Could be a little better, but not bad at allOct 31, 2009

My office likes this machine. The only problem; the lever that opens the binding combs will try to pull shut after you have openned it when you are working with the narrow 1/4 size and 3/8 combs and that is a bit of a pain. Otherwise all is good after several months of use.

An Efficient BinderAug 19, 2010

My office purchased the CombBind C210E to replace an old Ibico Ibimatic. It has held up well under light use and I have to say it this electric model is superior to the manual Ibimatic in all but 3 ways. It is more ergonomic and easy to use, and you can open a spine in the comb while the paper is still in the punch area without trapping it there. The one touch punch is a real arm saver, though it seems to struggle a bit to punch the maximum of 20 20lb. sheets. The sliding front area makes choosing between letter size and cover size sheets a snap.
Where it falls short is in build quality. The C210E is mainly plastic and has the motor which seems like it may fail one day. The Ibimatic is 90% sturdy metal and has no need of a motor or electricity to operate. The cord of the C210E seems a bit short as well, necessitating either an extension cord or placement near an available outlet. Lastly, the arm that opens the comb binders is rather small and still, making it slightly difficult to operate. The large arm of the Ibimatic had no such issue.
Even with those slight drawbacks, I'm very happy with the electric convenience of the C210E. I would estimate that I'm about 150% as productive with the new unit. Let's hope it lasts!
Good machine for moneyNov 28, 2011

I purchased this punching/binding machine for our school after our 12 year old GBC heavy duty steel manual punch machine broke and replacement parts were not available anymore(plus the cost to replace was $2000!) I was reluctant to purchase the electronic punch as being a school, the machine gets used all the time. However, after 1 month of continous usage, it is holding up very well and the teachers have given it two thumbs up. The only reason I didn't rate it 5 stars is that the manufacturer recommends no more than 20 pages of punching at one time, however, after researching and talking with repair people, they told me to put no more than 8 PAGES in at a time to punch. They said if that part was broken then there was not a part to replace. Being a school on a tight budget, I didn't want to spend $600-$1000 for a machine (that added additional pages) so compromised and spent approximately $250. I will see in the next 6 months how it holds up and submit another review.
 comb binder system with electric hole punchOct 16, 2010

"The Link Review"
I should have bought this years ago. I had the lower model for years because I have to bind manuals. But in order to punch holes in the paper, the old one you had to pull the handle down and if the paper wasn't in just right, you'd get mis-punched holes. I had found just buying the pre-punched paper was easier (but not cheap). When I started looking again to see if someone made an electric hole puncher I found this. Now I buy the cheap copy paper and punch my own holes. The first time I had to print 50 books, the machine paid for itself! You simply put the sheets in the front, push a button. We have yet to mis-punch any sheets. You still have to manually bind the books but that's the quick and easy part. Until now. Now even the hole punching is easy!
