Broken record: I don't know why I am even bothering to write this as I AM using Dymo brand labels since I "upgraded" to the 550 turbo...and switching between this label and a larger one ends up wasting tons of labels until it is finally recognized. To make it worse, the Dymo connect software has crashed three times just in the time frame that I have been looking at reviews.

Because I had my Dymo 450 Twin Turbo for more than 30 years and it worked flawlessly, until it recently broke, I bought it without looking at and comments here. What a MISTAKE! MIGHT AS WELL HAVE THROWN THE MONEY WAY! I am a journalist for a daily newspaper and TV. RECOMMENDING in print and on the air to AVOID buying ANY DYMO product and DUMP their stock before it CRASHES -- ANY company that puts its consumers LAST and redesigns its products deserves to go belly up right away! Their new products SUCK! I would rate this -10!

I have just had an unexpected breach in my use of the Dymo Labelwriter Turbo 450. I have used it for years with great success. Suddenly it was nonresponsive. I installed my back up newer version and found the same thing. The company on asking for help, suggested that I should uninstall and reinstall the program. The program download is absolute garbage. The program is non friendly. I Dislike everything about it. I have a computer and label maker to make my life easier. NOT SO NOW!

I use NOTHING but the Dymo Labels that I purchased from your site and also from the WBMason site. The labels are seldom recognized as Dymo labels and I'm tired of it. I have to leave my desk and use someone else's old printer so I can print labels. I don't care how many times you tell me about the proprietary labels and not. Since day one I am using exclusively Dymo labels and I get nowhere. Please do something about this because it's nerve wrecking and slows me down tremendously.

Glad I read the reviews. I have a 450, was thinking of upgrading but clearly DYMO has turned into another trash company. Maybe you should go back to making the old 70's style embossers. All the responses from DYMO say that they made the change to the RFID chips because of "all the complaints" they had, yet, I don't see any. Hmmm! Anyways DYMO, don't bother with the lame reply because I won't be reading it.

It's fine when it works but a huge hassle when you have to replace the roll of labels. It is easy enough to change out the roll however getting the label maker to acknowledge that it is changed is another thing. The point of the labels are so it knows how many is left, yet it doesn't detect being changed to a full roll.

label maker is great but every time you need to change labels it doesnt recognize that you have changed them. I also always defaults to a standard label size even if you only use a different label size. You have to say a pray each time you turn it on that it recognizes you have the right labels in there. Over all its a giant pain

these label maker require an special RFID chip to be included on the labels or they will not work on your label maker. They have a spiel they will give you (see below reviews) about how these labels work better but its only so they can inflate the cost of their labels and make you purchase them from them. I have three 450s never had a problem with any of them but ill be returning this label maker ad looking for a different product. Weve used dymo for 10 years but i will be switching brands.

I had one of these where I used to work (now retired). I use it to create labels for everything I need a label for out in the garage, kitchen, office, or wherever I need something that is easy to read and not scrawled on some chunk of paper and taped to an object. I used this to place an address label for my Christmas cards (includes the postal bar code). Thanks to Walmart and to their FREE shipping, came to my house quickly as promised!

My IT Manager came up to set it up - Couldn't transfer my files. To add a new address is not easy and it looks like I can only save 20 labels, editing or deleting duplicates is impossible. I went from a 330 to the 550 wish I had the 330 back if I could bring it back to life along with its easy use software,
