I replaced a cheap battery operated stapler because it was constantly jamming and not reliable. I spent a few extra bucks to get this one.
As soon as I opened the box I knew I had made the right decision. The quality was obvious as soon as I held it in my hand. Well-made and solid.
The first thing I did was to install the six AA batteries. I knew that was needed from the listing so I had purchased those ahead of time. The batteries had a good snug fit and loaded easily. I did have to study the directions to find the battery storage bay. After I did that I found it on the very bottom and slid it off with no problems. I opened the tray to load staples and much to my pleasant surprise it was already loaded. That is a very nice touch from the vendor and something you don't see very often.
It comes with a power supply but I like the portability of battery operated.
I also like the fact that it uses standard staples which I have a good supply of. Even though there is an adjustment setting for how far from the edge of the paper the staple is placed, I will not use that very often. I set it to staple as close to the edge as possible and it'll stay at that setting. But, it is good to know I can make an adjustment if necessary.
I used it all day yesterday and never once had a problem. As soon as you insert the paper to trip the trigger, the stapler responds instantly and efficiently. You can just tell it's made right. I haven't stapled more than five sheets of 20 pound paper at a time, but I believe it will comfortably do more than five. I'm extremely pleased with my purchase.
