Bostitch Office InPower Spring-Powered Premium Desktop Stapler - One Finger, No Effort, Blue/Silver (1118)

I have had this stapler for about a year, and it performs as a stapler should: it fastens 2 or more sheets of paper together and can be used for tacking.Pros: it easily lives up to its 28-sheet capacity, and fires the staple into the stack like a bullet with just a light press of the handle. I have even stapled as many as 37 sheets, and the staple went through effortlessly, but I had to manually bend/flatten the prongs on the back of the document with a letter opener; not a bad thing, considering I was 9 sheets over the stated capacity! It could maybe fasten 40 sheets of standard copier paper, but the limiting factor is the length of the staples, not the power of the stapler. The PaperPro seems well made of plastic and metal; it takes standard staples and loads easily; and it operates with just a light press.Cons: although one of the descriptive images on Amazon's website gives the impression that it can stand on its "nose" on the desktop, it absolutely can not. They way its designed, it simply won't stand on end. This was a real disappointment, as I had hoped to keep it on my desk, but it resides in my drawer due to its normal-sized footprint. I considered deducting 1 star for this design oversight (the manufacturer could have easily tweaked it to stand up), but it works so well I had to go 5 stars.Three additional points: First, the pictures (all three of them found on different part of the Amazon webpage) show the staples being loaded into the stapler upside down. Besides being shamefully stupid and laughable, following this "image-guidance" could damage the stapler with the first push, and at the very least you will staple nothing but the inside of your stapler (and have to clear the resulting obstruction). Second, a picture shows a person loading the stapler through some sort of flap. There is no flap; just turn the stapler over, open the baseplate 180 degrees, and load as usual. And third, when you open the base plate to use the stapler in "tacking mode," the charging slide opens automatically for refilling, so just ram it shut before trying to use the stapler as a tacker.Other than big, heavy office staplers I've used at work for joining 100-page documents, this is the best stapler I've found. If you keep trying -- unsuccessfully -- to join thick documents up to 30 or so pages, this is the stapler you want.

I brought this stapler from home when I volunteer at my son's school, because every single stapler in the building is unequal to the task of tacking children's work to the bulletin board in the hallway. I would spend forever out there, feeling lame, surrounded by ruined staples, just trying to tack up their work in the hallway. Finally, I GOOGLED a stapler that could work on bulletin boards, and found this. It's like using a staple gun for bulletin boards. Works so easily. Soon, the other moms were borrowing it, and I just bought another one to give to my son's teacher.I have seen a review that complained that it's too powerful to use on just a few sheets of paper. That one must have been defective, because I tack single sheets to the wall, as well as staple two sheets together, all the time just fine. It's never jammed, and I use it frequently.This is the best stapler I've ever owned. Honestly, before I bought one, it would seem strange for anyone to wax poetic about a stapler. Times change when you've got an entire school of elementary students filing past you to lunch while you are STILL trying to tack up the &*(&*&(*& artwork, without using any naughty words, shoving the stapler against the unforgiving wall surface for the 5,565th time, but the staples of an inferior stapler keep bending and falling out. Then you have to go borrow the secretary's magnet to pick up all the dead staple carnage. Trust me, after an afternoon of this, you would be gleefully telling all your volunteer mom friends about this little dynamo. Instead of sweating and swearing and trying to force those little &(&*& staples into a bulletin board that must be made out of granite, everything goes up with a touch of a finger.

Great, sturdy stapler. No need to pick it up, just stick paper underneath and press the top down a bit. Snap! Stapled. Rarely jams. Overall, super happy!

Quite simply, and without a doubt, this is the best stapler I have ever had. Everything about it is perfect:It has a very sturdy metal construction, so you know it will last a long time. Even the plastic parts are quality plastic. Unless you drop it from 10 feet into the stone floor, this will outlast your pet!It staples effortlessly. I originally researched some staplers for my mother who has arthritis. She can't open jars and bottles, and had a really hard time stapling with regular staplers. The first PaperPro stapler I bought for her was a godsend, and from then on I've never looked back and have always been buying from this brand. This particular stapler can staple up to 25 sheets.It uses regular staples. That was a key decision in purchasing. I didn't want to buy specialty staples, I wanted regular staples so I can just run to the local store if we ran out and needed some right away.And finally, it looks great. Just pick out a spot for it on your desk, and it'll stay there for years(besides when you can to put in new staples) as you'll never need to move it or pick it up. Just feed in the sheets, and apply one finger - MAGIC!

Lo uso en la oficina de manera cotidiana, y el producto es eficiente y eficaz, además el material es cómodo y duradero

Great stapler, no jams, it's metal so it's got some weight but the easy touch is great and easily does more than the stated capacity. The staples it comes with are on the bottom in the rubber part for those who couldn't find them, and loads effortlessly.

At work, I normally staple 8+ sheets together 10 times a day. Sometimes, these "packages" increase to 15+ sheets. In addition, I staple two sheets together perhaps 20 times a day. My hand starts to feel this, using a conventional stapler on a busy day.This stapler, while not exactly "one finger", makes it 20x less effort to staple and I had a big grin on my face every time I stapled the first few days after buying it. It seems almost ridiculous that an office tool would have such a big impact on my work, but it removed one minor annoyance.It's a must have if you do a lot of stapling or have hand/muscle issues. It's built solidly, so it should last a long time, but if the spring breaks one day, I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.The only small issues is that it's easy to knock over when standing upright (so I leave it sitting normally on my desk) and it's quite loud (if that's an issue in a quiet office).

Bin auf das Gerät durch einen Kollegen aufmerksam geworden und hätte nicht gedacht das ich mich mal für nen Bürotacker begeistern konnte. Aber hey das Teil ist kein Vergleich mit den Standard Geräten von Leitz die jeder kennt. Easy Bedienung mit einem Finger möglich. Vernünftige Verarbeitung und Aufbewahrungsfach für mehr Zinken im Bodenfach. Ein Must have für jeden Beamten der etwas auf sich hält und bestimmt ein tolles Geschenk für überkorrekte Kollegen.

Really like this stapler. Takes very little force to fire the staple, but you need to make sure and apply good pressure all the way down to ensure staple ends clamp properly on back side of page.
