GBC is the leading manufacturer of
laminating and binding machines, and with the HeatSeal H210 Pouch
Laminator, it’s easy to see why they’re the industry leader. The H210
is a terrific machine that’s ideal for the home or small office user
who’s looking to laminate letters, legal documents, photos, and other
items up to 8.5″ wide. The machine produces professional-looking
results and is easy to operate. And best of all, it’s very reasonably
priced, making this a fantastic choice for users who are on a budget.
GBC’s H210 consistently produces flawless, bubble-free lamination. The
machine makes it easy to laminate small documents (such as business
cards and standard 4 x 6″ photos), as well as larger items using letter
(9 x 11.5″) and legal size (9 x 14.5″) pouches, thanks to the
laminator’s 9.5″ throat. GBC has made this machine user-friendly by
including its patented ReadyGlo technology, which turns the laminator’s
throat green when the machine is ready to use. It only takes five
minutes for the machine to warm up, which is about average for this
type of laminator.
The H210 is designed for carrier usage, which prevents adhesive from
building up on the machine’s rollers, thus preventing pouch jams and
possible machine damage. A jam release lever is provided to help the
user quickly and easily remove the carrier if it should become jammed
in the laminator. This is a welcome feature and it makes the unit
especially easy to operate and maintain. A variable temperature setting
that allows for cold laminating is also included. The H210 also
features a modern design that will complement any home or office decor,
and it’s small enough to fit on any desk. The machine also comes with a
limited two-year warranty.
The H210 does have a couple of minor drawbacks which do not make it an
excellent choice for heavy-duty users or commercial finishing
applications. First, the H210 can only handle pouches that are 3mil or
5mil thick. Organizations that need to use thicker pouches will have to
choose a different machine. Also, the H210’s 9.5″ throat is not
recommended for use with long side-sealed letter laminating pouches
because it’s important to feed pouches into a laminator sealed side
first. The H210 also can’t laminate large documents, such as those
measuring 11 x17″ (A machine with a 12.5″ or 13″ throat would be needed
to laminate those type of items). Most home users won’t need to
laminate large documents and posters. However, the size limitation is
definitely something to consider before purchasing this machine.
Finally, the H210 has a rather small exit tray that’s barely big enough
to hold a standard 8.5 x 11″ document. If you are laminating more than
a few sheets of paper you will most likely need to remove the items
from the exit tray as you go.
While the H210 may have a few shortcomings, it’s really a moot point
because this is a laminator that’s marketed towards users who are
looking for a well-built, entry-level machine to fulfill basic
laminating needs. And on that level, the H210 is a winner. This is a
great machine at a great price for the basic home or office laminator,
and it handles basic types of laminating projects beautifully.
