This is a great little staple gun. I bought it to put up christmas lights on the cheap, but I've been able to use it for several projects. It doesn't have the best driving power (example; stapling the backing on a TV cabinet, the staples stuck about ~1/8th inch out of the wood), but that's easily fixed with a hammer and 30 seconds of your time. It's a great staple gun at a great price, and you won't be disappointed for your DIY around the house usage.
If ,you use a lot T-50 , the staple holder jam staples.

Dear Kori14,
I appreciate you're taking the time to review the T50. Please contact us at customercare@arrowfastener.com or 800-776-2228 if there is anything we can do to assist with a jamming issue.
I just bought this stapler to do some repair on ceiling tiles. It worked great. I do wish it had a little smaller hand grip as I have small hands. But the power was good and did what I expected.
I also like the fact that it uses six different size staples. I'm sure to find many other times to use this.
Pros: Roofing, Crafting, General Repairs, insulation
I purchased this stapler when the handle on my previous stapler (different brand) stopped engaging reliably. I've been using it for a couple weeks now, and am so far very pleased with it. As a DIYer there are some specialty tools that I can get away with on a bargain. However there are certain regularly used core tools where it pays to go with quality (claw hammer, screw drivers, hand saws, etc.). With this stapler I feel like I've gotten a quality tool that will last, for not that much more than the 'bargains'. It looks just like my Dad's old one, and it's still made in the USA.
Pros: General Repairs
I would recommend this to a friend!

Dear HoneyDoer,
Thank you for taking the time to write the review and for your endorsement of our T50 staple gun. I'm glad it is a core tool in your tool box.
I have always used the t50 along with your hammer tacker and have always had great success. The products hold up through the many times they have been dropped from roofs and ladders.
