After years of using a manual stapler, I broke down and purchased an electric one. I process an enormous amount of paperwork and go thru a strip of staples on a daily basis. This simple device has been a life saver! It saves me a great deal of time and aggravation. Solidly constructed and has yet to jam.

I have owned this stapler for over a year. It always works and never jams, even though I have given it plenty of reason to do so. It uses an electro-magnetic plunger which is very fast and extremely powerful. It is a bit loud, but I can put up with that for dependability. I am very happy with this product.

We have these all over our office. It justs works. (Well, it doesn't work if you put in too many sheets. But it doesn't break.)

It does make a loud, satisfying bang. Might not be the best choice if you have sleeping babies next to your home office.

We started with just 1 of these for our invoice lady to use. Then found it to be so useful, everyone wants to borrow these from her. Now we have 7 of these, 1 for each. It's a great convinience.

It's meant for light / medium daily use. Our heaviest user goes thru about 400 staples per day, 6 days a week. The machine lasted about 8-10 month before dying. I say for $35 it's worth it, saves you tons of energy from manual stapling. Use the standard staples and it hardly ever jams.

I bought this product to use in my third grade classroom. It does look bullet proof. The stapling mechanism lasted about a year. I, too, thought I just got a lemon, so I re-ordered the same product. The second one lasted about three months. I don't do heavy stapling, usually no more than 5 sheets at a time. I find it is a bit difficult to get the drawer open so that you can reload it, also.

I purchased an electric stapler as we staple a good number of homework assignments twice a week, and we thought this would make things easier. In a matter of a couple of months the product went from working well, to having issues, and then it completely broke down. The stapler was always treated well and did not endure anything harsher than sitting on a desk in the same place and doing what it is supposed to do.

The issues that the stapler started to experience were that it would only staple one set of paper and lock up. It usually did this right after we loaded a new set of staples, and once we got down a few staples, the issue would stop occurring (we could resolve the issue by opening and shutting the staple slot). Then it become more frequent, to the point where it will now only ever staple one set of paper and then have to be reset by opening and closing.

A stapler is a really simple piece of machinery and this simply shouldn't happen. This is a poor quality manufacturer and I would suggest purchasing a more expensive electronic stapler unless you will rarely use it (and then why are you buying an electric stapler?).

Purchased this stapler from Amazon less than 3 months ago. Comes with no manual or any support material for troubleshooting. Died without a whimper even though used sparingly. Feels like throwing moneay away. AVOID THIS PRODUCT!

Stanley Bostitch Electric Full Strip 20 Sheet Capacity Stapler With Anti-Jam Mechanism (02210) The stapler works great. No jamming problems and easy to refill with standard staples. It is a little loud but worth it. The price was better than other close models I looked at.

It's my first, and I absolutely love it! Yup, it makes an audible 'bang' when you use it, but that's the power of a good unit - I can imagine how if they tried to make it quieter how it simply wouldn't go thru the paper very well. Nope, this unit is fantastic, just like it is.

With mass mailings and no big machine to do the work, using the electric stapler has paid off both in time spent and money saved.
