Only looking to laminate ink jet prints and mount to boards 1/2" or less...
Its cheap enough to get started with. Will it do the job?

Bob, I got one and it works OK once you get the hang of it. You need the optional foot pedal switch so you can single-handedly laminate a 4 X 8!

How much is "cheap enough" in dollars, if you don't mind me asking?

Bob,
We have the 36" Quickmount. It does everything we ever wanted it to do. It does take a little getting used to but it is easy to learn.
It cost us just about $900 brand new with the optional foot switch.
Have a great one!

Cheap enough is $1465.00 in dollars and another $55 for the optional foot operation switch pedal. That includes free shipping and no sales tax from out of state.
I plan to laminate only 48" prints and for my intended print of 24 s.f. that works out to about $6.00 per print. Not bad. Laminate at 3 mil costs about .25 a square foot.
I'm sure there are better albeit expensive machines out there but this will get me to where I'm going with little out of pocket up front.
