No consistency in product.
I have had one of these for many years and it worked great! Bought another one for another office and it's terrible!! The amount of pressure it takes to staple actually hurts my hand. And 9/10 times when I go to pick it up, the top part lifts up and comes back down on my fingers. Ouch! I use this thing at least 50 times a day.
Very disappointed.

The big complaint I have with this stapler is that the staples sit very deep in a well, and there isn't a "box" for them to sit over so it is very difficult to drop smaller numbers of staples in and have them stand up properly.
Feels solid (all metal), but I returned it before giving it a good test drive so I can't comment on how it performs.

Should include staples.
Too bad it didn’t come with the proper staples. But that’s okay.

Disappointed
Tried it, but did not crimp the staples. Staff was great and let me exchange for a different style.

I really wanted to like this stapler - my past experiences with Bostitch have been great. But...every time I pickup this stapler the bottom flips / falls open; there is no tension between the top and bottom keeping the mechanism closed.

Good for the price
Not as "robust" as my previous stapler but adequate for the weekly bill-paying staple bills together usage.

Always good
Can't go wrong. I've used Bostitch staplers for many years. They don't last forever, but you can expect them to last a very long time.

Don't bother
Don't waste your money....every other time it is used, it needs to fixed and the broken staple removed so it will work again. It's a shame as I thought this was a good name stapler?
