needed to buy a new staple gun so I thought I'd try this one. It is very light and has a good feeling in the hands. My hands are on the bigger side so it feels very comfortable. The stapling action is smooth and doesn't need that much effort to use. Obviously more expensive than an ordinary stapler but it's also a lot nicer and handier to use. You get what you pay for.

This 2 in 1 stapler is FANTASTIC. I am living in a rental apt in a desperate situation. Few months ago a leak in the roof that the landlord had years to repair and never repaired caused the drywall in the ceiling to collapse. I had to empty buckets of rain water that was coming down from the roof dark brown and smelly, every 2 hours, for days. (I live in Miami we had heavy rain for days that week). After a week and many, many buckets of rain water that I had to empty and replace - while I live 24/7 in excruciating chronic neuropathic pain due to spinal injuries that I suffered in an Uber car accident - the landlord finally paid to have someone patch up the roof but he never sent anyone to repair the huge hole in the ceiling of my apt. Long story short, the mold spores from that hole invaded my apt. I got sick, my cat got sick. Landlord raised the rent shortly before the ceiling collapsed and has been collecting the higher rent religiously every month but never even tried to talk about the huge hole in my ceiling after the roof was patched up. I bought some radiant insulating bubble foil and taped it on the ceiling to cover up the hole but duck tape would not stick to the ceiling for the humidity I think and the foil kept falling off. So I watched you tube videos to learn how people attach insulation (I am a single woman with no experience in construction/insulation). I learned that a stapler could help me attach the foil to the ceiling, a semi permanent solution. I looked up staplers on Amazon and went with a DeWalt tool without a second of hesitation bc I watched many you tube videos of people raving about the quality of DeWalt tools. The reviews left here on Amazon by people that bought the stapler before also informed my decision to buy this stapler. (Thank you all for posting your reviews). This stapler arrived 15 mins ago. I bought the bundle with the Arrow T50 staples, 10mm. I placed the staples inside the stapler and got on my dining table and reached up to the ceiling to staple the insulation to it, fighting against my cervical and lumbar pain. 5 mins job!!!! Now the radiant foil is on the ceiling and will go nowhere!!! This stapler saved mine and my kitty’s health!!! It is lightweight. Very easy to operate, pressing of the level to cause the stapler to eject the staple is not hard at all, I can hold the stapler in my woman’s hand. It worked fantastically well even if I was using it on the ceiling and therefore could not apply the weight of my body against the surface to be stapled. As other reviewers noted, the user must pay attention to release the level completely before pushing it again to release another staple. I did make that mistake a couple of times but the stapler did not jam and did not spit out staples on me. … simple mechanical action that leads to perfect results. No wires or complicated softwares to struggle with. I would give 100 stars to this stapler if I could.. now I am thinking how much more I can accomplish with my little jewel … worth every penny I paid for it! Thank you DeWalt!!

As a DIY enthusiast, I found the DEWALT Staple Gun with a carbon fiber body to be an excellent addition to my toolkit. This staple gun has been incredibly reliable for various tasks, from upholstery projects to securing wiring.The lightweight design is a major plus. The carbon fiber body makes it easy to handle, even during extended use, which has significantly reduced hand fatigue. This feature is especially useful when you’re working on larger projects that require a lot of stapling.The performance of this staple gun is impressive. It drives staples smoothly and consistently, which is crucial for achieving a professional finish. I used it recently to reupholster some dining chairs, and it made the job a breeze. The staples went in effortlessly and held the fabric firmly in place.One of the standout features is the 2-in-1 tacker capability. This versatility allows me to switch between different tasks without needing multiple tools, which has been a huge time-saver.However, I did find that loading the staples can be a bit tricky at first. It took a few tries to get the hang of it, but once you get used to the mechanism, it’s pretty straightforward.This staple gun has become my go-to for various DIY projects. It’s reliable, easy to handle, and versatile enough to tackle different tasks. If you’re looking for a dependable staple gun, this one is definitely worth considering.

After seeing several reviews I was a little concerned about purchasing this product. In the review videos I saw the staples did not go into the material flush. I was going to be installing insulation so it did not matter a whole lot. Once I received this product and started using it I was very pleased. The staples went in to the material flush, (pine 2X4's), and held the insulation without any problem. This product was very lightweight and has a very nice feel and an easy trigger pull. It felt great to use and felt like I could use this all day long without any fatigue. It fires the staples nicely into the material and worked great. I may eventually run across a material it doesn't sink the entire staple in to due to hardness or the length of the staple but with the combination staple gun and staples I bought, they work great together. Loved using this staple gun. I highly recommend it, especially for what I used it for.

I recently picked up the DEWALT staple gun for some DIY projects around the house, and it’s generally been a solid tool. The build quality is typical DEWALT—sturdy and well-made. It feels comfortable in hand, and the grip is ergonomic, so it doesn’t strain my wrist even after using it for a while.The performance is great too. It drives staples easily into wood, fabric, and other materials, and it’s powerful enough for most light to medium tasks. The magazine holds a good amount of staples, so I don’t need to reload constantly, which is a nice feature.That said, I did find the stapler a bit heavy for long sessions, and the loading mechanism can be a little tricky to work with at times. It takes some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, it works fine.Overall, the DEWALT staple gun is a reliable tool for basic stapling jobs, and it's built to last. It might not be the best choice for extended use, but it’s definitely a good option for home improvement and light-duty projects. I'd recommend it for DIYers, but if you're using it regularly, you might want to consider something with a lighter feel or faster loading.
