Fellowes 5216901 Quasar 500 Electric Comb Binding System, 16 7/8 x 15 3/8 x 5 1/8, Metallic Gray, Alloy Steel

I want to thank my husband for making me but this binding machine. It has saved me many days of arm pain. I can now make my booklets with easy.

works great saved me about 12 hours of work, punched 20 to 25 pages with accuracy and binding aligned perfectly. Well built and easy to use.

I totally wish I had purchased this a long time ago as it is worth the money. Great machine, sturdy, a little heavy (no complaints at all just giving a review), well built, fast, easy to use. If you have ever used a manual binding machine, you know how long it takes to punch and bind. After one use you will not go back to manual unless your power goes out. Capable of punching and assembling as you go. Totally like the tray that holds the binding combs. Nice feature so that I don't have to keep the box on the table. This machine is so easy to use I had help from a sixth grader who after a little supervising and instructions was able to do it on her own. Just make sure that your paper sits all the way down inside the punching area. Use the line on the lid is your guide that the paper sits down properly. The edge of your paper should be flush with the line on the lid. I highly recommend to anyone who is considering purchasing this machine

Upgraded from manual one to this one Electric version made everything so easy We used manual one long years I was little hesitated to purchase electric model first because I though it will get stuck and will go to garbage but works flawlessly so I am very happy with this purchase

I use these binding machines to bind books at work. This is my 5th machine in 12 years. I have always gotten this brand and type of binder. This is the worse binder yet. It does not have the spine adjustments on it that the machine used to have, and the holes are way to close to the edge of the paper making the books tear up easily. It says you can put 20-25 pages in it at a time....NOT...you can only bind 15-16 pages at a time or it gets stuck. It does not bind the plastic front and back covers well at all. It never cuts all of the pieces off, I have to go back and cut them off. This machine slows me down at my job tremendously when binding books, which I do quite often. Do not buy this machine. I would have returned it if I was not past the return window already

This is a great machine. I have used this machine for the last 6 months or so, once a week I make books of a couple hundred pages covers about 20 at a time, and I use 1/2 inch combs . This takes me about 3 or 4 hours, start to finish. It's easy to use and the only problems I've had turned out to be user sloppiness. I recommend this machine, works great, was delivered fast as promised.

The machine works great to punch holes in paper, but when I try to punch holes in the plastic front and back covers it does not punch through completely. I have to cut the remaining pieces off, but I'm not able to fully remove the pieces so there are sharp edges on an otherwise professional looking product.

Excellent purchase very easy to use

I'm a court transcriptionist, so lots of printing and binding in my life. Wish I'd gotten one of these YEARS ago!

Simple and easy to use. My wife has bad arthritus and this electric machine has been a God send.

This binding machine was not available when I ordered it, but it shipped and arrived within a couple of weeks, which was great. It's heavy, but that helps to keep it from moving around on the desk. Works exactly as described, and will accommodate other manufacturer's binding combs, including Staples. Operation is fast, smooth and quick. No setup required, other than to take it out of the box and plug it in. Modern look, fits nicely in my office, and I like that the top folds down to hide the machinery teeth when not in use. Happy!

Makes my job so much easier--less labour intensive

Perfect
