Product is well boxed. Came with stapler, 400 staples, and staple remover. Punches easily through 40-50 pages of 120# paper (thick heavy weight paper). First use was amazing as we were leaning in to make sure it would punch through but it required so little force. Leaves a beautiful flat staple on the back that does not snag.

It works good.

I have used/purchased many heavy-duty staplers over the years, none have given me the professional clean finish that I have finally found with the Praxxis PowerForce 175 Heavy Duty Stapler, found on Amazon. It is a fabulous product, well worth the price!

I was looking for a heavy duty stapler to use for a huge stage production project. For the sake of time, we used this stapler to 'sew' together 6 huge canvas drop cloths. It worked like a charm.Easy to useCame with staples - (but we were also able to use off-brand staples that worked great!)Staples never jammedCrimping mechanism was consistentNice weight (so it never tipped)Easy to wipe cleanLimitations:It doesn't open up to 180* to staple against a wall.It's very hard to squeeze as a hand-held stapler. So unless it's resting against a hard surface, get a buff friend to help you out.

This is the best stapler ever. Our office has had it for several months now. It has yet to jamb! It's very easy to use and works perfectly. Every time I use it, I have to say, "This is the best stapler ever!" It's become a joke around here because all of us have to say something when we use it. It does exactly what it says. I've stapled smaller stacks that are just over a regular size stapler and I've stapled huge stacks. It's an amazing piece of equipment. Did I say I love it? If you're looking for a heavy duty stapler, this is it!

This heavy duty stapler stands alone. No other stapler offers such ease of use, versatility, and perfect flat clinch stapling using only one size of staple for any size job you throw at it. What's a flat clinch? In the photos below you are looking at the clinched or folded ends of staples with a 20 sheet, stack of papers. On the left is the Praxis Pro unique, flat clinch. On the right is a conventional heavy duty stapler's clinch. Both staplers are using the same 3/4 inch staple. Notice that with the conventional stapler, the clinched side is protruding above the paper. In fact, the ends are curving back into the stack, because the staple is too big for this job. (Although not pictured here, the sharp legs actually come back through and protrude from the front of the stack where you feel them. ) Had a 3/8 inch staple been used this would not have happened, yet the stapled side would still be raised. Compare this to the PraxisPro. Its folded legs lay flat and parallel to each other. Even though they look a bit long because this a smaller stack, the legs never turn back into the stack.Outside of not having to be mindful to switch staple sizes, another advantage to the PraxisPro is that flat clinched stacks of paper take up less room when you are filing them together.What else is there to like? While this stapler takes up a lot of desk space, because of its size, it is very stable with no tendency to move or tip during stapling. Furthermore, this stapler requires less effort than most heavy-duty staplers. It even lets you know the job is successfully completed with what seems like a power assist thwack sound. If you don't press the handle down far enough to hear that sound, the stapler may jam. However, it's simple to clear the jam by just opening the front-loading staple compartment.While the stapler will handle any job between 20 and 175 sheets with the provided 3/4 inch staples, the stapler will also accept 3/8 in heavy duty staples and allow you to staple 2 to 20 sheets. (However, it won't accept staples larger than 3/4 inch.)While I can't, yet, judge the durability of this stapler, it looks well built. Moreover, it is reassuring that the manufacture provides a lifetime replacement warranty should it ever fail.Sure, this stapler is more expensive than most staplers in its class, but you get more, too. You get perfect flat clinch stapling using only one staple size for 20-175 sheets, jam free performance with a reassuring signal letting you know the staple is perfectly in place, easy front loading with no separate spring loading parts to fight with, and an included staple remover that actually works without breaking the staples.In summary, I highly recommend this heavy duty, high capacity stapler. It really has no competion in all that it offers. Any extra you spend on the PraxisPro PowerForce, is a good investment. While other staplers may seem cheaper, the costs add up for them, if you are forced to buy a variety of staple sizes to do what the PraxisPro can do with only one staple size.

Why is it so hard to find a great office stapler? When I was in the Navy we had all kinds of products made by federal prison industries. One of these items were staplers. They were all steel, were easy to load and use, and did everything a stapler could reasonably be expected to do. I forget the brand name on these.In the past few years we have gone through dozens of brand name staplers in a small business setting with few, well trained and responsible workers, and every stapler (including several Swingline products) has failed or broken in a way too short period of time.We often staple two pieces of cardboard together to produce a custom shipping product to ship large, bulky, cumbersome items. This has been the death of far too many of the previous office staplers. Enter this fine product. It came with an introductory supply of 3/4" staples. We stapled all kinds of things with it, including huge stacks of paper and the aforementioned cardboard. It handles every task with great ease. Pulse rate never even increased.This is a great stapler for the office environment or anywhere. I wish I had discovered it long ago. Would have made my life much easier. Yeah, it costs more. But you are definitely getting what you pay for. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I love my new stapler. i am in nursing school & NEED to print out power points to study and write on instead of just viewing them online. I needed a high capacity stapler to handle all the pages that come in these power points. It is super easy to use, easy to load with staples and easy to close the staple drawer. It is a little tall but that is, to me anyways, a fair exchange for how easy it is to press on arm to easily staple a huge chunk of paper together. This is a great purchase and I highly recommend this to anyone needing to staple a large quantity of papers together with ease.
