Reviewing the GBC CombBind C95 Comb Binding Machine
Plastic comb binding machines and the GBC name go hand-in-hand. The company makes a number of these devices and one of their smaller machines is the CombBind C95. This product was designed for light use both at home and in the workplace. It has a lot of great features, but there are a couple of things that could be improved. Here are this device's strengths and weaknesses.
* The C95 can punch up to 15 sheets of paper at a time. It's capable of binding books that contain as many as 170 pages. A number of different combs are compatible with this machine, including ones that are 3/4 .
* Selecting the right comb will be very easy because the C95 has a comb selector guide. Just measure the thickness of your document and match it with with the appropriate comb size. It couldn't be easier and it takes a lot of guesswork out of the process.
* Opening your combs once they're selected will also be easy. This machine has a rotary dial you can use to open the comb as wide as you need.
* In addition to plastic combs, this device is compatible with GBC ZipBind spines. Documents bound with ZipBind spines are easy to edit, so they're great supplies to use if you anticipate changing your document in the future.
* The C95 has a precision margin edge guide so that all of your documents will be aligned properly and look great.
* This machine is very compact and it won't take up very much room in your home or workplace. It's also lightweight (it weighs less than 20 pounds) and it has a carrying handle so you'll be able to use it on the go if you need to.
* The C95 is reasonably priced so purchasing it won't break the bank. It comes with a limited one-year warranty so you're covered in case something goes wrong.
* A 15-page punching capacity isn't bad, but it's not terrific either. If you have to put together a lot of documents, you're going to be punching for a long time which could be inconvenient. (And tedious.)
* The punching handle is located on the right side of the C95. While this is handy for right-handed users, left-handed people could find using this device to be a bit of a pain.
* Since this is basically an entry-level machine, it lacks the advanced features found in higher-end devices including disengageable dies. Thus, you'll be limited in the size of documents you can produce.
The GBC CombBind C95 would be a good choice for people looking for a light-duty comb binding machine for shorter documents. Although the punching capacity leaves a little something to be desired and the placement of the handle is inconvenient for southpaws, this device is overall a respectable binding machine that happens to be reasonably priced and it comes with a good warranty. So if you need a light-duty binder, make sure you consider the C95.
