desktop glue binding machine

[graull]

Hi, I'm new to the forum so hope I'm not repeating an old topic.

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with desktop glue binding machines (they all seem to be manufactured in China) like this one:

I run a small publishing outfit and am trying to lower costs by getting into binding our own books and this type of machine looks like the answer but I can't seem to find a single review online of anyone who's ever used one - so if someone has some experience any feedback would be appreciated.
