We are looking for a machine to use in our homeschool. Does anyone have/know of one you can recommend? I would appreciate info on where you got it, how much refills are, and the pros/cons of it. Thanks!

Well, I don't have a machine.... but did you know you can buy laminate at an office supply store? They make it so you peel it back, put your item in, press it, rub it, then cut your item out. It is really easy!

You could also get a Xyron machine, they do all sorts of things like apply magnetic or sticker backs plus the laminating.

I guess it would depend on what kinds of things you plan to laminate, and how rigid you want your finished product to be. For most things I ever wanted to laminate, it was much less expensive for me to go to a teacher supply store with a big ol' laminator and pay whatever they charged per linear foot. I laminated lots of flash cards, small posters, even covers to support group or small church directories. I did buy a small laminator that would do small cards, like I.D. cards, but I wouldn't have considered anything bigger--too big, too expensive, not enough use.
