Doing wonderful work

I've not used the brand before, but it seems like a really nice stapler. I'm impressed--well, as impressed as I can be with a stapler... :) It's metal with a rubber base and some plastic on the handle where you push down. It feels very strong in it's metal construction, but it's not as heavy as many staplers that I've used. It has a very smooth stapling action. It has a little ker-chunk, but it's not as loud as the Swingline I've been using nor does it require as much force as the Swingline. There's no button to swing it open. It's only held closed with friction. You can open the top to fill it with staples, but you can also open it wide to staple to a bulletin board just by pulling the top half up. When you open it wide, it can open more than flat. I got a stapler recently that wouldn't open flat and that really disappointed me! I love a stapler that comes with a 15 year warranty, but the only support number is in the UK. They seem to really want you to email them. I think it's going to last, but I'm not confident the warranty is worth. Would they ask me to mail a defective unit to the UK? But it's very reasonable priced, so I think I'm ok no matter what. :) `I really like the stapler. It's comfortable to use. It's very sturdy. But it's not to heavy nor is it overly loud. It's not jammed on me, and I've stapled a bunch of stuff with it. I certainly do suggest this!

My first use with this stapler didn't work. I had a couple of staples come out, and neither of them actually stapled the paper. But after that slight hiccup, I haven't had any issues with it. I didn't have any stacks of 25 pieces of paper needed to be stapled, so I hunted around for some scrap paper. I found 17 pieces and the stapler handled it without any problems. I folded that stack in half and tried it again and it worked on that as well which would be equivalent to 34 pieces. The end of the finished staple was completely through all the sheets of the paper and held them securely. I was impressed with that. The actual stapler is light weight and doesn't have a very heavy duty feel to it, but it performs well. It comes filled with staples. You can extend the whole stapler so you can staple on to bulletin boards or even longer paper where a stapler wouldn't normally be able to reach. Overall, it's a good working stapler.
