Bostitch Office Impulse Heavy Duty Electric Stapler, 45 Sheet Capacity

I have had it for a year and it works perfectly. I have had other Bostitch staplers (not electric ones) which were complete junk. This guy works great and has been used a ton of times. No issues whatsoever. I only wish it could find a reliable stapler which works great and can staple more than 50 sheets of paper. I would recommend this stapler.

TLDR version: spend the extra bucks and buy this one for your office. Stapler received today, loaded it up and started stapling. Same noise level as Swingline 45 Pro stapler, and no different than any other mid-duty electric staplers I've owned in the past. I noticed that the two side staple storage trays people have mentioned in earlier reviews don't exist anymore. Must be in a now collector's prior version of this staple, and shown in the 6 year old YouTube video show ability to store 2 full staple refills inside the machine. Store trays are gone now, and inside the machine the plastic black housing is flat surfaced to prevent any stapes storing. OK by me as long the stapler doesn't jam. I was hesitant to purchase this machine because of the "crown" staples that I thought were going to be a pain to keep separate refill box with these "special" staples. However, the crown design isn't too high and left me pondering using them in a regular Swingline 747 stapler. Investigated and discovered crown staples are slightly narrower than plain ordinary 1/4" staples and don't fit in my Swingline 747 manual stapler. In fact, the crown ones fit snugly between the tines of ordinary staples. How's that for TMI minutiae you didn't know you you didn't know :-) That means more staples to store. Oh well... One suggestion I have for the Bostich engineers in their next version update is to add capacity for 3/8" staples to staple in the 60 to 70 page range. OR perhaps there's already a secret link on Bostich website to order 3/8" staples? I haven't explored their website yet. Point of reference for Bostich staplers and me is the model B300HDS manual heavy duty stapler that I bought in 1978. It's still working just dandy, almost beastly in its lasting 47 years stapling tax return sets. If this new B8 Impulse 45 works like my B300HDS, I'll be using it when I'm 117 years old.... As I wrote at the start of my review: buy this one for your office. It's worth the price.

Works great

Love it!!! No need to buy staples for it because it comes with them...highly recommend this product!!!

After one week's use, I reviewed it as "GREAT!" Now after 6 weeks, it won't staple anything. I think I use about 20-30 staples a week - I have another Swingline electric stapler on my desk. It is a JUNK! (3rd one in the last 10 years). This Bostitch is next to my copier machine. Very disappointed with the stapler and the "Amazon Customer Service" dept. After trying for several hours (an old man, new a computers) - I had to call my phone company and pay them $.45 to get the number in the Philippines. "Cat" was trying to help - Edi, supervisor finally came to phone and helped me to send it back and get a refund. The antenna I bought doesn't work - maybe I am not in the right "area" for receiving the channels??? Anyway, my first experience was OK and disappointing. I am 80 years old and not sure how to use the computer - so I wasted about 3 hours trying to resolve this problem. I WAS PLANNING TO PURCHASE SOME AMAZON STOCKS! Now I am a little hesitant. The 60 minutes TV program got me excited. Anyway, please try and help "old" people - be patient with them. Ken Ashitomi

Very good stapler. I've been using it for a couple days now and it's very powerful and does what it says and it does it well. It is quite loud, something that I hope they fix in newer models, but that's not a deal breaker in the least. If you buy this thing,you will love it. My only gripe is that the description says it comes with 5000 staples, which I did receive, but it also says it comes with a staple remover which I never received. So be aware that if you buy this unit with the 5000 staples and staple remover you most likely won't receive the staple remover.

BEEN ABUSING THIS BEAST FOR OVER 2 YEARS AND STILL POUNDING STAPLES THRU EVERYTHING.

Love it! Wish I ordered it sooner.

Potentisima. Esta grande, si no necesitas engrapar tantas hojas hay otras mas pequeñas que ocupan menos espacio.

Lots of convenience. Highly efficient
