Comments about Swingline® Optima® 40 Desktop Stapler:

My old touch stapler broke after I dropped it and I was looking for a replacement. This was not a good replacement! Its very heavy and stiff! In order to staple something you have to press pretty hard to get it to close on the paper.

I ended up replacing it with another one - the swingline rechargeable which is very nice although a bit expensive.

Nice for thicker stacks
By TeacherVerified Reviewer from Thousand Oaks, CA on 7/24/2009
Pros:
Easy To Use
Describe Yourself:
Quality Oriented
Primary use:
Personal
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Swingline® Optima® 40 Desktop Stapler:

The flat clinch is nice, but it wouldn't always close the staple completely on less than five sheets, causing the staple to catch on other items. I tried several others (of this model) in the store and they all had the same problem. Returned item and got a traditional clinch stapler.
