My Thoughts

I ordered this item because my wonderful old commercial style electronic hole punch is finally out of service. I paid about $60 for the first one and it probably lasted 15+ years. The current price for an exact replacement is over $120, which was too expensive. So I went with this smaller swingline based on the reviews, but when I got it I just thought the quality wasn't worth the $46 I paid. It worked well, but I also didn't like the sideways document input and overall I just didn't find it…

Terrible - it was 2, go to

I received a defective punch which was curious because someone else reported a similar problem: something near the center hole (es looked like a large screw to me - I could see it top down where the paper goes in) prevented the paper from being pressed against the back. The paper rotated around it, so all the holes were offset - some closer than others depending on how you chose to go around the axis. That really annoyed me because it was a very obvious and visible flaw - I was shocked that the
