[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was my first time upholstery. My plan was I will try this staple , if it doesn’t work, I will return it. But it was easy to handle, and also faster.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have been using it for basic things around the house. It works great, does what it needs to and is inexpensive. I would recommend this product to others.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Worth every penny! Used while putting up insulation for 300 sq ft. No way it could have been done in a day without this tool. It does double fire a few times but we found that if you don't press too hard, then it won't double fire.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently needed to staple burlap around young trees we had recently planted. I researched and decided on the T50. I am very pleased in the ease using this product and would recommend. I needed to staple into wood stakes, no problem.
So I'll be the first to admit that I'm cheap. However, when I buy a product, I'm still paying something for it. And, if a company is selling a product for a certain price, for a specific use than that product should work. OR you should put a bit more thought into what you're designing and charge a little more. So first off, I have bigger hands with long fingers for a female, so it stands to reason that a staple gun should be fine to use. Since you have so thoughtfully provided a pic uploader, I've included photos. Self explanatory via photos. So first PLEASE make the hand squeeze closer to the staple gun or shape it so it flattens out instead of curves away! I'm not sure if it's possible to lighten the pressure poundage but it's impossible to squeeze handle one handed in the "should be able to but can't" hand position. But if the handle were closer, it might help.
Also, about a year ago, the thing jammed on me while using it. I took it apart, unjammed the staple gun but it wouldn't work. So I thought I was going to have to buy a new one so I "beat the crap" out of this one (hit it with a hammer, threw it down hard on conrete, etc.) Decided to see if it would work again. Other than the staple entry being a little bent and having to push the staples hard into the reservoir, it's worked without another jam. And I use this thing all the time. But I shouldn't have to beat something to make it work.
Pros: anything and everything
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hey there, thank you for taking time to provide detailed information and photos in your review.
We are sorry you've been disappointed by the design and performance of this tool! We recommend using this tool by fully wrapping your hand around the lever, similar to your "ideal hand position" photo, because this best utilizes your grip strength to squeeze the lever.
However, we'd like to touch base with you directly about this to make sure we fully understand your feedback and to better understand the troubleshooting steps you tried after getting a jam in this tool.
We do stand behind the T50 with a limited lifetime warranty, so thank you for giving us an opportunity to address this!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The T50 heavy duty stapler is very handy to have! It works well and can be used for many projects. The staples are readily available at most stores.
