- Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2024Number of Items: 1Style: 20 SheetsVerified PurchaseThis stapler is just what we needed. The regular staplers had too big of a nose to staple the project we were making. We were able to get into the Shallow tight space with this stapler. It worked great!

- Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2024Number of Items: 1Style: 20 SheetsVerified PurchaseThis is a good quality craft stapler. The style allows you to get it to tight spots and is easy to use with on hand. It does uses smaller staples, but they are good quality and not expensive. It has not Jamed on me and I was using with cardboard and chip board.
Good for mums and display building. I reach for this instead of my original stapler now for most tasks.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2016Number of Items: 1Style: 20 SheetsVerified PurchaseThe simple design of this stapler should make it easy to use with any hand size. Though designed to handle up to 20 sheets, the force required to get a good staple seems very low indeed. I've tried the "Soft Touch" staplers, with mixed results. Though they do fire with less force than conventional staplers, very often they simply don't fully penetrate and clinch. I tested the P3 by stapling 10 folded sheets of 24-pound copy paper. The staple was perfect, with a nice clinch. Made of metal where strength is needed and wear will occur, I see no reason why this product should not give good service for years.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2024Number of Items: 1Style: 20 SheetsVerified PurchaseI bought this for a very specific project and was unable to use. When I took the band off the handle of the stapler, parts fell out everywhere. I never even got to load staples in it! I have no idea where the parts came from or how they go back in. There were no clear schematics that show how the parts fit together for me to try to put back together. After an hour of trying to figure it out, all I ended up with were scarred parts and an unusable stapler. I'm VERY disappointed.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2024Number of Items: 1Style: 20 SheetsVerified PurchaseThese are easy to use and function perfect thru 2,4 and 6 layers of an Amazon packing envelope. I doused them with Wd-40 and open and closed them a hundred times to remove the sticky packing lubricant. Full length of staples were easy to load . The spring had no trouble retracting to accommodate the staples. I got the 1/4 inch Bostitch staples and they folded over nicely though the legs cross over each other on the material I tested.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2021Number of Items: 1Style: 20 SheetsVerified PurchaseI really like this stapler with its long reach and easy grip clamping when make my kid’s Mums! But it doesn’t use standard size staples, which in my hast I overlooked. Wish it came with a small starter box. Although I did not return it immediately once I found out it couldn’t use standard staples, I took a chance a order some. Glad I did b/c it made my work so much easier. I think the company could avoid potential immediate returns if they included a box of staples.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, very easy to use.
Number of Items: 1Style: 20 SheetsVerified PurchaseI have problems with my hands (RSI) and my grip strength is pitiful but this is so easy for me to use. Feels good in my hands, not heavy to hold, and staples well. And tiny staples which is exactly what I wanted.
Cons - well there aren't any really...nope, nothing comes to mind.
Excellent product. I'm happy to pay for quality.
