[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this electric staple gun for making screen panels for a very large porch. Worked great and cut my work time in half.
Perfect for attaching landscape fabric to back of timber retaining wall

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have 80 feet of landscape timber retaining wall that I needed to attach landscape fabric to the back to keep soil from entering and clogging the perforated drainage pipe. My hands would have gone numb with the non-electric staple gun I've had for years. This corded electric staple gun was perfect for the job. Lightweight, easy to operate, worked perfectly and no hand numbness!
This product made the building of our catio so much easier! My daughter and I tried using a manual staple gun at first which is fine for small jobs, but we’ll end up using probably 5000 staples for this project. The gun jams occasionally but is easily fixed by opening the staple compartment, then turning the gun off for a few seconds. Overall a great product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice size and weight. Hard at times to fully depress the anti-firing tip when stapling several layers of radiant barrier insulation. Wish it could hold more staples but then the size would become a problem when stapling near the outer house walls. The cord did get in the way but I didn't want to bother with battery life/cycles/runtime/etc.
Purchased to Aid in Reupholstering Motorcycle Seat after Back Rest Install

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Already had two manual Arrow staplers...one large and one smaller in size...and thought an electric stapler would be stronger and more efficient during the process of reinstalling my motorcycle seat cover after installing a Utopia back rest. Well, I was sorta right and sorta wrong on the electric stapler being better than the manual ones. So, I ended up using the new electric stapler on the areas of the seat that were easy to access and I could get at using the electric one. The head of the electric unit was large and cumbersome to fit into tight areas that I needed to get to as I went all the way around the seat pan. Plus, I had trouble being able to position the staple where I wanted it to go with the electric unit. I was more apt to shoot the staple further back than I wanted to which resulted in a less than optimal positioning of the staple. And finally, I couldn't get the electric unit to fire a staple in the tight areas because the actuator has to be depressed in order to get the staple to eject and I could rarely get it depressed enough to make it fire. So, I ended up using my smaller manual staple gun for more than half of the staples I needed to sink which were located in tighter and more restrictive places around the seat. Actually, the small manual made a much better looking finished job than the electric one did?? Really surprised me! Oh well, maybe I'll come up with some projects in the future where the electric stapler will come in handy.
Pros: Upholstery
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello, Thank you for sharing your experience with our tools. Your situation is not unusual. Because of the safety feature, which requires the tool to be firmly pressed against a surface prior to firing, it's sometimes tricky to get into the tight corners. People often mention completing the majority of a job with an electric, then using a manual for the tight corners.
Hope you will continue to get a lot of use from both tools! -- Your Arrow Fastener team
