Online review code: 1117. I recently remodeled my shed, which included the installation of a new roof and shingles. I used the T50 to staple the black paper that goes on underneath the shingles. The precision of the T50 was remarkable! The product was light in weight and efficient. This part of the project did not take much time, which I owe the credit to the sturdiness of the T50. I would highly recommend this product when doing home improvements!

My T50 Manual stapler has been handed down three generations so far....My Grandmother's T50 was put to good use throughout her home on her many DIY projects and when she died, it went to my Mother who is also quite handy. When I got my first home, I was saddled with many projects that required the use of such a stapler, But I sadly made the wrong decision purchasing a competitor's badly designed, and MUCH cheaper costing product. After using mine for the first two or three projects, it had deteriorated to the point where it would require slamming the stapler against a hard object before the plunger would retract to fire the next staple.( Not how how I would usually treat my tools.) It then got to a point where I had to smack it with a framing hammer every time just to get it to work. Imagine doing this on top of a 15 foot extension ladder, and you can visualize my frustration, and apparent lack of knowledge of the excellent craftsmanship, materials , and design of your timeless product. I then happened to be at my parents house one weekend griping about my ill-gotten purchase, and the sluggishness of having to use an inferior product. My Mother then mentioned that she had HER MOTHER'S T50, and would I like to have it. I was surprised when she handed it to me, Still in its ORIGINAL packaging, and looking so shiny, and barely used. Fast forward FIFTEEN years, and it is my GO-TO choice for lots of projects around the house. And is still functioning like it did so many years ago when it left your factory. The only maintainance it receives is a liberal spray coating inside and out of silicone spray once a year, and that is it! Sadly the original packaging did not fair as well with me and is lost to time, But the T50 will definitely be around to be handed down to whoever is to be my heir apparent. Lucky Them. Thanks for making an excellent product.....And memories to go with it!
Pros: Crafting, General Repairs, Hanging Targets, Upholstery, Wiring
Worked great. I was stapling through hard plywood some some of the staples werent flush with the wood so I had to hammer them down...but I am a girl so that could be part of the issue.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this product many, many times and love it. It is virtually maintenance free. I have had no trouble with it at all. I highly recommend it.
