This machine works good. I removed the cutoff scissors because it wouldn't work right, right out of the box. As far as edgebanding it seems to work as well as the big edgebanders. The preglued tape sticks well once you get the feed timing down. Don't leave the tape in line with the hot air too long though, or the tape will discolor and start to burn. I mounted a pressure feather board above the work pieces to hold larger pieces down. Overall I am pleased with this product. I do high end cabinetry out of my small shop. So far I have had profesional results.

I like this when I have to band a lot of shelves, but I very much regret not getting the handheld. Once the heat really gets going the tape jogs up and down in the guides, especially on the very long pieces. When using the standard 13/16" tape, I'm not given a lot of wiggle room.
"I am disabled and my doctors advised me to get a hobby of some kind. After a lot of consideration and talks with my 13yr old son, we decided on woodworking. We turned an extra bedroom into a workshop and we now both just love it. I have done business with many companies on the internet and on the phone ( not just woodworking companies) and i have never found a company that gets an A+ on everything like Rockler does. Rockler has very kind people that treat you well over the phone and they stand behind their products 100% like no other company i have ever done business with. You can be sure that my son and myself will always be Rockler customers." -
