Simple, even for someone who isn't crafty.

I saw this on sale, so I bought in on an impulse. I love it. I had been buying label paper and print random stickers for my son, then cut them into squares. Once you cut label paper, it is hard to get the labels off, labels don't stick to many things, can be super annoying to line up in the printer with the templates, and oh the jams from using fancy label paper. And again labels are very short term, so what If I want to actually make something crafty. Well I can't draw, paint, even write legible so I need to print. Then glue, yeah not enough, too much, paper gets wet, I glue my fingers together, almost glued my lips together once (you know how lol) point is, not crafty, but want to be We have stuck these to glass, plastic, metal, the walls. Very simple, I print a bunch of little whatever we are doing. Try to cram as much together as not to waste. Feed it in, often it is small so I might push with my fingernails, slowly turn the dial. The adhesive is perfect, they can be stored a while, and larger things my 5 year old can even run himself. I love this thing. If I had to come up with a negative, it is the paper ripping edge thing. Just like with saran wrap, foil, etc, it is just pointless. I'd like some sort of little cut button with a blade, but I will just use a scissors.

Great little machine for home use.

This machine works like a charm, I am pretty happy with the purchase. I notice a lot of the same questions and such popping up, though, so I figured I'd take the time to try and clear some things up for anyone who actually reads through the reviews. So ,what this machine does is it takes whatever you roll through it and adds a layer of adhesive to the bottom of it (covered by peel-back paper). That's pretty much it. While the diameter of your sticker is 5 inches, the length can be quite long since it simply outputs a continuous sheet. Ideally, if you are making small stickers (2 inches, 1 inches) the best thing would be to group them together in a page making program or something like that so you are not wasting the roll on one or two very small stickers. Making them in bulk is more cost efficient. The machine DOES NOT add any sort of matting or laminate to the top of the sticker, so keep that in mind. It doesn't use batteries or power; it's totally operated by a hand crank knob which works fine. It tends to be at it's best when your stickers are relatively simple shapes with broad curves. Complex and detailed die-cuts will probably not work too well because of the way the adhesive sticks to the paper. If you want to make stickers of complex shapes, I would recommend NOT die-cutting the shapes (like in a Silhouette machine or a Cricut) but rather giving them a loose border instead. The important thing to keep in mind about this machine is that the quality of the sticker that comes out of it is wholly dependent on the quality of what you are putting INTO it. It will make perfectly decent, basic, casual stickers with just plain printer paper or craft paper. But if you want really solid stickers, you will have to pick your medium. And, additionally, if you want stickers that can be placed outdoors or on cars or something like that, you will either need to seal your stickers with some form of waterproof matting spray OR use single-sided laminate sheets (which are easy to find in office supply stores). Personally, I have been able to make near-professional quality stickers on this thing using good quality photo paper to which I then apply a laminate sheet. You could also put vinyl through this machine, but most printable vinyl already has adhesive on it, so it's kinda redundant. The "permanent' adhesive rolls are definitely permanent. The glue is very good, about the same as the average sticker you would buy in a store. You can put it on glass if you want, but keep in mind that getting it off will probably require some chemicals or scraping. (if you want to make stickers for glass, you might want to instead try static-cling vinyl sheets). Anyway, it's a great little machine and makes way more durable stickers than the average sticker paper sheets you find in craft stores. Kids will probably love it, and it seems like a very child-friendly machine. Now I'm tempted to buy a slightly bigger model of the Xyron machines.

Great I made OVER 300 stickers

This is the best thing ever! I went online only to find out that a roll of 200 custom stickers was 49.57 and I was completely devistated because I didn't have that much money to spend. I was searching on the web for cheap sticker rolls and the least I could get was 30.00! Then I found this and decided to order it, I have made OVER 300 stickers for my business in under 20 min! The shipping was FREE and came in 2 days!

The Xyron XRN500 definitely LIVES up to the HYPE. It is all that and some more!!! LOVE IT!!!!!

