> 24 hour..if you read the review that Stephen Brown wrote below, my opinions/thoughts are very similar and align with his. I just didn’t want to be redundant and say the same things over. I would recommend it but if you’re not totally into how it looks (I am), then there may be better options out there

> 24 hourHonestly, after my first experience with a small label maker I almost didnt try this one. But, it looked promising so I decided I would make one more attempt at actually getting a decent item. Im glad I did. Yes, it takes time to get the hang of designing and placement – and figuring out where things are located in the app – but otherwise it has been an entirely different and much better experience for me. The end results are also much better looking. What you get: The box contains the label maker, a USB cord (no charging block), 1 roll of continuous label tape, and a small manual that helps you install the app, connect to the device via Bluetooth, and get the label tape set up. The presentation of this product in its box is impressive. It looks good enough to gift as-is. Device: So easy to use! There are only three buttons – one for power, one for cutting the labels, and one for opening the device to change label rolls etc. All device functions operate smoothly and efficiently and the quality of the printed label is quite good. App: Easy to find in the app store and easy to download. I do not appreciate having to provide my email address or phone number to an unknown Chinese company but it is required to create an account in order to login and use the app. The app itself is much easier to use than the one utilized by the previous label make that I had, though, it still takes some time to get the hang of it. At the end of the day I am much happier with this new label maker. It does seem to have fewer fonts/graphics and Im still learning the interface, but it is an all around good mini label maker and I genuinely like it...

> 24 hourNicely packaged in a stylish box, this is a small but mighty label maker. I have several label makers but this one is by far my favorite. After downloading the app I was printing labels within minutes. The small size (cute and cuddly) makes it perfect to pop in the desk drawer or the briefcase and did I mention the stunning labels it prints? I highly recommend!

> 24 hourI have seen this type of label maker before and finally took the leap. We label a lot of kids items for school so I thought this would be a fun way of adding a little extra character. I was right, the app download was easy (as long as you get the right one, there are two from the same company in the app store). Once I loaded the app and powered the printer on it found it right away so that I could make a connection. As a quick test I just downloaded a transparent background PNG and easily dropped it on to a label with some text. Hit print and out it came perfect with nice crisp lines. The adhesive seems strong and so far has held up well on the water bottle it was put on. The only negative that I have is the musical sound that the device makes when it starts up and shuts down. I dont know why manufacturers seems to load up devices with unnecessary noises but if you have read some of my other reviews you will note my dislike for these type of things. As for the app issue I mentioned, I initially downloaded the NIIMBOT app instead of the NIIM app. The NIIMBOT app did not find the printer and I was just about to contact support when I noticed the icon difference in the instructions...after swapping for the correct app there were no problems. Thats on me, but I do wonder why the company has two apps for similar purposes and one doesnt work while the other does.

> 24 hourIve been looking for a label maker like this for a long time. The printer comes with a charge cord and very good instructions on how to set up the printer. My phone instantly paired to the label maker, and I could print whatever label I wanted. I would highly recommend this item.

> 24 hourHave always wanted a label maker, but the idea of dealing with the tape and everything was a bit much. This label maker solves that problem! Quick and Easy setup. You just download the app and sync it up to your phone. The app is user friendly and has fun options for adding graphics, changing font, etc. This label maker uses tape rather than stickers! This means that you can make the labels as short or long as you want. It has a button you push to get a perfect straight edge cut right at the end of the label. The printing is high sheen, no smudging. And as an added bonus, it has a super cute retro design. Did a test sticker on my cell phone case (goes in and out of my pocket constantly) and it has held up without any peeling or smudging for weeks. Overall, this is nice compact easy to use label maker.

> 24 hourI was very frustrated trying to figure out how this label maker works. There is an area that should have a help section including a manual, but mine always said the content was missing. Its not that intuitive but I eventually figured out how to use it, at least to create some nice looking labels. There are a number of free fonts and borders and the tape has a sticky back. So once you get it working, you can create labels that are about 1/2 inch wide and easy to read. I own a different NIMBOT hand printer which only makes very small, narrow labels and they are very difficult to read from a distance. I think that because I have that label maker, I was able to figure out this one. One trick I discovered is to make sure its good and charged before trying to do anything. It appeared to be working right out of the box but I couldnt see any printing. I left it charging all night long and today, its printing for me. Ill probably redo all the labels I created with the smaller maker since these are so easy to see. Both label makers will be very helpful for my card making. I can easily create sentiments. For purposes of making labels, Id give this a 5 but the lack of instructions , a manual or any other resource that explains how it works made me knock off a star.

> 24 hourI dont know how I lived before now! The app is worth the download space and makes designing cute labels a cinch! Easy to use and only took a couple of tries to understand how formatting translated from the app to the labels. There is a in-app fee if you want to make fancier prints with more fonts and images, etc. but you dont have to pay if you are looking for something simpler and can get away with using free designs to make it your own.
