I returned it. It will not work properly 95% of the time.

I returned it. In 95% of the cases it doesn't work properly. For the 5% for whom it really worked, deleting small posts just got annoying. It's hard to see and you certainly can't sew them up.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Not satisfied

There were no directions.

I'm a quilter, I use it to stabilize my designs. This is my second. There were no instructions included and the needle is difficult to insert or replace. And it has to be accurate, otherwise there could be holes in the falbrick.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • for old

Needle breaks easily

I bought this staple gun with high hopes. I have been basting two small baby blankets and a needle is Cancelled. I followed the instructions and was very careful. I am not at all satisfied with this product. I would buy another brand. I will return it.

Pros
  • Product Size: 7.7"L x 6.8"W x 0.8"H
Cons
  • Not sure

Revainrating 2 out of 5

it seemed that "drop outs " often - about 2 of each.

seems to have frequent "misfires" - about 2 out of 5 trigger pulls resulted in webbing not connecting and about 1 out of 12-15 resulted in jams; 3 out of 5 worked well but the ratio is not very good

Pros
  • Includes 500 thumbtacks
Cons
  • There are new competitors

Not as good as the 24 year old I had

Have had this for over 24 years and liked it for occasional projects. Donated it to the patchwork club when he moved. Then I got a surprise grandson. Needed another pistol so bought this blue one. It pinched and ripped off most of the nails. From 30-40 I got 6 to work. I know how to use this weapon but have read the entire manual in case anything changes. The old one had some problems. But this one seems to have a problem with the needle or the nails. Suspect the needle has a burr given how it…

Pros
  • For labeling and tagging things
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
