I can do things with my hands, or at least I try to. I had a few projects I wanted to do but didn't have a stapler so I looked at a few and settled on this one. I love that this gun can handle different types of staples depending on the project! It comes with everything you need to start using it right out of the box. My mother-in-law needed to touch up the upholstery on a chair and I was able to offer her this handy tool. It was easy to use, didn't stick, and held the chair in place with just a few clips. As a middle-aged woman, I was concerned that it would be difficult to squeeze the handle to extract the staples, but that's not the case at all. It's a good tool to have on hand, not something I'll use every day but definitely something I'll need and it will make my projects easier to complete.
