Label this AWESOME [Posted on 2008-01-21] I got this for my birthday last year and just bought another as a gift for a friend. It is so handy that I have labeled pretty much everything in my house. I categorized my panties by thong, bikini, and granny just so I would have more things to label. It's really easy to use, and has a lot of fancy features that I don't even use because the basic options work so well. Seriously, it's simple enough that my 5-year-old labeled his brothers.
My preference is the plastic tape. It sticks to things better and you can wipe the labels. Use the paper cartridge up in your filing cabinet where you won't be cleaning anything. Dymo also has a new iron-on refill available that lets you add your mark to fabrics - WHAT COULD BE BETTER?!
If you're looking for an excuse to organize more, then the Dymo LetraTag Plus is totally for you.
great machine! [Posted on 2008-02-08] This is very easy to use and prints exceptionally clear labels. It also has a choice of three languages in the instructions on the machine. I think I have labeled everything in my house except for the dogs...
OK for the price [Posted on 2008-03-02] Each time I go to use this I find another little irritating thing about it. My main complaint is the size of the type. Oh, you can choose from several sizes, but that is only for width, not height of the letters. I.E. Extra Large prints the letters twice as wide as the Large size, but still only 3/16ths of an inch high, making them very difficult to read (and using twice as much tape, of course).
The Preview button only shows you the letters that will print, and the Size function shows the letters taller, not wider, and it is very misleading. It would be nice if you could see what the actual label would look like, and if it would print on more of the width of the tape, not just on a narrow 3/16th inch band.
I'd prefer a QWERTY type keyboard over the alphabetical one provided.
The labels are easy to apply and to remove without residue, and remain on the packages in the freezer (which is my main use for the product). I like the fact you can stick the entire device on the side of the refrigerator with the powerful magnet holder.
What's wrong? [Posted on 2008-04-13] I have not had any luck in getting this gadget to work. I am pretty sure I've got the label paper loaded correctly. When I try to print, it just turns off.
Honestly, I used a gift certificate to buy this, so it's kind of not worth my time or the effort to return it.
I might try to use it again and see what happens. If it doesn't work then, I'm pitching it.
UGH!!! [Posted on 2008-09-01] This works well but is an ENORMOUS battery power hog! It can deplete a quality set of rechargables in about ten minutes! I was THRILLED that it had AC power adapter capability, but when you add the whopping $24 cost of the adapter to this price tag--it's no longer a value! The labels are fine-- although they give you the useless paper and clear labels with initial purchase. Only the plastic labels last for any length of time. Also, on the larger size print, many of the letters look condensed or "shmooshed" into the space--it just looks awful. BUY A BROTHER!! My last label maker was a Brother p-touch and I'm so sorry that I decided to buy this one.
