Brother PT-H200 Label Maker, P-Touch Craft Label Printer, Handheld, QWERTY Keyboard, Up to 12mm Labels, Includes 12mm Gold on White Tape Cassette

This is so easy to use. It has a qwerty keyboard so it makes it easier and can be used on a table using both hands. The cartridge it comes with is white ribbon. I think it would have been better with a ordinary white cartridge to start you off. It is a sturdy item and looks good. Takes 6 AAA batteries. The print is bold and clear. Plenty of options for font and size. Plus patterns. It will print on two lines for smaller labels. I am a crafter so I can use it on my handmade cards. I have used it for my boxes and folders. I have now started labelling my baking containers. A vey hand gadget to have. I am really pleased with it.

Exactly what I needed for labelling sockets, etc.

Really versatile and does a great job, we love it

Great you can label anything.

Easy to use and does exactly what it say it does would recommend it

I wanted a printer for garden plant labels - this is perfect and really easy to use (for the basic needs I have of it). I think its very good value.

Would have liked it better if it came with an instruction manual.

Worth watching one of the many Youtube videos before you use it.

This is the best gadget ever. So many uses dont know how I managed without it

Previously I’ve found all the information I wanted to know about a product on the description but there are certain things I didn’t see, which made choosing the type of labelling machine I wanted a little more difficult. I am hoping this review will help you find the right make and brand for you, without having to sift through multiple websites to find the answer! This labeller is not for industrial purposes. But if you are looking for a labeller to use at home, for craft or general purpose this is the one to go for. Unlike the industrial labelling machines, this one allows each label to have a different pattern. There are also more emoji options, text sizes, and fonts to choose from. I was stuck with what brand to choose. After researching I found Brother came out best. It is more reliable and prints labels faster. This machine however isn’t produced to create multiple labels at quick speed because of the decoration each label can have around the outside. Another reason this machine swayed me is it’s ability to print on ribbon, tape and material tape (to label clothes for example). The industrial machines - as far as I’m aware - do not allow for this! Means you don’t need multiple labelling machines for the different materials! The tapes that are sold are mostly compatible with this machine. I’ve found the tapes don’t have to be the most expensive in order to work. Managed to get 5 tapes for £7. This machine takes up to 12mm wide tape, which is good to know. Some of the patterns it prints can only be printed using 12mm tape, but the majority can be printed on the smaller tape. I didn’t think I needed a labelling machine but I was very wrong. So far I have had the machine 7 hours and I have used 8m of labelling tape. This machine is easy to use. However you will need to be patient when pressing the buttons as they are a little hard to press, but when you get the hang of it, it’s alright! I read the instructions once and then felt comfortable enough to throw the instructions away, it’s that easy to use. Quite a girly looking machine, compared to the others out there but I like that! Got so carried away with labelling that I labelled my labelling machine..... Hope this helps! Certainly all the information I was looking to find when researching all the labelling machines out there - just to find out which was best for my needs. Would highly recommend.
