Customer Review: VL 125 User Review
Summary: 4 Stars
Received my laminator from Amazon today after only a 2 day wait.
Upon opening the instruction sheet there were two different sheets explaining about the need to remove the screw on the bottom before use and in the need to open the top to clear a jam. A previous reviewer on this page mentioned about earlier users not knowing about the bottom screw and returning their laminators as defective. Some confusion as to replacing the screw after removing it is expected as one sheet says to replace it after clearing a jam and the other sheet does not say to replace it. I left mine out with no problem.It can be a problem in some offices if you do not have a screwdriver handy at all times to remove and replace the screw if na jam occurs.
True to another reviewer, I found that this laminator had a srong burning rubber type smell when first starting up. It seem to lessen after about 15 mins. (or maybe I just got use to the smell)
The cooling fan is a bit loud (compare to my previous quiet GBC model) but not unbearable. To open the cover to remove a jam after the rollers are heated up took approx 15 mins to cool down before you could release the hinged top. I think that is way to much time if you are in the middle of laminating a rush job and your boss (and everyone else is waiting for you or for their turn to use the laminator.
There is a button with a circle arrow on the front right panel but nothing in the instructions state what it is for. After some experimenting with the button, I figured out that it is the reverse mode button. You have to hold it down the whole time in order to reverse your laminate if it was put in crooked. The main thing I do not like is that the laminator is always in the forward running mode unlike my previous model wich had a manual forward button. You have to be 100% sure that the laminate pouch is straight before starting to laminate, if not you have to be quick to hold down the reverse button to start again.
Overall it appears to be a good laminator albeit a big desktop footprint.
