Can I use the machine to laminate just the top side or does it always laminate both sides?

Yes, you can laminate just the top side. But machine doesn't work itself, you need to learn how to do it.

Yes it will do double sided. I just did this by putting two of my business cards back to back and laminated them.

I don't have any laminate so you would have to read mfg instructions. I use on ceramic tile and it works great.

When I use a carrier the laminates don't bond. I had success with this machine only by not using the "carrier" and just putting the laminates through the machine. It did work fine that way.

It is clear... so it is a 'do it yourself' laminate. You just measure (get close) then cut a top and bottom or 'fold' in half and your item is laminated.

Yes! It is very easy to use and if you want to only use two side you can but there are adhesive strips on all four sides.

You can use just one side if you want as the switch gives you the two options. I love mine and usually use both sides and make two different kinds at the same time.

I have laminate floors that I use it on all the time but occasionally I use it on ceramic tile floors with success

Yes, both sides are the same including the top and bottom so you can use it lengthwise or widthwise

No, the fabric is permanently attached to the top. You can use it without the sides though.

I have not used any other type of lamination with this machine, but that's not to say you couldn't. The only problem I see if you were to use the laminate that requires a carrier is it might be to thick to travel through the heating rollers and could get stuck.

I have found that both sides are useable. It helps that the mat doesn't slip easily on the floor thereby providing for stability. Let's both enjoy our mat for a long time.

Yes. I have laminate flooring. The surface of the flooring is slightly uneven by design of the "wood grain," and vacuum will leave a slight bit of water in the deepest grooves, but I find that it still drys very quickly and I don't consider it a problem. I like the ease of using the machine. It saves time/work/money by not changing disposable pads. It saves time/work/money by not having to wash non-disposable pads. I like that you can vacuum and mop with the same machine!

no problem . works great from 3mil. to 10 mil. This is the best machine i have bought any place . I have bought at least 4 different brands of Laminating machines and this one has lasted the longest. I do have a small printing business and it does get a good work out.

I have never used it on laminate but after reading everything on laminite floors because I recently had them installed, I wouldn't do it

I'm not an expert, but I don't think that's advisable. If you want a single piece of equipment to do both, I suggest you keep looking for a combination style machine. I have seen them here designed to work multiple areas. The only caution is that combination equipment often comes with trade offs in performance or design.
