Arthritis makes electric staplers the way to go for me!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve always used Arrow staplers but as I’ve gotten older I’ve had to change from manual to electric due to arthritis.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife needed a footstool recovered, so I got an early Christmas present. Worked perfectly right out of the package and I'm sure I'll find many other uses.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I went to the hardware store to buy an electric staple gun, I was distracted by the bright yellow, slick looking Bostich stapler. I have owned nothing but Arrow staplers in the past but I was momentarily seduced by the glittery Bostich and I bought it. No sooner had I removed it from the package and used it two or three times before I realized that it just wasn´t as powerful as I was used to. I packaged it right back up and took it back and bought the Arrow T50ACD. First shot was perfect and just like the former staple guns from Arrow that I have owned.
Like ALL staple guns, the angle at which you hold the gun makes a difference. What is really nice about the T50 is that you do NOT have to bear down on the gun to get it to fire into the surface and remain flat. In fact, sometimes, the less pressure you apply, the more deeply the staple embeds itself. It may have something to do with the ¨Spiral Drive¨ technology. I am very happy with the gun and recommend it. ¨All that glitters is not Gold!¨ Shame on me for the momentary lapse!
Pros: Crafting, General Repairs, insulation, Upholstery
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to handle, great design, allowed me to attach 10 mil plastic to the ceiling of my crawl space, insulation in place for another 50 years.
It's really awesome it's easy to use I like how the green light flashes when you need to reload buts it's a little heavy. Overall fantastic but the weight was an issue having to hold it over your head for an extended amount of time is straining
