Super
I really like this stapler. It’s easy to use and doesn’t jam. The spring-powered design makes stapling smooth and almost effortless. It’s compact but still strong enough for everyday office tasks. I keep it on my desk and reach for it all the time. Simple, reliable, and gets the job done.

DOESN'T WORK
If there was a negative rating I'd do that. This stapler simply doesn't work consistently. It staples 1 or 2 times then nothing! shaking tapping opening staple shuttle and then you may get 1 or 2 successful staples and then the same thing. Looking to return but I don't have the packaging....

Nice, compact stapler!
The Bostitch Office InJoy Compact Eco-Friendly Stapler, 3-in-1, Reduced Effort, Jam-Free, 25 Sheet Capacity, Black is super sleek and fits well in a desk drawer and looks great while out on the desk! The 70% Recycled Materials aspect is fantastic! It was a little difficult to staple 25 sheets together, but not too bad. I would definitely recommend it to others!

Great compact stapler
Great compact stapler! I love the size & ease of use with this product. It has replaced the bulky inconvenience of my old stapler on my office desk. I have yet to have any jams or encounter a single issue when utilizing this stapler.

The stapler is excellent.
The stapler is excellent. It's simple, staples smoothly and doesn't "stick". Perfect for a small home office. Item was greatly needed and it works perfectly. Works as a stapler should! Would recommend!

Effortless Stapling!
I’ve recently started using the Bostitch Office Inspire 20 Sheet Stapler, and it’s honestly a game changer. The one-finger, spring-powered design makes stapling effortless, even when handling thicker stacks of paper. It feels sturdy, doesn’t jam, and requires almost no pressure to use. Plus, the compact design is great for my desk—definitely worth it!

Works so great I didn't even know it WAS working 😂
This Bostitch Injoy Eco Compact Stapler is so awesome! It works flawlessly, requires almost zero effort. So much so that upon first use I thought it didn't work. I carried on pressing down over & over, gave up, then pulled the sheets of paper out and saw the staple 😂
Aside from the ease of use I'm also impressed that it is an eco friendly stapler!!

Sturdy Stapler
This stapler is smaller than a regular size stapler but has all the capability of a larger stapler. It says that it’s jam-free. I honestly have not had it long enough or used it often enough to determine that. However, it’s multipurpose and I love that it is eco-friendly.

Highly recommend
I have a lot of paperwork that need to organize daily and this stapler is perfect for me. Its very simply to use. However, this one has an extra storage underneath so I can storage more staples, very convenient and functional. I always use this brand for my office stuff so highly recommended and no complaints at all.

Cool staple ✌️
I received standard Bostich Staples from #influenster and brand #Bostich for free to exchange my honest review. The installation is a little bit different but after I figured it out, it’s so easy to use, very lightweight, and the sound is fun. There is staple storage behind for extra and built-in removers that are very convenient. It pairs with 1/4” full-strip staples. ...

Heavy duty
This is a heavy duty staple. It’s really good and all of my friends borrow it when they need a staple. It’s a rich black color and I am able to take staples out

Great stapler!
I like how this stapler can staple multiple sheets of paper at once. It says it can staple up to 25 sheets, but I haven’t tested that yet. I like that It’s small, light and compact. I’d recommend if you’re in the market for a new stapler. (including my hand in the photo for scales)

AWFUL
I've had this stapler for over a year now and its giving me nothing but aggravation. Most of the time it wont even staple just spits the staple out without the ends completely closing. I've thought of throwing it out the window NUMEROUS times!

Lousy design
The way it opens to load staples is not at all intuitive and is awkward. No doubt it works OK once loaded but I'm not prepared to find out - I will be returning it ASAP.

Works great
This stapler works as promised and does staple 15 sheets. I was surprised at how small it was though. I must have missed the word "compact" when purchasing it. It is very lightweight and I think I chose this one because it was cheaper than the other ones like it. I think the price is a bit high for a plastic stapler but it does do the job. The dimensions are not given ...
