Excellent Laminator
Had been looking for a decently priced laminator for the office for more than a year. This one was finally offered by COSTCO. Couldn't be happier. Quality of product is excellent and it is quick and uncomplicated. Not very noisy and has the features that I needed. Would definitely recommend.

Slow
This is not made for a grocery store that laminates signs on a daily basis. It is really slow and it did not heat up properly. Corners of signs would not seal correctly, even after letting heat for 5 minutes. Its made for small jobs and person use, not for a business that makes signs for an entire retail store daily.

Small but efficient
So far it seems to be working great. This was a replacement, and it is great for small office work.

Annoying Vertical Creases Down Both Sides, Jams
I just received this machine today, and have tried to laminate 3 documents, without success. The laminator works, but leaves a very visible crease 1-1/2" from one side and 2" from the other side. Additionally, when finished, the roller does not push the document out enough to prevent the edge from staying inside the machine and warping. I attempted to run one document t...

Best laminator for teachers
Being a teacher, I laminate everything for my classroom and students and this laminator is a life saver. I can laminate so quickly which is really important to me as I have so much to laminate daily. When purchasing a laminator it is important for me to know what width of laminating pouches it can use, the Fellowes Callisto 125 lets me use Menu size pouches. Those pouch...

Best Classroom Investment
Very efficient and easy to operate. All laminations came out smoothly. As a teacher myself, I laminate papers very often. Very good classroom investment.

Fellowes Callisto So Easy to Use
We replaced our 25 year old laminator with the new Fellowes Callisto 12.5 Thermal and cold laminator. No more waiting 20 minutes for the machine to heat up, no more cardboard holders. This machine is SO quick and easy to use.

Great for the Office
We had to replace our office lamination machine after the rollers broke and caused jamming and unworthy laminating, only a few short months of purchase. So that takes a few stars off for durability. Otherwise its a great product that produces excellent lamination.

Great quality at small price
Just received my new Fellowes laminator and couldn't wait to try it. It's very easy to use, quiet and the finish product is of a good quality. I will recommend this product to whoever is looking for a reliable machine at a good price.

Great product!
I use this laminator to create materials for students with special needs. It gets daily abuse and just keeps going. Very easy to use which is handy because we are usually using while working with kids and aren't exactly focused on the laminator!

Great Laminator
I bought this laminator because the one at my school was broken. It has worked great. It handles the amount of work that I need for my classroom. And what I like best about it is that the finished product is thick enough and lasts a long time. The school's laminator takes 15 minutes to warm up. My Fellowes laminator takes 5 minutes. I can work during my prep period and ...

Easy to install and got the job done. Would have liked information on pouch selection buttons but a test run answered all questions.

On 4/4/16 I received my new laminator, I tried it out and the document got jammed inside, after following the instructions on how to remove the document by using the reverse button, it was making a thumping noise, I called customer service and spoke to Dixie, she was great, she took all the information from me on the item and then she told me I could either return to th...

Simple and easy to use
I purchased this laminator to protect personal documents and to use occasionally for a volunteer position. It warms up quickly and is very easy to use. I am so glad that I made this purchase.
