[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this at Lowe's in order to recover a chair. This made the job so easy that I went around the house looking for somethng else I could recover. When one no longer has the strength to use a hand stapler, this is the perfect tool. It does all the work for you. Very happy with the purchase and will be looking to see what other projects it can tackle.
Pros: Upholstery
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A time saver but needs a couple refinements

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to use when installing some Armstrong 1132G ceiling tiles to pine furring strips on a couple of bedroom ceilings. I needed to put 420 pcs and using my trusty old T50 manual stapler was going to be tiring.
The T50ACD did the job but wasn't consistent in driving the staples which sometimes required a hammer and punch to set them flush. You can hear the driving mechanism as it fires each time and tell when a staple will be driven flush or when it comes up short.The "Spiral-Drive Technology" needs some fine tuning to be more consistent.
Another issue is with the rubber overmold on the nose of the stapler. With an old manual T50 you can drive a staple very close to the edge of something because the nose of the stapler is metal. This works well and allows one to place a staple in the middle of the narrow (3/8"-1/2" wide) flange of the ceiling tile. The T50ACD has a thicker plastic housing along with an approximately 1/8" thick rubber overmold on the nose and that prevented me from placing a staple on the flange of the tile. I was about to return the T50ACD and find another electric stapler when I realized I could trim the rubber overmold on the stapler nose back a bit and get the staples up onto the ceiling tile flange.
Pros: ceiling tile

This stapler made my job so much easier.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this electric stapler when I was trying to cover the seats of my dining room chairs. Using the regular Arrow stapler was just too hard for my hands. I could only shoot a couple staples before I had to rest my hands. This was a great tool for the job I was doing.I have told all my friends!
Pros: Upholstery
I would recommend this to a friend!

So Far It Seems Like A Good Buy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just bought and took it out of package. Seems to be well made and ergonomic. I had trouble putting in the staples until I realized it doesn't load like my manual T50 or any other staple gun I have used.
The staples do not straddle the pull out bar but in fact drop into a slot of the the upside down gun. Then the pull out bar is pushed in to lock in and feed the staples. This is actually very easy when you know how to do it.
I tested the gun on a 2x4 through upholstery vinyl. And the staples all were buried deep into the wood. I have not as yet actually used it for a project so I can't comment on durability or long time use.
But so far... Great!

very regonomic and easy to use. Much less effort to use than a manual stapler.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am using this T50ACD for hard to reach overhead vapor barrier install. I have the manual pistol grip Arrow T50 I use for all other applications, but use the electric stapler for the long reach and it works great with out the need to push hard against strapping to start a staple.
Pros: insulation
I would recommend this to a friend!

Much better than my previous electric stapler

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My old stapler would make a buzzing sound and then send a shock wave through your hand. This one doesn't do that and (using 1/4in arrow staples) securely attached upholstery.
Pros: General Repairs, Upholstery
I would recommend this to a friend!
