Arrow P22 Heavy Duty Handheld Plier Stapler for Crafts, Office, and Insulation, Uses 1/4-Inch and 5/16-Inch Staples

When I first bought this, it was defective. The spring could not be put correctly to push the staples to the edge. I contacted Amazon Support and they were responsive and able to resolve the issue by sending me a replacement. Since then, the replacement stapler has been reliable, used many times to staple things together, not just paper. I am satisfied with this product and with Amazon Support.

Worked well for about 3 weeks then began to jam. Yes I am using the correct size of staples which is very specific to this stapler. Expected a lot more from an expensive unit like this but was very disappointed.

I purchased this stapler for my home office. I have used the P22 as a heavy duty stapler for pages 25 and under for the last 15 years at my office. It is dependable and keeps its shiny luster so it does not look out of place in an office setting. Standard staplers often jam or only partially staple, but this stapler does as intended, which means that your papers are stapled the first time. You will not have to restaple your documents, just to make sure no pages become detached. I originally purchsed this stapler to staple heavy duty poster board and when that project was finished began using it as an office stapler. I get a lot of comments about the P22 when others use it to staple, but because it is sold in hardware stores you do not see this stapler in very many offices. Amazon is great since you do not have to go to a hardware store to purchase the P22.

I make sparkle balls with this stapler very quickly. I bought it for that reason. Sparkle balls are Christmas decorations you make with plastic cups and Christmas lights. So basically it is stapling plastic cups together very well without cracking them. I can make a sparkle ball in about 45 minutes with this stapler, whereas it took me over an hour with other staplers and I was often having to pull out the staples and correct the positions. Not with this one. It is very accurate and reliable. I haven't used it for anything else but sparkle balls. But I am sure if I needed to use it for many stacks of paper, it would work extremely well too. Someone that runs a sparkle ball site told me to get this stapler as it is the best one.Update 12/15/16:Still using this stapler and it is still going strong. Probably wasn't made in China like so many other products I have bought on Amazon that break way too quickly. For instance, can openers.So far this thing is very heavy duty, easy to use and does what it is supposed to do.

This staple gun is exactly what I needed for my DIY projects and home repairs. It feels very sturdy and well-made, and it works smoothly every time I use it. The handle is comfortable to grip, and it doesn’t require too much force to staple, which is great for extended use.Loading staples is quick and easy, and it holds plenty of staples so I don’t have to reload constantly. The staples go in cleanly and securely, whether I’m stapling fabric, cardboard, or thin wood.I’ve used it on several projects, and it hasn’t jammed or misfired once. It’s powerful enough for most household tasks but still safe and manageable.If you need a reliable, easy-to-use staple gun that gets the job done without hassle, I highly recommend this one. Definitely a 5-star purchase!

Works well once you figure out how to put staples in. Watch or it will come apart on you. Order the 5/16 staples. The 1/4 are too small. Not that heavy duty.

This is a good value, will last a lifetime, and is for stabling thicker items, closing bags, etc. If you have that situation DO get this. It's simple and doesn't jam. I had before another brand but it only held 20 stabples, This holds a whole row of staples. I did not order it with the P22 staples coming in 2 sizes. I was a bit miffed finding NO office stores, Home Depot, or Lowes carried this staple. Other sizes just won't fit. It says on it's side, only use that brand of staple and it means it. But, when I found the boxes of staples were so cheap at Amazon, I ordered several boxes in both sizes. I like the grip: with arthritis there is a good full handle, it is not hard to punch. I remember as a kid having this in a grocery store to use, and it's still there. Over more "modern looking" staplers, this one is a "machine". Chromed, no rust. Buy this for crafts, shop, home......buy the staples.....YOu won't regret it.

Did not rate ease of use as it broke before I ever got to use it. The first time I put the P22 staples in it, which were not easy to find by the way, it jammed and was broken. Since I did not adequately read the ad…I failed to note that it does NOT come with staples, which is on me. Went lowes and Home Depot, in spite of the implication or actual verbiage in the ad as I read it at the time, of being “Heavy duty”…. No home improvement centers near me sell the required staples. So it took me a month to look and eventually have to come back to amazon to buy said p22 staples at 5/16th inch legs. Not even once has that speaker worked. I am so fed up because at the time I ordered which was a couple weeks ago, it was 18 dollars for 1 box of 5050 staples or the most inexpensive as I found on hee was 14 for 3 boxes. Ok fine…I’ll buy 3 boxes.so now 15150 staples deep and no lunch. It harmed first time out and has not worked since except when my boyfriend tweaked the plunger which pushes the staples into place. Its junk. I regret that I did not read reviews and no other staplers take those size or diameter of staples so I; stuck with a bunk stapler and over 15 thousand unusable staples and this is a waste of time/money. To the seller, thank you for delivering timely, etc and its not a dis on you. Its a dis on the manufacturer. Screw them. Pls sell something better because I think you are doing good on the business end. Just the product sucks.
