MAKEASY スパイラルコイルバインディングマシン 46本の完全に外れるピン付き - 4:1ピッチ - 電動コイルインサー - 調節可能なサイドマージン、無料の1ボックスコイルスパイン&プライヤー、20シートパンチ容量

Got this spiral coil puncher and binding machine to make my own covers for my Erin Condren spiral planner. I couldn't find any other hole punchers that were more affordable that punched the same holes. It works well and was able to punch covers that had 2 layers of 3 mil laminate on them without getting caught. It cut through like butter. Very nice! Super easy to use. Size is large, but that's okay, it is able to punch all different sizes of paper, so far I have used it for A5 and Letter sized paper. It is quite heavy and sturdy. Great value for what you get - it also comes with plastic spiral coils and a crimper plier to be able to make your own notebooks. I made 1 notebook already. I think for the skinny coils, you will need to set the holes to punch closer to the edge of teh paper, otherwise it is hard to turn the pages if the holes punch with a larger margin. I specifically use this hole punch to work with my Erin Condren Daily Duo Life Planner 7x9 size. It works perfectly.

I only used one other one where I worked and it was terrible. This one is awesome. Firstly, there is a solid back stop which assures your paper is square. There are both in / out and side to side adjustments which work good. Unlike some others the lever pushes on both sides which eliminates internal stress and I believe will keep its alignments over the years. Best part, if you look at the pictures you see the silver things sticking out? Those are the punches. It doesn't punch all the holes at once, but rather in order from both outsides in. It's easier to punch than a 3 holer, and when the outsides are punched, the paper is locked in place. Perfect engineering! The powered roller that inserts the binding spring is well thought out and works well too. This thing is a bit on the big and heavy side. Looks and acts professional. I am glad I bought this one. Punching 42 holes in one pass through 20 sheets is a bit of pressure. This handled it nicely. Something else, if by some chance you punch something it doesn't like and jams, pull the pins on the not yet punched holes (they slide forward a bit) and work the handle to free the stuck pin. I haven't needed that feature. YET 😀

This machine is easy to use; the instructions are clear and simple to understand. The machine is lightweight, so easy to move around if necessary. the instruction booklet has a video link on how to operate the machine as well. I cannot speak to durability as I have only bound 4 books so far, but everything looks good so far.

Works just as advertised. Very sturdy. Follow the instructions about how many sheets should be punched at one time. The drum that threads the coil works well. You may need to experiment on how it works well. I found the trick to be to tap the coil on the drum several times rather than holding it on steady. Impressed with this product.

Easy to use. I've punched 30 planners with about 200 pages each. The only thing I would say is make sure that you don't do too big of a stack at once, and make sure that your paper is lined up in the same place every time. Not just left to right, but make sure that you've pushed it as far in as it will go. I would buy this again.
