 Works great for me!Feb 11, 2009
By Dixie Blue Eyes
I am a homeschooling mom who downloads a lot of e-books. I have used this to make several books for school and it works great! It is solid, nothing seems flimsy or like it could break. I've made 100 page books with it so far and it works great.
***UPDATE*** 12/2/11
Still using this product and it still works great. No issues whatsoever.

 Pulsar 300Oct 10, 2008
By AC
Pros: Comb fingers are made of metal, not plastic
Handle arm is metal with a rubber grip so it's not going to break when you try to punch 15 sheets repeatedly
Storage tray is great, holds 25 3/8" combs with no problem
Has that heavy, "quality" feel, it doesn't feel like a plastic kid's toy
Cons: There are no reference points/lines on the underside of the lid to let you know if your paper is sitting in the puncher level
The rotary edge takes a little playing around with to get your papers punched evenly at the top and bottom (this is a minor issue)
I was debating on whether to buy this machine or the Starlet, also by Fellowes, but in the end decided to buy the Pulsar since it seemed like portability and size were major selling points with the less expensive Starlet. This machine takes up about the same space as my Brother HL-2040 printer, so while it's not huge it's not something you can hide on a shelf somewhere out of the way. In the end, I opted to pay more for what I felt was a higher quality machine and I'm glad I did.

Works Great But Requires SpaceJun 16, 2008
By TZ
This comb binder punches smoothly through paper, cardstock, clear covers. Maximum paper punch is 15 pages but strengh required, I found it easier to punch 10 pages at a time. Love the versatility, storage drawer with measurement guide, comfortable handle, and the supplies included with starter pack. The vertical document loading is fantastic, it really keeps your paper stack aligned, so much better and easier than horizontal loading. The only drawback is that this machine is the size of a small typewriter and quite heavy, not portable at all or easy to store away. I like the capabilities but wish it were the size of the Starlet model.

An Office Must-HaveJan 20, 2011
By Tamara Thorne
My spouse and I have owned a small business for five years and from the beginning, we wished for a comb binder for all the monthly reports we generate. Until recently, though, we made due with a three-hole punch. And, let's face it; the punch is a pain to use and too easy to use backwards. I had holes in all the wrong places.
So, I hadn't used the punch in two or three years. I have stacks of reports held together by alligator clips. Or I did. . . Once the Fellowes comb binder arrived, things changed.
The binder is a breeze to use. While it can punch more pages, I usually slip about 15 in at a time and haven't made any spare holes in my sheets since the first try. The combs are inexpensive and they, along with the covers, make the reports look professional and businesslike, even though I'd get an F in businesslike if anyone was grading me.
You can buy all sorts of combs and varieties of cover stock and the prices are right on Amazon and elsewhere. (By the way, I mainly use card stock from Costco for my covers.)
I'm also a writer and I now have the sexiest looking scripts in town, thanks to the Fellowes binder. The presentation looks as good as I hope the pages inside read.
I'm so glad I finally have a comb binder. If I'd known five years ago, I wouldn't have hesitated to part with the money. It's quick, easy, and gives you a product you'll be proud to present. Every piece of Fellowes office equipment I own is a workhorse and this is no exception. Highly, highly recommended.

Very Pleased!Nov 13, 2009
By Analee Marker
"MarkerMom"
I bought this machine over a year ago and have been very pleased with it. I have used it for severaonhome projects with my kids as well as calendars, fixing sheet music and cook books. It is very smooth and even though it will punch 15 pages at a time I am more comfortable doing closer to 10. I personally would prefer the spiral bindings for my projects, but the plastic combs are fine. I would definitely recommend this product to others. It does what I need it to do.
