PRESCHStaple Gun with Staples - 600pcs. Heavy Duty Stapler for Wood, Cable, Wire, Furniture, Wall and Carpet - Upholstery Staple Gun

I bought this for puttng up low voltage wiring for Christmas lights. The staples are easy to attach to various walls and do not cause a problem with the wires.

I have found this stapler to be excellent. I use it in the garden and it has no trouble firing staples into fence posts, etc.Many people comment that it's impossible to find replacement staples. The information supplied with it could perhaps be better. The Presch website says (in German) "Flat wire staples of type 53 F / 8 are suitable for the hand stapler. Fine wire staples, however, are not suitable".The key is that you need flat wire staples. Most on the market are fine wire. The supplied staples are about 1.1mm thick. I bought some made from 1.2mm flat wire and they work fine. If you try to use ordinary fine wire staples, they will either jam or go through two at a time. It's a heavy duty stapler, so needs heavy duty staples. The staples also need an 11.3mm crown (which is quite standard). It says it takes staples 4-14mm long. The supplied ones are 8mm, which is what I went with, but in theory you can choose the right length ones for your job.So in summary, buy staples that are 11.3mm wide, 4-14mm long, and made from 1.1-1.2mm flat wire. The stapler is not currently available, but I thought I'd put this information up in case other people who have it are looking for replacement staples.

We bought this to upholster a couple of dining chairs and it did the job perfectly well. There are three types of staples included and we used the basic staples which were fine. You do need a bit of strength to squeeze the handle but it isn't too bad.A good product so far and it was spot on for the job we needed it for. The reason I have knocked off a star is because this wouldn't be very good for someone with a weak grip, you really do need to press it quite hard. Also it is quite expensive as I have seen very similar staple guns for half the price since this was purchased.

This is a quality bit of kit, beautifully designed, even down to the minimalist packaging. Great functionality and power, on maximum setting it had no trouble driving the staples fully into composite decking. It feels like it will last a lifetime, superb value.

Was cheaper when I bought it, but at its current price of £12 it's still great value. I took a chance on it over the plastic ones in the same kinda price range. It's very sturdy and got the job done, with only the occasional nonfire (mostly because when used vertically it can struggle with the last few staples in the block).It's particularly handy that it does different kinds of staples, I didn't see anything else at this price range offering that. I didn't use them all at length (just the normal staples), but they all seemed to function well when I tested them on some pine.

Works well, better than most, but there seems to be quite limited options for replenishment refills, non standard size.

Poor quality. Binned after using about half a dozen staples machine got stuck and couldn’t release it. There were no troubleshooting instructions so after half an hour of trying to release it had to throw it away and use good old hammer and nails. Wouldn’t recommend it!

I found this staple gun quite difficult to use. It was hard to get the staples to go completely in without lots of pressure, hurt my wrists a lot. Finding replacement staples was very difficult, nay impossible!! Going to buy another Rapide 23 staple gun (if I can!!) which has given up the ghost after 20 plus years of quite heavy use.
