MAKEASY Spiral Binding Machine, 4:1 Pitch, 12 Sheets Punch Capacity, Electric Coil Insert, Book Binder Machine for A4/A5/Letter Size Paper, Come with 1 Box pcs 5/16'' Coils & Pliers

The machine was very user friendly. Sturdy and well made. Easy operation. Comes with everything you need to get started. No need for the more expensive ones. Our books look great!

For now, 5 stars! Have no idea about longevity, and I have no experience with binding machines to compare features. But for being a less expensive one than some, I’m sure it may not have some bells and whistles. But my first attempt was a total success. I had a paper bound planner cut, laminated, and spiral bound at the local print shop at the beginning of the school year. And it was fine. But the spiral was so big, the planner flopped around so much. The laminating was also not trimmed, and with a lot of use was also coming apart. I did not buy this binder for this job alone, but rather to take matters into my own hands going forward, and attempting to fix the current planner was project number one. I already have a laminator. So I took off the old binding, trimmed the margin of the the old cover, re-laminated it, and used the binder to punch new holes. I did not use the power spiral part, because I did not start the coil at the very end of the holes, and I wasn’t sure if it would work as well. The reason I didn’t start the coil where the holes began on my new cover, was because the holes did not go all the way to the edges of the pages from the previous job, and I did not want to risk (or go to the trouble) of re punching the whole planner. This coil is not one that came with the binder. I ordered separately. The crimper has a little learning curve, because there were basically no instructions, and you most definitely can cut without crimping or crimp it the wrong direction. So look up a couple YouTube videos and o learn that part. I’m so very happy with the outcome. Hopefully now this planner with survive to the end of the school year. 😅 Excited to try more projects now. Oh, and the templates to use for making sure there is no grease on the puncher before you do your real jobs was really great for practice runs anyway! The first couple times were a little crooked so it was good to try a few times before jumping in.

Works very well! Punches nice & clean. Seems extremely well made & durable! Very handy for homeschooling!

This MAKEASY binding machine works really well—easy to use, punches cleanly, and the electric coil inserter is a huge time-saver. It would’ve been a 5-star product, but one of the feet was missing from the base, which made it wobble. Other than that, it's a solid machine for binding projects!

I should have gotten this sooner. I’m a homeschool mom and we print a lot of educational materials. This binding machine is amazing and works great! I had been paying for someone to bind my items but now I can do it myself! If you bind anything these are fabulous!!!

This was wayyyyy easier to use than I expected. It did a great job of creating books. It seems to be extremely sturdy and it was accurate as to where the holes were.

Espectacular maquina y es maravilloso que traina un set muy grande de espirales y la herramineta pinza para terminar los extremos. muchas gracias. muy buena

This is a piece of junk. Will not work on 8.5 inch long paper. Used it to make 6 small notebooks. Several of the punches quit working. Too cheaply made.
