Great Custom Item
January 12, 2013
I bought this embossed as a Christmas gift hoping that the uniqueness would make it special. Not only did the item arrive quickly, but it was packaged well and ready for use. It works like a gem and actually looks unique on display. I love the extra charm it lends to homemade gifts from the kitchen. I'm interested in ordering alternate plates but have yet to do so.
Pros: Durable, Easy to Use, Quality, Size, Versatile

Fun to personalize!

DOES NOT WORK
December 15, 2012
I have to believe I am doing something wrong but I bought an embosser and several plates and it worked fine the first time - but as soon as I changed plates - the images are faint and DO NOT STAMP. The alignment is wrong. NO INFORMATION ANYWHERE on how to trouble shoot. A HUGE disappointment - especially with mounds of gifts ....
Cons: Difficult to Use, Unreliable

Uneven embossing
January 13, 2012
I purchased the "Library of" embosser and was disappointed. The stamp it makes is uneven - in order to get the name appear at the bottom you have to stamp super hard, which in turn makes the books image tear through the page. The best solution we could find was to lighten up the pressure, but now you can't read the "Library of" really at all. I read other reviews where people said the same thing - don't make the mistake I did when I ignored them!
Cons: Difficult to Use, Quality, Unreliable

USE THINNER LABELS FOR PERFECT EMBOSSING!
January 7, 2012
My sister gave me my embosser a few years ago and I do like it. I use the labels as a seal on the boxes of goodies I give away. I, too, had the problem of getting a clear embossing on one side without cutting through the the other side. I put a strip of heavier paper under the label where it would cut through and that took care of that issue. Though they do not look as classy as the labels from W-S, the foil document labels from the office supply stores emboss perfectly!
Cons: Difficult to Use

Just as Described
January 3, 2012
The embosser worked just as described, producing a very clean imprint on the labels provided. Avoid my mistake and use as few letters as possible, since (depending on the design) too many letters make the imprint look too crowded and not as professional.
Pros: Easy to Use, Quality, Strength, Design

For the Strong of Thumb
December 6, 2011
Had to bring the embosser to work for a burly coworker to unlock. I couldn't get it to open to work, much less change the plate. The locking mechanism is very stiff. The triple-initial embosser produces consistently clean results. Mixed results with "Made from Scratch." You have to fool around to get an even impression of all the lettering and the bowl design. It's OK for foil stamps, recipe cards -- but maybe not a valuable cookbook where you've got one chance to succeed. If you're on the cusp--the price of embosser and plates each dropped $10 from when I placed my order.

Will not use it that often ;-(
November 30, 2011
I like it, but it does not emboss evenly. So the top bit 'Made from Scratch' is barely embossed while the bottom where I've put my wording is properly embossed.
When I press it harder so it embosses the top 'Made from Scratch' properly, it actually cut through the image of the mixing bowl in the middle.
It is also not that easy to use due to shape and weight.
So although I like it, I would not recommend it.

Nice Personal Touch
September 30, 2011
I like the embosser bought primarily for invitations. Will definitely use for other personal mail. Next time I order one, I would include our last name with the circle address in addition to the monogram in the center. It is not shown that way and didn't realize our full name wasn't on it until it was received. Still looks nice. Also like that replacement embossers can be ordered to use with the stamper and stand.

Love Love Love this item
September 27, 2011
Everyone gets a kick out of my personalized gifts. Love it so much, I bought 3! One "from the Kitchen of " w/my name; one "from the Library of" to emboss my 150+ cookbooks, plus I emboss my books if I lend them out; and then I got one to give my culinary gifts a professional spin. Add the personalized ribbons, and my niece's friend thought my box of pecan tarts came from a bakery
Pros: Durable, Easy to Use

Great as a gift or personal use.

I purchased this product for a gift and am very pleased with it! It is sturdy and also easy to use. My only complaint is not having enough choices for the plate design. I did have to improvise for my selection. Thanks!

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS!!
May 4, 2011
This is the greatest thing!! I ordered the return address one and it is simply elegant and beautiful. I wasn't sure what the center initial would look like because you don't get the option to preview it, but I can tell you the "H" is very very pretty. It's so easy to use. It took a few times for me to totally master it, but once you've done it a few times, it's perfect everytime. I highly highly recommend this and it came within 1 week of placing the order, just in time for me to use on my baby shower thank you's!
