Review on MAKEASY Binding Machine: 21-Hole, 450 Sheet Paper Punch Binder - Perfect for Letter Size, A4, A5 with 100 PCS Starter Kit by Matthew Baltimore

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Maybe mine is broken?

My biggest problem is that the stem that holds the combs open isn't parallel to the stem that holds the rest of the comb, making it almost impossible to pick up documents properly to place the combs. Then when I finally did it didn't pocket the parts of the comb that stick out and hold the documents in the main body. Yes I did a try with hidden comb pieces first but my try document was thinner. For me, the cuts on the document were a little torn, even when pages were created one at a time with a smooth stroke. I use thick paper, but not that thick. The quality of the end product is not something I want to put my name on! So I plan to bring it back and have my calendars bound at a more expensive but much better printer. I've put too much time and materials into my art calendars to settle for a poor quality binding, but at least I tried.

Pros
  • Human design, light but strong
Cons
  • Slightly crumpled
