Comb Binding Machine, Book Binding,21-Holes 450 Sheets, Comb Binder Machine with Starter Kit 100 pcs 3/8'', for Letter Size / A4 / A5 Adjustable Edge Guide (Dual-Side Handle)

This item served its purpose.

This is exactly what I needed

This comb binder is basic, easy to use, and solid while being lightweight and portable. It is ideal for home, office, or school use to achieve a professional look for any book, booklet, or instructional manual project. The operating manual does not depict my model comb binder which is the dual-handle. This manual depicts a single, right-hand lever. The operating manual also does not mention or illustrate the margin guide at the rear of the comb binder. Other than the operating manual being very limited in information, the machine itself does what it should.

I make my own calendar for myself and family members. I use 12 sheets of card stock for each calendar. My new binding machine works great.

There is a small gap that pushes the paper through the hole punches. It never cuts them all completely, it only cuts on 3 sides of the hole punch. It appears to be related to the Margin Adjustment in the back of the unit. I am very disappointed. It mentions in the trouble shooting to look at the solution in the manual, but there is no manual. I am of the opinion that anything is fixable, however, it would probably take a CNC machine to fix this one. So, I'm returning it and purchasing another brand and not one that looks like this one either.

The machine punches paper but doesn't bind it. The holes don't work with the coils. Wouldn't recommend this, go with different style.

The machine was sturdy and it was a great price, but the paper kept getting caught on something when I punched the holes. (I did follow all of the pre-punching /prepping instructions.) It was also hard to tell if the paper was in far enough before punching holes. So sometimes it wasn't. This was my first horizontal punching binding machine. So what I did I learn? I prefer vertical punching over horizontal punching. I did return this one and purchased a vertical punching machine. It costs a lot more, but it works great.

Well, I like to print out stuff to read, but paper can get everywhere. This is a comb binder is a life-saver. It comes with all I need in one box!