I am tremendously satisfied with this Create-a-Sticker Machine! I absolutely love it! I would give it a dozen stars if I could. You literally open up the box, stick your item(s) in the slot, turn the knob, and BOOM, out comes your stickers!! IT IS THAT EASY!!!! I couldn't believe it. Rarely does a product live up to all of the hype that it's given. This one truly does. I NEVER write reviews. I just can't find the time to do so even though they are very helpful to consumers like myself. I don't buy anything without checking out the reviews and this product truly lived up to its high rating. Ever since getting this thing in the mail, I have been a lean, (well not that lean), mean, sticker making machine. Try it out for yourself. I guarantee you will love it! It is idiot proof. No batteries required, no heat, no plug, no nothing! Extremely simple to operate. I love it!!!!! This thing is worth every cent!! I am thinking of getting a few more as gifts for a couple of my teacher and crafty friends. I hope you love it as much as I do!

Best purchase I've made in a long time!

I am shocked at how cool this thing is. My 6yo son has been asking for a way to make stickers for a long time. I researched a lot of machines and wasn't sure what I wanted, so never ended up ordering anything. But one Saturday he was begging for one again, so I jumped on Amazon, saw this was $15+ and could be delivered on Sunday, and went for it. Oh my goodness was it a great order!!! It's still Sunday :) and we have already made about 15 stickers from drawings and photos. It is so easy to use; both my 6yo son and 3yo daughter can use it on their own. No electricity, batteries, or heat is invloved. You just set down the paper you want to be a sticker, rotate a knob clockwise, and...voila! It's a sticker! This machine has provided so much fun and entertainment and I've already ordered three refill packs. Highly recommended!!!

Where has this been all my life?!

I love goofy stuff. I'm a glutton for what may seem like a waste of money to most end up being a constant muse to me. So when I saw this sticker maker I thought great, I'm going to throw away money. But to my surprise I use this thing constantly and the stickers are very strong! I have way too much fun personalizing my things with it using pictures from my printer and placing them on my belongings. Plus this saves money believe it or not! I love hello kitty and I find it rediculous that a sticker with her face on a makeup box or notebook goes for so much money! All I have to do is make my own personal collage of her on my things and bamn! I got my own cheap hello kitty stuff without the Sanrio price tag. Also this goes for things that are hard to find. I'm also a big Harley Quinn fan and finding cute things with her face on it are next to impossible. Now I can make my own stuff with her on it too! Deft worth buying and ultra sticky! On a plus side, if you have the ability to use "modpodge" you can reinforce the stickiness to insure it won't fall off. -jill

BEST BUY EVER

No one understands just how much fun this little machine is. I had one as a child and bought another now with all the excitement in the world. If you're on the fence about this one I hope I can push you to love it as much as I do. This tiny cute machine allows you to turn doodles and drawings into beautiful stickers that you can put anywhere! You can even give your stickers to friends as presents! It's so wonderful!! This can also be used for scrap booking and it is VERY easy and useful.

GET IT YALL THIS IS SO COOL

THIS WAS AMAZING I GOT IT TODAY TRIED IT OUT AND ITS SO EASY AND HELPFUL!! AHHHHH I LOVE IT SO MUCH ALREADY I just kinda annoyed almost one inch gets wasted when pulling it out at the start, but at least the refills aren’t drastically expensive! SO IM HAPPY!!

Adhesive can be used without the machine

I like that this it easily converts just about any image on paper into a sticker and it's fun to use. The sticky cartridges are available in permanent or removable stickum. The thing I don't like is that it wastes quite a bit of the adhesive strip at the beginning of each job. I read online that many crafters just use the adhesive without the roller and rub it down with a folding bone or back of a spoon, so that's what I've started doing. So my advice is to purchase the adhesive cartridges w/o the machine.

YOU CAN PUT STICKERS EVERYWHERE NOW - on your face, on your desk, on your car, on your boyfriend, on strangers

I LOVE STICKERS - I had no idea that I could make all the stickers I want, of anything I want, in my own home. This product is easy to use, it is a people-pleaser and it is wonderful! I highly recommend getting a laminator along with this because this will not laminate your stickers (so they won't last very long unless you're using glossy things like magazines or photo paper) Make sure to watch tutorial videos on youtube or read about it so you don't waste your sticker paper. Be gentle with it! I highly recommend this product for any fan of stickers. I am 23 years old but my love of stickers will never die, now all of my dreams have come true with this Create-a-Sticker machine, I am elated! I just wish refill cartridges were cheaper!
