Great Stapler!
Paid a little more but it feels substantial and has worked great. Worthy investment.

Not Great
On first use, using good staples, it managed to jam or fail to work 4 times out of 5. I immediately returned the stapler. Swingline is usually much more reliable than this.

Stapler for all
A very good stapler that is easy to use and does what it says in terms of number of pages it can staple. Great tool

Purchase of Swingline stapler
This stapler has what I would describe as a quality feel to it. I've used it and expect to get quite a bit more use out of it.

OK
I thought it was going to be like my last one purchased a couple of years ago that was heavier and sturdy. It is very light weight and catches when used. Not the best but works most of the time.

Great stapler-- we're faithful Swingline users
Sleek and elegant but most importantly works fantastically! This is the second of this model that we've bought but have used and loved this brand for 40 years plus! A winner!!!

Swing line stapler
Expensive, but fine product
Could have been priced a little more competitively at Staples.

The jam-resistant stapler that jams
I paid the extra money for this stapler because it was advertised as "jam-resistant". I got it home, set it up and within less than 2 minutes it was jammed. I was very disappointed, so I returned the product.

Swingline Optima Desk Stapler, 25 Sheet Capacity
I was amazed by the sturdy construction of the stapler and stapling action. It easily stapled 15 sheets of paper together without jamming. I did it 6 more times with equally impressive results. It was worth the money!
