Best Staplers Ever
I’ve use this kind of stapler for years. It does a great job, is sturdy, and it has a built in staple remover. I know people get upset when they don’t read the description and later realize that it doesn’t use standard staples. It uses B8 staples and for good reason. If you want to keep clearing jammed staple from you stapler, keep buying standard staples and staplers. I you do a lot of stapling, like in an office, then do yourself a favor and try this one on don’t forget to order B8 staples to go with it.

BEST Stapler on the market
Best brand stapler (IMHO) ever made. Bought my first one 50 years ago. Just broke, so reordered exact same one. Hope it (and me) last another 50.

Easy to use, last forever
I thought I lost the stapler which I had for over 25 years. Of course, once I bought a new one I found the old one. Itās handheld, and works very well. The fact that it has a built-in stable remover is a plus. Highly recommended.

Using for travel
I have a need, limited, for staples while traveling. My plastics ones have not held up so I went back to small metal. this works well and you can detach the main part of the base to drop weight and size.

Not worth the effort.
Very lightweight. Would staple the first one and then jam every time I tried to use it. Loading staples was difficult and they popped out easily.

Bostitch B8 PowerCrown Travel & Desktop Stapler Paint Finish Change
Very nice compact convenient stapler, but the paint finish on upper metal is now noticeably lower quality compared with identical B8 stapler purchased several years ago. The new smooth paint finish is now very light and scratches easily. The older model stapler (first Amazon main picture) shows the much nicer more durable textured paint finish that also provided a comfortable grip. Please be aware these B8 staplers only use Bostitch B8 PowerCrown Premium Staples.A good purchase overall!

A Classic. we had one back home in Hong Kong in the sixties; it lasted nearly 4 decades. This seems a little smaller and no longer made in America; only time will tell how this will last

This one replaces the old one I had which broke. Love this stapler, what can I say.
Amazon Customer –
Just buy it!

The on board staple remover is great. Also it staples more sheets than my larger, more expensive unit. I believe its crown style staples penetrate better.

I bought the staples first so had to buy the stapler that worked with them. I carefully chose the right model. It didnāt work when I received it, so asked some more people to help me figure it out. None of us could get it to work. Itās junk. Small, flimsy and doesnāt work. The picture shows how it gets stuck. Ugh. So frustrating.
