This is a pretty useless kit. I got it mostly for the mug, and even that was disappointingly small, very cheap-feeling, and poorly printed. The whole thing is basically a cheap novelty knock-off of catchphrases and memes from the movie. It's cool the first time you start going through it, but by the time you've even finished your "inventory" of items, the thrill is gone.

it's a little dinky one, too bad. would be a great secret santa gift at the office tho.

This kit has several great items, but some of them are a bit questionable. The TPS report covers,starter flair, Jump to Conclusions mat, and Initech coffee mug are worth the price of admission alone. The Red Stapler is very small and cheaply made, and I don't think I could find a use for the PC Load Letter sticker, short of slapping it on my monitor at home. The book that comes with the kit just outlines all of the pieces that are in the box, so nothing special there.

The box is really cute. The mug is a classic, but WTF on the dinky, mini stapler. Note that on page nine of the booklet, it says, "In this kit, you'll find your own personal red stapler just like the one in Office Space." NOT.

when i first opened the box, i was wondering where the hell the red stapler was. then i realized it was inside the mug.

yes, the red stapler is tiny. even smaller than your typical mini-stapler, i would say. and you only get one small piece of flair. the "pc load letter" sticker is also pretty small.

i like this kit for the mug, the "is this good for the company?" banner, and the "jump to conclusions" mat.

i was just looking forward to getting a cool red stapler...

I knew the red stapler was not "actual size" but wasn't concerned about it because the recipient of this gift already has the real thing.
I bought it mostly for the mug, which is cheaply made, and has an uncentered logo. The "jump to conclusions" mat arrived awkwardly folded in the box and the print is chipping off at all of the folds. The kit is also missing the starter flair.
Overall, I would skip the kit. You can probably take a photo of the logo to a specialty shop and have it printed on a quality mug.

I had actually seen this set in Barnes & Noble once before, so I had a fairly good idea of what to expect when I ordered it. I would highly recommend this set for huge fans of "Office Space".

That being said, though, please realize that this is a Novelty gift. If you are looking for a stand-alone gift idea I don't quite think this would do it. However, if you know someone that is a big fan of the movie this would be an excellent addition to a present. My manager really liked it and laughed at every piece of the set as she took it out of the box.

If you can get this for $10 or so I would say go for it! If you are looking for a nice gift and this is your only option I would probably pass.

First of all the box came in ripped and most of the items inside were not up to par of what I thought it would entail. I love this movie and thought it'd be a great gift idea. Was not impressed.....

I bought this at a Barnes and Noble Book store. The box has no pictures of what's in it, or I wouldn't have gotten it. The box says it's Milton's red stapler. It is in NO WAY a full size Swingline brand stapler! It is a tot stapler, and not even Swingline brand. The mug looks like not even a second, more like a third. There's weird discolorations and bubbles all over it. The "flair" is nothing more than a black and white (cheaper to produce!) button that has the "case of the Mondays" line on it. I was terribly disappointed by the whole thing.

I bought this for a coworker as a secret pal Christmas gift. He loves to recite lines from the movie and owns the regular size red stapler. He simply loved everything in the box. As he opened it and removed each item, it was like watching a boy on Christmas morning (he is 31). He even put the 'Jump to conclusions' mat under his clear plastic rug protector (how cool was that). I also got him the Office Space box of flair, another item on amazon. Everything was better than expected. It is rare that you can find something for a coworker that they will truly enjoy. Both purchases fell below the office limit on gifts. Perfect office Christmas!!!
