Customer Reviews

I purchased this stapler after carefully reading all of the reviews on Amazon.com. I am currently using this stapler in a pharmacy setting (stapling 100 - 200 items daily). I have had nothing but perfect workings for the two months that I have owned it. I have not used the Swingline staples that is recommended for this stapler, instead opting for the Staples brand staples that other owners have recommended. Overall, very little pressure is required to operate the stapler and with no jams (ever!), I couldn't give this product a higher recommendation.

Somebody got these for our office copier areas, and they instantly became the staplers of choice amongst staff. We have people who will come and use them instead of the ones on their desks. I liked it so much, I bought one of my own for the office, and one for home.
There's no extra forcing pressure needed regardless of the number of pages. It feels like an electric punching action, though it isn't. You just press and it does the job.
With the recommended staples, this stapler promises to punch 25 pages with ease. I find it'll do up to 30.
(UPDATE!) - Two years later, I dropped the stapler (onto carpet) and the metal arm fractured! A triangle-shaped chunk from the left side just where the rubber top meets the body broke off. It still worked for a couple of weeks, but eventually the metal body fractured across the entire arm, rendering it useless.
But prior to that, the thing worked flawlessly. Never jammed once in roughly 6,000 staples.
