This is my second Stanley Bostitch power stapler. I've taken a lot of ribbing from my co-workers about not using a regular stapler, but they are not the ones doing all of the paperwork for the company and the ability to staple one handed is invaluable. My first stapler was a 2-20 page unit that has worked well for years. I decided to upgrade and take the first unit home so I can do work at home more effectively too.

The new unit is very powerful, about as loud as the first one (which I actually like, I like to know something has been STAPLED and not gently caressed with a piece of metal which may or may not have actually bonded the pages together). In fact, it is so powerful, if I only have 2 sheets to staple my 1/4" staples tend to punch right through the first page almost entirely! I talked to tech support who mentioned in their delightful Massachusetts accent that I should use 3/8" staples for less than 20 pages and 1/4" for 20-40 pages. Not wanting to have to switch staples whenever I use the unit, I stuck with the original 1/4" staples. Face it, I'm lazy, that's why I got a power stapler to begin with. <grin>. Other than the over penetration issue with a mere 2 pages (and not enough to badly affect how the staple holds the paper), an excellent unit.

I love this product. I am a teacher and use this stapler several hundred times each week. I have never had a problem with it. My fifth grade students use it with ease as well.

I bought this stapler for my home office. I often work until 1 AM here. The problem is that our bird room is next door and they're sleeping ( could be your kids too ) and this thing is pretty loud. It sounds like a hammering sound when you use it. I didn't know that these could be this loud, I'd seen someone else using an electric before and it was very quiet, so I just assumed they all were. Not true apparently. But it works fine, so if it doesn't matter, for example if you're in a regular 9-5 office, this could even help you sound busy and industrious, I suppose. I just wouldn't recommend it for a home office where you work late at night and someone may be sleeping nearby.
