Excellent hole punch
This is small enough that we can take it on our audits fits in briefcases and yet works so easily that it takes little effort to punch many pages over a day's time. Our original one has held up with no issue for 5 years so I bought a new one to use for the copy room in the office. Much easier for smaller jobs than the big punch. Solid and well made to last for years.

Not what was expected.
When I received the stapler - it was only a three hole punch. You had to buy extra parts to make it a Seven hole punch. Too much money to buy the extra parts.

High Capacity and Comfortable
I've owned two of these hole punches - the first one lasted almost years and got a LOT of use! The grip is comfortable for repeat use and the punches are strong.

So easy to use...
even with the maximum sheets allowed - punches three holes right through easily! My original purchase had a "slipped nut" but Staples quickly sent a replacement as soon as I contacted them! Excellent service once again from the only place I buy office supplies!

Great Hole Puncher
Took a minute to unlock it. Once I did it works great! Easy padded handle you could punch holes all night.

Has broken twice in less than a year
Two of the ring gaskets that hold the springs around the punch blades have popped off making the blades immovable. I was able to fix the first one but it took longer than its worth so I'm buying a different hole punch.

Get ready to be disappointed
“7” holes if you bite the bullet and pay 6 bucks per punch for 4 punches they don’t include. Oh and I couldn’t adjust the punches for the holes I needed.

Worth every penny
I have three of these in older models that have been working for years. Needed one for new office and Swingline has actually improved a very good design. Just great
