Great book covers

Date:September 14, 2011

Pros: very good for larger books, provides great protection to the book, not bulky or "stretchy", are essentially waterproof, material appears to be very durable

Cons: smaller books require more time/effort to fit

These book covers provide great protection for the book and are easy to apply, although smaller books require a bit more effort to get the cover shrunk/fitted properly. (While one size does pretty much fit all here, having a smaller version for smaller books would be nice).
I used a heat gun rather than a hair dryer, and the shrinking process for a book took about 90 seconds start to end (and that included lots of shifting the book to evenly shrink the cover). I have covered 6 books with no problems at all.
I would definitely recommend this product, and look forward to using them again next year for both my sons.

Wow- it works!

Date:August 17, 2011

Pros: fit on the large- but not thick-grade school books, didn't need different sizes, can tell what book you have, can personalize without damage to book, doesn't stick to the book

Cons: none yet!

My daughter and I have been frustrated by those stretchy book covers that make grabbing the book, and telling which one it is, so difficult. When I saw these I had to give them a try. Following the directions, and trying to shrink them with the hairdryer proved difficult and time consuming- maybe my hairdryer isn't hot enough? Then we tried the oven. PERFECT and EASY Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F, line a cookie sheet with parchment (don't know if this is necessary, but I didn't want it to stick) slip the cover on the book adding in any decor you want underneath the cover and "bake" for 5 minutes. So why only 4 stars? It's only the first week of school and I don't know if they'll last- but if they do, we'll be getting more next year!
