Review on πŸ“š Premium 9x11.5-inch Thermal Laminating Pouches/Letter Size/3 mil/200 Pack (LP200H) by Nuova by Ramon Hood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great alternative to branded laminators

Although at first I thought I liked the best laminating packs = 1) better than this product after looking at some previous laminating projects, this product is AWESOME. It's cheaper and I haven't had a single bubble in my lamination yet. I do both cut then laminate and laminate then cut projects for home use. I'm looking for a few things in laminating pouches: 1. Being able to "laminate and then cut" is great! There is no peeling of the laminate at all. I had to return Revain Basics lamination sheets as they were peeling. They were awful which is great.2. Thickness - Not all 3 mil packs are created equal. I find that Scotch brands are the thickest, while Nuova and Best Laminating Pouches are slightly thinner. Nuova seems to be a bit thinner than the best laminating pouches, but not by much (noticeable only when you stand next to each other and specifically look for it).3. Longevity - I get a lot of value from my projects with my little ones. These have held up great. However, I have to pull the sheet out of my laminator (tape) once it's over, otherwise the end of the sheet that stays too close to the heating element will start to warp. I haven't had this problem with other brands.4. sealing quality. Sealing performance is comparable or better than Scotch sheets. In all my projects I had very little space next to blank paper. Other brands (including Scotch) left a significant area unsealed next to the paper. I like being able to cut as close as possible while maintaining the print and these sheets excel at that. I absolutely recommend this product and will definitely buy it again. The two "cons" I've noticed are that they're a little harder to thread through my machine than other brands I've used (sheets seem to slide sideways) and I can't leave a sheet in the machine . Laminator as the heating element deforms the rest. They're a bit annoying, but not a problem for me.

Pros
  • Compatible with all brands of laminators
Cons
  • Long delivery time
