Simple and Easy to Use May 27, 2010
By Steve Taylor Want a great deal on a label-maker then pick yourself up on of these Dymo printers. It's so simple you don't have to read the instructions (I did after I used it just to make sure I wasn't missing anything (and I wasn't)). The case is an extra bonus and so is the adapter. FYI- The picture shows Duracell batteries but they came with GP brand. Not that I care. The unit feels solid and the keys have a nice touch. The menus are super easy to follow, making the entire process a breeze. The labels look good and the font sizes make for easy reading. At work we have a hand held label-maker that cost many times the price of this one and it has a few more features but for the money I'll take this one any day.

Very Nice inexpensive Labeler kit Aug 07, 2008
By GreenMogul
"cheerios"
This is a very nice kit that Amazon has. This is my 1st purchase of a labeler and I did plenty of research before buying this one. I chose this over the LM150 model because it was newer and had a few more features.
The D1 cartridges that this unit uses are in abundance and have many variations: black, blue, and red ink, clear labels and colored labels. It can use three sizes: 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2". You will find cheaper replacement cartridges online such as at labelcity dot com. Price varies from 11 to 25 dollars.
The one major con I can think of is that this unit wastes about an inch of label when printing. 1/2 inch of blank space on either side of printed text is created and wasted. That's a lot of waste considering the price of these cartridges. That's why a star is knocked off.
Don't even think about using these as Address labels - far too expensive and you have to do them line-by-line. If you use the 1/4" labels you can trick the unit into printing larger text by selecting 3/8" after turning the unit on. The unit memorizes the last label you typed in and has a power saving feature that shuts off after 5 minutes (I think it's 5).
The kit provides an AC adapter which I love. I hate replacing batteries. But the unit will also happily run on 6 AA batteries if you need portability. Two 23 foot tapes come with it: one 1/2" black text on white, and one 3/8" black text on yellow. The yellow really jumps out at you if you use it for filing. The carrying case will make sure you keep it all organized and protected.
The crocodile border is just plain silly, but very good job DYMO! I am labeling everything in sight. Now if you can only do something about that wasted space on labels!

GREAT LABELER FOR THE PRICE! Feb 18, 2009
By Dadzgrls
"VAMPIRE"
This small desktop labeler can really get the job done. Not heavy on features, but for the price, it can accomplish alot. Picked this up last week (kit - which includes the Labeler itself, AC Adaptor, batteries, starter tape, full tape, instruction booklet and a very nice, sturdy case), for $37.11 (plus shipping). Prints up to 2 lines (3 would be nicer - for address labels). My only complaint is that the LCD Display needs an increase in contrast - or give it a backlight. The D1 standard tapes are about 23 feet in length - and I find that labelcity.com offers the best prices for these. I reccommend this labeler considering the price and the features that you get from it.

I own this labeler -- wish I'd known there was a kit! Jan 28, 2009
By J. Yang Well, I must have been in a hurry last week when I purchased the labeler (210D) with the AC adapter. I purchased it from TigerDirect and thought it was a great deal since the AC adapter by itself runs about $10-15. However, I missed this opportunity which comes with an extra full-length tape and batteries. I personally don't really care for the carrying case, since it seems a bit bulky, but it could add some value for others looking for that type of thing. I plan on just keeping mine either on the desk, plugged in, or in a drawer. I've printed a few labels since opening it today and they are crisp & clear. They don't waste as much tape as some other labelers do, although it doesn't seem like there's an option to make the margins narrower. I would only take off a 1/2 star for that since it is doing what I need it to do. I only wish I'd seen this deal instead, since I can't return mine now. The tapes usually run about $20 or more apiece so this is a steal.
I purchased the 210D LabelManager over the LetraTag personal labelmakers because of the QWERTY. The tapes (D1) are more expensive than the LetraTag, but I don't plan on using that many labels, and I have somewhat of a home office setup that I think this labeler will be good for.
