OMG! WHAT A FAIL! DID NOT EVEN COMPLETE THE FIRST LAMINATION! SMELL OF SMOKE AND A PRICELESS PHOTO IS GONE!
OH my God! This thing is flat out dangerous. The first project, THE FIRST, It malfunctioned and ruined a priceless photo of a dead relative! The photo was actually a newspaper clipping! I am so mad it's beyond words! I followed the instructions to the letter. After a few minutes the motor started to grind and pop, I smelled smoke and nothing! Even the release lever was inoperative because it project never came out of the machine! Apparently it just wrapped around the rollers! As you can clearly see from the 3rd photo, something is STILL inside the unit melted to some metal part and not on the roller itself!
I AM EXTREMELY GLAD I DID NOT WALK OUT THE ROOM! I'm sure it would have caught fire!
