Pictures are not correct
Upon further review of the pictures after receiving the product I saw that the pictures associated with item are incorrect. They are actually of two different machines! Disappointing!

Good machine terrible instructions
This machine is high quality and works very well but the instructions are horrible. I had to go to a brick-and-mortar Staples to find out how to use it.

Works like a charm
Bought this comb binding machine when an electronic version my company had broke. The broken electronic one was a pain to use even before it was broken but this one works like a charm. The pages are easy to feed into the punching section and the alignment tool is easy to use to make sure all the pages are where you want them to be. Would highly recommend for any offi...

Worked amazingly at first
I work in an office that produces booklets for our customers. We upgraded to the quasar+ when our last binder stopped working. After a few months, the same thing happened with the last. The teeth get stuck in the closed position and we are unable to pull the booklets out without damaging them. Binding has become a hassle. There is no real way to open the device to greas...

Fellowes Quasar+ 5227201 Comb Binding Machine 500 sheet capacity
We had been using a less expensive comb machine and it was okay until we decided to use vinyl covers on our projects to protect the document for continual use. Our old machine could not make clean cuts in the vinyl and was destroying the sheets. This product however cut through the vinyl like butter knife through butter!!! Also the down feed of the sheets into the...

Simplicity
After much research I decided to purchase the Followes Comb Binding Machine. I already used the binding covers front & back and the quality is Superb. Amazed how easy this machine operated and the directions came across very easy that anyone could use. Thanks for making such an outstanding machine with Style & Simple directions. So glad I made this choice. Sheila

Great Machine
This binding machine is easy to use even though It took a little practice to get the hang of how it works. Its does take up a lot of room so would not recommend for a desktop. It is extremely sturdy and should keep up to high demand. I would highly recommend this product.

Easy to Use-Quasar 500 Manual Comb Binder
Only drawback with this binding machine is needing to hold up pages and remember to slide paper to the far left so holes are punched correctly. I expect this machine will hold up better than its electric model which broke down in less than 3 years. This machine is definitely a keeper.

Easy to Use
We purchased this product to replace another binding machine. The vertical paper feeder makes the machine quick and easy to use. I really like how the comb placement keeps it in place without having to try multiple times. I would recommend this product to all.

The ease when punching holes in the paper was so easy. Overall I love this binding machine compared to our old machine. The function of this one is so smooth. I was amazed on how light weight the machine was too.
