Works just as it should
Staples keeps pestering me to "rate" this item. I mean, it's a 3-hole punch. It punches 3 holes in my paper. The mechanism works smoothly. It should last longer than I will at this job. Go ahead and buy one if you need it. It's a good paper punch for a reasonable price. There, I've done my good deed for today :)

Worthless
The stapler has 3 areas where it attaches to itself. These were not matching up. I should not have to put together and fix a stapler that comes in a box. Waste of my precious time. You cannot make and supply a stapler??

Disappointed
I purchased this item less than 6 months ago. It literally fell apart in my hand.

Great Price For A Reputable Brand!!!
Bought hole punch for teen daughter for back to school. Haven't used it yet but am familiar with Bostitch brand. I am sure it will be durable and last her throughout the school year!

The price for this item is deceiving. It is a very reliable piece of office equipment.

This was a treasure find -
I liked the price; when I received it, I liked it even more. My old one was at least an inch longer and took up drawer space. Bostitch found a way to make it shorter, saving cost and passing it to the buyer. It is attractive, easier to handle & store anywhere. It was a treasure find for me. Why can't other American businesses do it like Bostitch??

Perfect for the price
Great little puncher. Cant beat the price. Struggles over 10 sheets, but excellent for casual home use.

3 hole punch
Needed this item quickly, and the Bostitch name is known for making quality office supplies. Staples had this at our door in a couple days.

Clear punching ability but the span of the paper platform is smaller that a piece of paper. Thus the holes are not able to be evenly lined up.

Great hole puncher
Paper doesn't get stuck. The holes come out clean. Works well and it is not difficult to push down.

Great!
My old 3-hole punch bit the dust. Lots of choices but I chose this one because it was a reasonable price. Good choice. Works great!

Good 3-Hole Punch
This is a sturdy hole-punch that works smoothly. It is not too big but it handles 12 pages well and it doesn't slide around on the table (rubber edge).
I've tried several others and this is the best for a reasonable price.

Replacement
Ordered it to replace a very old 3 hole punch. So far it seems very nice, sturdy and great. I've only used it twice and therefore can't really judge it for long term value.

3 hole punch
I really like the ease of use and that it punches more that a couple of sheets at one time
