It works, it works, it works! :-)
I bought this machine to bind my own Novel I wrote and printed, and have also used it to bind some smaller documents. I have used the pre-made vinyl thermal binders of various thicknesses for documents from 1/16 to 1 inch thicknesses and I am very pleased with the results. My novel is over an inch thick so I have had to make my own binders to hold all those pages. I mak...

Poor instructions and poor result
First time used, the instructions with the machine are very sketchy, and on-line no better. No mechanism for holding pages together and ensuring they are all in contact with the binding adhesive. Result is a document that spills pages when you open it to read it. and while i am at it the systel for logging reviews is not very user friendly

Extremely satisfied
I bought the Helios some months ago. I am using it to bind together old files and documents. It is an extremely easy job to do thanks to the perfect and safe functionality of the machine.

Fun and easy to use
The product is made for speedy binding, and works perfectly the first time, every time. The system is easy to use, and is made to make life easier. It even has a cooling tray, to allow the bindings to cool appropriately on the spine, to ensure the glue binds appropriately. I've tested out the strength of the bound pages, and the pages aren't going anywhere. I love it!

Helios Thermal Binder.
This is my second thermal binder, the first a different make was a bit awkward to use. The Helios 60 I found so easy to use and it made a really professional finish.

Very easy to use
We have a lot of documents that we used to pay someone else to bind for us. This is a HUGE money saver for our office. The fact that it is easy to use is definitely a plus.

A must for my coloring book business!
I'm the owner of Renew Color Therapy and i make personalized coloring books. It's a new business and i just bought the Helios 60 thermal binder for producing the books.

I recommend this product for anyone that uses this particular binding p...

Helios Thermal Binding Machine
It's a little slow to warm up, but meets our needs.

Excellent Machine
We own a small real estate company in Park Slope Brooklyn. We purchased the thermal binder because we wanted to be able to create wire free and punch free property pitch books. The binder heats up fast and does a thorough job of adhering the glue to the pages of books. It's quick, easy and very effective.

Terrible Product
I've only used this product infrequently. When it worked it worked good. But it just stopped working. It's a piece of junk and I am really angry about it. If I'd put my money in the trash it would have been a better investment.
