Four years of ownership. Great compact stapler that is actually more versatile than most standard size desk staplers. Saves room in your desk drawer. Can staple up to 40 sheets of paper, more than most staplers. Stands upright, or in the normal flat position. Can be opened up to tack on walls or bulletin boards. This stapler is very easy to operate, even if you have small hands, Gone are the days when I had to hard smack my old stapler to get a good result - with this stapler, you just push gently, but firmly. If you are stapling something not on a desk - for example, connecting two hanging drapery panels - you wrap your hand around the stapler and squeeze. Never had a problem with it, and it still looks new. Some staplers have an annoying failure rate when stapling. But I don’t recall ever having a failed or distorted staple, when using this Bostitch stapler. Nor has it ever jammed. This product is a tribute to whoever engineered it. Read more
This is a nice little stapler. Even though the body of the stapler is made of plastic, it feels solid, and has a bit of heft to it for such a small stapler. I got it so I could staple booklets together, but because the angle on the top portion hangs over so far it makes trying to line up the stapler with the crease in the paper almost impossible. Plus the there is no little lip between the front section (the metal portion that is bent inward with the slit in it) and the metal body (sometimes cheaper made staplers have this lip), and so it makes aligning the stapler with the "spine" of the booklets difficult as well. It's too well made, I guess. Other than my niche use for it, it works perfectly and as I said earlier feels very solid. Read more
This is a powerful little stapler, from a quality manufacturer. It does a great job stapling any anything a standard sized staple can handle. Read more
Love this stapler. Easy to use one handed plus it is great for fastening multiple pages. Read more
I was attracted to the gold color of the stapler, and I was not disappointed! The gold stapler adds a sense of professionalism and quality to my desk accessories. The size is comfortable and fits perfectly in my hand; perfect for one-handed stapling. So why did I only give this a 4-star rating? When it arrived, I was shocked to see that there weren't any staples in the staple compartment! Not only that, there was a message on the floor of the staple compartment which says: USE BOSTITCH STANDARD STAPLES. This should have been clearly delineated on the order page to give consumers a heads-up! I already had some staples, so I ignored the message (or should I say 'warning'?), and loaded the stapler with standard staples. Within one day of using my standard staples, the BOSTITCH stapler kept jamming. So I'm back on Amazon to order the BOSTICH staples and write this review - which will be updated if I see any improvement by using BOSTITCH staples. Read more
I should’ve reviewed this excellent stapler a long time ago, but wanted to use it to see just how long it would stay in good condition. I do a lot of work from home, thus doing a lot of stapling of printed material. The stapler never disappoints. If it jams, it’s because I have tried stapling way too many sheets at a time! Fits into your hand quite nicely. Easy to squeeze and use without straining your hand. Highly recommend. Read more
