This review is from: Cosco 030600 2000 Plus one-color create-a-stamp kit, 4-line kit, black ink (Office Product)

I have several of these Cosco stamps in various sizes. I love them. They are so handy and configurable. I have used them for years now; a couple of them are 5-6 years old. I've had no problems with any of them.

Cosco makes (I believe) 3-4 models of this style of stamp. If you notice the front of the stamp says "2000 Plus" on all models. Right under those words in smaller lighter text it says "Printer 30" or "Printer 40", and so on, which identifies the size of the stamp.

The one which says "Printer 30" is the smallest one, but the one I like the most. It's perfect for return addresses, or places where you would like a few lines of text in a modest space. It would be good for an endorsement stamp too. The ones labeled "Printer 40" (or above) are larger and would be better suited for addresses, or where the larger text (font) would be useful.

A little hint or two - I know these suggestions will be obvious to most people, I'm only mentioning them for the few who may not be familiar with "self-inking" stamps.

If you've had the same text on the stamp for a while, then later on when you change the text, and you notice that the stamp doesn't seem to print as well as it did, it may be due to the previous text pressing into the ink pad and leaving dents (temporary) from the letters. Pull the ink pad our and rotate it 180 degrees, but still facing downwards, and reinsert it. Sometimes this helps. Also, if the pad gets a bit dry after a while, most of the inks for re-inkable "self-inking" stamps will work fine to refresh it.

I loved this stamp...until I used it. You have to use the stamper at least 5 times on some scratch paper before it will completely print. It almost always leaves part of the text unprinted or illegible. Once you really get the whole thing moistened with ink it seems to do better.

I bought this when I was in college nearly 10 years ago. It has lasted me through about 10 address changes and a name change when I got married. I get tons of free address labels in the mail once the junk mail catches up to my new address, but this little stamper got me though every move until then. Patience is required when pulling off/putting on the itty-bitty letters. Would be a great graduation gift. I finally had to buy refill ink after about 10 years.
