Kala Mistral vs Flexa Easy Lite

[StalSeb]

Hi,
We're currently shopping for a new laminator and have been looking at the Kala Mistral.
I've heard alot of good things about this laminator and it looks like a good match for us.

Our main machine supplier however doesnt sell the Kala Mistral and we really love them as a supplier.
I would love to know if anyone have any experience with the Flexy Easy Lite which they do sell.
They seem to be pretty close in what they both do and in quality, so would like to hear some feedback about which machine you guys would choose.

Hello
We do sell the Flexa Easy Lite laminators for years and I can confirm that these are good and solid machines. They are made in Italy, I visited the factory often and they know what they are doing.

Unless you're mechanically inclined, get one with local support. Many on here have had high praise for Kala and GFP laminators.
Find another dealer near you that can discuss your needs and the options. If you really like your current dealer, see if they'll offer some kind of 30 day trial. Or if they have a demo laminator in house see if you can run some jobs there.

I agree with this 100%. Also a dealer that can help you set it up and run over some of the settings with you and get it dialed in. It would be a shame to invest in an expensive but amazing machine only to get what you were able to teach yourself out of it.
