjustable heat which is terrific if you switch from say badges to sheets needing laminating. I say if you have need of laminating in a small office, this is the model for you.

If all laminating pouches were the same, you would simply make your purchase decision based upon price alone. Unfortunately, purchasing bargain laminating pouches can often cost you more due to poor adhesion, excessive waste and the cost to re-print and re-laminate your project. The major differences in laminating pouches are the quality of the EVA resin, polyester, and the quality and consistency of the manufacturing process. Lamination Depot thermal pouches are manufactured using only DuPont...
