Easy to Use Fellowes Laminator
After receiving the Fellowes Neptune3 125 Advanced 4-Roller Laminator. It was better than I expected. I read directions to set up. Only took a few minutes. True to its ad, it warmed up in 1 minute. I used a few pouches from the included Laminating Starter Pack. It did a beautiful job of laminating my Warranty Card and a sign for my Pool House in the back yard. Trimmed both to size and was very pleased with the outcome. There are unlimited uses for this machine. I would recommend this to anyone. I was kind of tired going to the office supply store to pay for laminating my items. I give this one 5 Stars!!

Great home laminator
This laminator takes just seconds to set up and use right out of the box and does a great job. Once it is plugged in and turned on it takes just a minute to warm up, so by the time you place your item(s) in the provided lamination pouch (a sample pack of 10 pouches is included with the unit), you are ready to go. The machine will beep and the auto button will go from flashing to solid green to let you know that it is ready to receive your pouch to laminate. Then you just carefully guide in the pouch straight into the unit until you feel it grab it and then it does the rest. The lamination process takes less than a minute to complete as it self guides your project onto the exit tray to cool (which it is barely even warm to the touch and is cool in seconds). The unit is quite wide and does require space not only in width, but a minimum of 20" behind the unit for the exit tray. So you need to make sure you have ample space to operate the unit properly. This unit is designed to use with pouches that are 3, 5, or 7 mil thickness, so is ideal for preserving photos, paper documents, or paper school projects for example. The unit is virtually silent when operating, but you will smell a slight melting plastic type odor when in use. The unit will also be warm to the touch on the surface, but is designed to not get hot enough to burn. The machine will go into a sleep mode if not active for 30 minutes and has the ability to preform a cold lamination instead of hot by changing the settings. Overall this is a great product and is very easy and fun to use.

    EXCELLENT MACHINE!
    I Love this laminator! I've always wanted one and I'm very impressed with it. Very easy to use. I expected instructions to be lengthy but it is very simple ~ turn machine on, put items in laminating pouch & put in slot. That's it! It takes less than a minute. It is 20" wide-4 1/2" high-4 3/4" deep with a detachable cooling tray on back (9 1/2" long). (note: need to leave 20 in. behind machine when using) INCLUDED w/Machine: 10 Laminating 3mm Pouches (9"x11.5") in Gloss. There are several guides on front for A3/Letter/Photo/ Auto Sense. The on/off button is in the back and there is a front button which tells you when it's ready...which takes no time. I used it immediately to preserve an old newspaper article that was turning yellow, an old wedding announcement, etc. It worked fast, well, quietly & did a wonderful job. The sheet was cool immediately & very easy to cut. As a professional office laminator, it would be great for IDs, documents, licenses, etc. and for personal use, it is just wonderful to preserve important papers, old news articles (births, deaths, announcements, photos, artwork, etc). I am very VERY impressed with this machine and highly recommend it. The potential is limitless. Start preserving your cherished papers.

    A Great Laminator
    I was so excited to use this laminator, but apprehensive to use it. My perception after opening the box, was that it would require a lot of instruction, and the laminator itself would be loud when in use. I was so wrong. The instructions were just a few pages, and really that is all that is required to start laminating. The machine is very quiet. it literally just buzzes through the pages. I run a business that requires tons of checklists on a daily basis, I would spend hours weekly copying, and organizing checklists. With the laminator I was hoping to be able to laminate and use dry erase markers, therefore eliminating the hundreds of pages I normally copy each week. It worked like a charm. It takes just a few seconds to laminate a page. So I started laminating family pictures. I laminated 50 plus pages in less than 30 minutes. It has settings for photos and various sizes. the laminator also has the option to use heat to laminate or cold laminating. I used the heat for all of mine, I thought it would seal better. There is a slight smell of hot plastic, but honestly the pages came out warm and perfectly sealed. There is a power button on the machine, and it also will go into sleep mode after 30 minutes of no use. For me, that is a great feature. I highly recommend this laminator!

    WOW! What a Product!!!
    I found the Fellowes Neptune3 125 Advanced 4-roller Laminator to be a fantastic product. It is a technological breakthrough. It is such a nice machine, I initially thought that the Laminator would be complicated to use. It has all the bells and whistles, blinking lights when it is ready and the option of hot and cold lamination. Even with all these extras, the Laminator is a dream to use. It is ready to use almost instantly and operates with just the push of a button. It is also whisper quiet. The laminated objects come out perfectly. From the very first thing I tried, it worked great. It automatically adjusts to several settings for different thicknesses of pouches from 3 mil. to 7 mil. It takes the worry and guess work out of it, for you. We started with some very old photographs that are irreplaceable. I am so excited with the Laminator. The possibilities are endless. The Laminator is a nice, very sturdy machine. That is one of the reasons I like it. That being said, I must mention it is a little on the heavy side. I am a 61 year old woman, and it is pretty heavy for me. You would want to put it in a stationary place and not move it very often.

