I really hoped Klein wouldn't let me down like the Gardner Bender stapler I got from HomeDepot. Unfortunately it just doesn't work π€·ββοΈ. I've only tried a few staples, all the way, half the way. None of the brackets will work!
If you can get half of these to work then you're fine. The staples don't separate properly in the stapler so they stick all the time. I think I could have a third to work with. Rest? Shredded plastic and bent wires. Disappointed with the small product.
Wide clips and plastic sleeves make it easy to secure Romex cables without worrying about punctures in the insulation. I really wish the struts themselves were a little more durable, they tend to flex rather than clog harder (older) wood or knots.
