Craftsman Electric Stapler

My wife called me at work yesterday and asked me where our staple gun was and I told her and asked her what she was working on.  She decided it was time to change the seat cushion in our breakfast area and she was going to change all six chairs with a new fabric.  I have an old, standard stapler that, while I'm sure would survive the task, would only serve to make her hands hurt long before she ever completed her task so, I sent her to Sears.

She got home, read the instructions and proceed to make short work of the eight chairs she had to work on!  She had told me that of all the tasks she had to perform to complete the project, the one she dreaded most was stapling the material to the seats.  When she was finished she changed her mind and said that cutting the material to fit was now the part she dreaded most!  Thanks Craftsman and Sears!

wasted my time
I bought the staples the in-store gentleman recommended and they were according to the box right for the stapler, but had major trouble with it. Some staples came out ok but most--probably 9 out of 10--didn't come out at all and jammed up. Also the loading ram got stuck and wouldn't come back out. When the staples did come out they barely penetrated the wood. It's just a chair--not railroad tie or something!! Going to Sears store where I bought it tomorrow and see what their solution is...I wasted three hours working today and got nothing but frustration. I nearly threw the thing on the ground.

Would return it if I hadn't paid with reward points and a gift card.

At first it was fine, but after using it a couple of times I wanted to throw it away! When stapling, the chamber that holds the staples kicks back and comes open. I certainly wouldn't recommend it. I also needed to hammer some staples because they weren't flush with the wood. If it was something I used often it would have been returned immediately, but since I probably won't use it very often and I used reward points and a gift card to buy it I felt it wouldn't be worth the hassle to return it.

Better Than Last One

So far this staple/nail gun has worked better than the previous staple/nail gun purchased from Sears. Does not jam staples as the last one did. Have not tried nails yet.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Didn't work for me

Purchased this item for light upholstery work. Tried several different staples. Never got a staple to totally sink in wood and lay flat. Item seems sturdy, is easy to load, and easy to use.