    Get Ready, Get Set, Go Laminate!
    I am so impressed with this Fellowes Laminator. When the unit arrived, I was surprised how heavy the box was. I got the box inside and started to unpack it. It was well packed with no damages to report. I had it out of the box and ready to turn on in about a minute. One nice thing ... there is nothing to assemble! How is that in this age of having to assemble everything! I went for the Owner's Manual and read it through twice. I did find the manual more difficult to follow ... it could have been a bit more user friendly...because this thing is so easy to use it's nuts! Turn it on, push the Stand By button, wait for it to warm up (very Quickly). Insert paper into laminate sleeve with sealed edge heads first towards the feeding section. Slide sleeve in, and out comes your laminated treasure. I love how easy it is to use. Of course I have been laminating everything since I received the unit! You receive about 50 laminate sleeves and are available at Walmart. So, bottom line is if you want a high quality, well constructed and easy to use Laminator, you must purchase the Fellowes Neptune3 125 Advanced 4-roller Laminator...you will not be disappointed. Push the Buy Now button NOW!

    I love this machine!
    I took the Neptune laminator out of the box and began using it right away since I have wanted one of these for a long time. I was thrilled with the opportunity to try this one out. It is quiet and easy to operate. I like the size and weight of the machine. I had used another one before but was a very large commercial laminator which was difficult to use and took up so much space in the office. I was so please to find this Neptune was small and the outcome was amazing. I was so surprised to see the result of my first try with this laminator. Much easier and faster than I expected. When I showed a visitor the laminated picture I had completed, they were just awed as I was that such good quality came from this little machine. This laminator is very well built. The items laminated come out smooth and edges were completely sealed tight. It's definitely a good machine. It heats up quickly and the control panel is easy to operate. The Neptune 3 125 Laminator is a well-made, fast, and easy to use product that does exactly what it is meant to do. This laminator will use pouches up to 7 mil thick and 12.5 inches wide. I used a standard picture on copy paper to use as a ‘trial use' and it was perfect – not a hint of a bubble. My trial picture went through the machine very smooth and what comes out is a well-sealed project with no bubbles and no frayed edges. I cannot find any reason to complain about the quality of the job it does. I look forward to using it for photos. If I would have a complaint about this Neptune, it is minor – I worked over 30 minutes trying to remove the tape. I realize this is to protect the machine during shipping, but it came off in pieces. Maybe a different type of tape wouldn't be so hard to remove. But, overall, I love it and would recommend to anyone who would need a laminator for home/club use, this is it!

    Great for Business or Projects
    I never had a laminater before and wanted to test this product out. It was packaged securely with tape and plastic. Once I got it all together, I checked the instructions to set it up. It comes with laminating pouches and feed tray. At first, the instructions were difficult to read, since I only saw pictures, but found the step-by-step instructions to go with the photos. I inserted my business cards and flyers into the pouch and feed it through the laminater and soon had a warm sheet of laminated cards! I was impressed on how easy the process was and look forward to laminating more stuff! Great for outdoor flyers or homemade business cards. It can also do cold laminating, but doesn't say what's that for.

    A Big Step Up
    The Fellowes Neptune3 125 Laminator is really a great step up for my home. One of the best features of the Neptune3 is that it is ready to laminate in one minute. My old unit took about 5 minutes! The ability to laminate standard size paper up to 11”x17” is a fantastic feature for preserving documents or large presentation projects. This laminator auto senses the thickness of the laminating pouch. The directions state that the unit will properly laminate pouches 3mm to 7mm thick. It does recommend that the use of 3mm, 5mm, or 7mm pouches for optimal performance. Basically the operation consist of plugging in the unit, turning on the main power switch in the rear of the unit, the push the on button in the front and wait for the unit to signal ready. All that is left to do is place your chosen document in the appropriate pouch and feed into the laminator. Honestly, the hardest part of setting up the unit was putting on the wire exit tray. Hint: Place in the slot just below the laminate exit slit and press down firmly. I have been favorably impressed with the ease and speed of operation. This unit is perfect for my needs, but should you wish to use thicker than 7mm laminating pouches: Fellowes has an entire line of laminators named after planets and a couple of them can use thicker pouches. I would recommend this laminator for home or small office users.
