There were protective stops on the hole punch and it took several minutes to figure out how to remove them. A few directions on the box would have been nice.
The adjustable hole punch is nice however it is disturbing after a couple punches I was forced to adjust the hole puncher because as I slide my paper in the puncher it would not allow my paper to fully emerge in the hole puncher. It was time consuming. However once I got it cleared it did the job that I needed it to do. I wouldn't recommend it for a major project just for someone that don't need to use it a lot. I may have to return it because I bought it for my business and I need something that is more durable and can handle more documents at one time.
Finally a product that has not been changed to be mainly constructed with plastic. It is made of metal as it should be. I am not fond of the "new" electric pencil sharpners paper cutters etc that are being fashioned with predominantly plastic parts. I would assume that the reason products are being manufactured using plastic rather than metal is a supposed cost saving measure for the manufacturer. The problem with that is that while costing less to make that cost savings does not get passed on to the consumer. Prices are ridiculous and quality poor. Except in the instance of this product which is still made the "old fashioned way" and priced reasonably.
