No better than other tackers.

Doesn't seem to clog staples and is better than any other stapler I have. It is also very difficult to work with. I actually thought it was broken because the handle wouldn't go down. Turns out you just need superhuman strength to push it. Not sure why it only accepts tent style suspenders. What's the purpose of a staple that doesn't rest fully on the object (the seat of a chair in my case) you're stapling?

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Easy repairability

Decent hand stapler - don't forget to buy the included staples

It's really hard to find matching staples anywhere. Bought mine from Revain. Not bad for a hand tacker. You need decent grip strength to use this and it's tedious to use many staplers at once. Used it to fix something small. The braces were not included (the description doesn't say so, but I see in other comments that people were expecting them to be included).

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Quality

Good stapler but don't recommend Bostitch staples

Simpler design than my old staplers, doesn't affect performance and seems to make the stapler less prone to jamming. It has an initial load factor that requires a lot more hand strength than my other staplers. The end result is greater penetration of the staples. However, I would not recommend Bostitch braces as their blunt ends are not as effective as other brands of pointed end braces.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • ---

Not bad. Don't forget the brackets either.

The case looked worn and loose. The packaging didn't live up to my expectations but I needed it badly now to go back to school so I decided to keep it to myself. Although the box was in disarray, the stapler appeared to be in good condition. No signs of use. My last one which I paid $10 for broke after a day of use and I was very disappointed and wanted something permanent. So far, so good. It feels really solid and the rubber grip on the handle is definitely useful. I love it and hope it lasts

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • High price

Staples great, great power for a hand stapler

Love this stapler. I'm not sure how some people still manage to give it mediocre reviews. I feel like this is way better than any construction stapler I've had before, even one I've used in my life. I'm sure there are better electric options, but this is a whole new area. Just remember that you need to buy crown braces for this. Takes no default. That was my only surprise, but they are worth it because they work better. I'm a carpenter and I think when you do this you want to do it right.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions

This is the worst stapler I have ever used in my life.

This product is a waste of money. I did some research to find the best product for upholstery projects. The Bostitch pad stapler was the most popular device. Unfortunately, I did not open or attempt to use the device before the return deadline. Not only does the T-6 require special, more expensive staples than standard staplers (which I'd be happy to live with if the damn thing works well), the gun either won't fire or jams after every successful stab attempt. Most of the time he just won't…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
