Sanford Dymo 1815990 LabelManager 280 Rechargeable Handheld Label Maker

Helpful product

Dymo device is good, refill ribbon is expensive.

The media could not be loaded. Bad product not working

Dymo usually makes good label machines. This one is a total failure. The software required to make it operate was not available online. When the label tape provided with the label maker was put into the machine, it gave an error code saying it was jammed. Removed it and tried many times with the same results. Don't waste money on this one.

You won't forget the basic functions because they are just that simple. When you notice something around the house that needs a label it's their for you. No booting up a phone or computer and trying to remember how to sort things out. Each cassette tape lasts a long time and is easy to swap out.

The Dymo LabelManager 280 is an outstanding machine. The construction is solid with no flimsy parts that may break with normal use. The screen is large, clear, and easy to read. The buttons around the screen have a nice click to them, and the buttons on the main body are rubber and feel solid. The unit feels good in the hands, and even those with smaller hands should have no trouble typing. The cutter is excellent, the best I've seen on any Dymo. It cuts cleanly and doesn't wast a lot of tape on each end. One or two read-throughs of the manual were all it took to learn the machine. It is well-written and will answer any questions. I found the menus easy to understand and navigate. It is rechargeable and comes with a charging cord. I gave it a full charge when I bought it in August, and here it is December and I've not had to recharge it since. I haven't had a chance to link it to a laptop to use the software, because it does everything I need it to do the way it is. Overall this was an excellent buy and I would recommend it for anyone looking for an inexpensive, well-built label maker that will provide years of use.***I purchased this item myself and I am in no way affiliated with Dymo or Amazon. This is my honest opinion and no one has asked me to write this review.***

Cool device. Great for the job in hand!!

The 280 replaces an earlier Dymo machine and the tags used for electronic labelling are clearer and neater than the earlier style.

I bought this in hopes of labeling some boxes to better organize my storage and this has exceeded my expectations. There is a lot of options in font size, color, style, and character options. It's quick and easy to print and sticks on pretty well. After using the super old ones that you spun to a digitalized version, it's such a wonderful leap in technology.
