I am not very strong or mechanically inclined, so this staple gun is perfect for me. It doesn't take much effort to squeeze and replace staples and I am very satisfied with it. Not to mention that the customer support at Arrow has been top notch!
good solid tool, which can be used for many projects.

I used this tool to hang my christmas lights. It was very easy to operate, and handle. The only thing I would have liked to be added, is a guide for wire placement.
This was a huge save on the roof portion of the chicken coop, being short I had a hard time holding the wire and nailing it at the same time, this stapler worked like a charm to hold the wire in place so I could nail in down. not too heavy, it is hard to squeeze if you have small hands, maybe in future they will have a small rubber grip on the handle to keep your hands from slipping after prolonged use. did not jam up used around 200 staples in one job and still going strong. did not use the wire attachment, used steel nails into wood without problems other than my poor aim!
This is that stapler that your dad has, your grandpa has, and pretty much every working man you've ever known. And there's a reason. It never dies! You cannot go wrong with this stapler, it has been around forever, and won't be going away soon!
Pros: Flooring, Hanging Targets, Roofing, Upholstery, Wiring, General Repairs, insulation
The only downside to this product is that it does not accept the pre-packaged length of T50 staples- you must snap off approx. an inch of staples to allow the retaining spring to be inserted
Pros: Upholstery, Crafting, General Repairs, insulation
My husband is the person using the stapler and he has to put lots of his weight behind pressing down to get the staple to go straight--and flat--into the wood that we are putting upholstery fabric onto. More than half the time, the staple goes part way in and is pressed into a U-shape in the middle of the staple that should be flat, or, straight across. Then we have to hammer it the rest of the way in. About every 10th staple has to be pulled out and that spot restapled.
But, it is actually better than the electric stapler we had bought--and returned. Perhaps it will do better when broken in, so to speak. Or if we learn to use it better!
