It takes a while to learn to use it.

Found it too time consuming to go to print shop to get documents bound so I purchased a Fellowes Star 150. It was broken. But before I found out, I tried to follow the instructions but they are poorly written and incomplete. Didn't do anything until I watch a You Tube How-To video. Found out the small handle didn't go all the way back and that the lower prongs didn't slide to the left so it would open the comb. I am looking for another binding machine but it won't be a Fellowes. However, the more I used the machine, I had fewer problems. There is a learning curve for a user but that shouldn't have to be.

Also found out it won't take combs larger than 5/8" which really limits its usefulness.

Takes some getting used to but I think I figured it out I just hold it up side down! and it gets it in the areas I could not get otherwise

Maybe it's just me but at first it took a couple trys to figure out how to assemble and use properly. Once you get use to it, makes it easier to get a fine edge on the blade

There is a learning curve to this product. Once you get the hang of it it works quite well.

It works well.  It is just difficult to remember how to put it on if you aren't using it frequently.

the delay in the passing mode really gets to me, not as quick as it needs to be. To many buttons you need to learn, but its ok for as long as its been made over the years.

Works as advertised... though it does take some practice to get it right.

It takes a little time to get familiar with using the different parts; I had to get a neighbor to help me with it.

I had to fiddle with this thing quite a little to make it work, but eventually got it to work.

It takes some getting used to figure out but it does provide decent shade once you get it set up.

Takes some time to learn how to set properly. Good for what I use it for.

Works, sometimes. Requires a lot of time adjustments ever after using the enclosed instructions.

I think, there is a learning curve in using this. Sometimes it leaks if hold wrong or poured wrongly, however once you get a hang of it, it works great.

First off Im not very savvy when it comes to using items like this. So with that said it took me a while to get the hange of it. Im sure that someone that knows about videos would have an easier time working with it. I went to YouTube a few times for help. The instructions  were not very detailed for my limited understanding. However I believe in the product and think it works as advertised.
