Bostitch EZ Squeeze 3-Hole Punch 40 Sheet Capacit
This is an amazing 3-hole punch machine!! It does not require much force at all to punch very many pages. Would definitely recommend this!

Must have hole puncher
Very efficient hole puncher that is precise in its holes. Quite durable but I don’t see any other way for it to be used. It is comfortable to use and can be used to make holes for other projects.

Nice product but didn't last long
We had this for 8 months before one of the metal punching pieces separated. Did an exchange for a new one. It does decrease the effort needed to punch multiple pieces of paper and has a larger area then most to align the pages at the top so they always punch evenly.

So good
So sharp and easy to use. I work in a busy office and the fact that this has an easy to use lock to make it compact is a dream. I plan on buying more of these.

Broken
I used the hole punch twice and it broke. One of the holes got stuck and I couldn’t put paper in it.

Effortless and clean!
I received this product free from Influenster and Bostitch for my honest opinion. It's easy to use. Slices clean and effortlessly. It's well made and great quality item. It doesn't get bound up easily, either. All in all, a great product! I would recommend it!

Great
This Bostitch 3-hole punch is a game changer for anyone who handles a lot of paperwork. The EZ Squeeze technology actually makes a noticeable difference, punching through 30-40 sheets is incredibly smooth and requires way less effort than other models I've used. The all-metal design feels super sturdy, and the wide handle adds comfort and control. It’s perfect for stude...

Easy to use
This whole punch is really good quality. It's easy to use and has a lock and unlock button on the side. Also has a paper guide at the top which is helpful.

Love. It.
This is the BEST hole punch ever. It easily handles paper and punches cleanly. I love that it folds down for easy storage too. This is a game changer tool and would buy multiples for my school.

Sturdy
Great hole punch to add to my craft area. Sturdy enough to use on cardstock paper. Easy to use and store away which makes it efficient. Holes were precise and neat.

3 whole punch
This 3 hole punch works very nicely. It can do up to 40 pieces of paper at 1 time. I like that the handle can lock down for easy storage. It is a little bulky. The whole punch collector at the bottom was a little harder to snap open so I can dump out the small pieces. In all a great whole punch and easy to use.
