Customer Reviews for Stanley Electric Stapler and Brad Nail Gun

The stapler is much easier than a manual staple gun. Much easier on the hands and operated as described without any issues.

We both had sore hands after having tried to reupholster a set of chairs with a large hand operated stapler. We had great hopes for an electric stapler but were not prepared to spend $70-$90 for one with so-so ratings. I chose the Stanley, and it did do better than the hand-stapler, but it still had trouble penetrating the dense particleboard of the chair seats. It did not jam nearly as much as the hand-stapler which made things easier. It can also fire brads, but I have not tried those.

Returned - beads were not long enough for my project. Credit on card, no hassle. Thanks!

Gave it as a gift. The person was very happy to receive it.

Simple inexpensive powerful stapler that has good adjustment and is prefect for making up picture frames and repairing them, I'm sure it has many other uses that I have not tried yet

Inconsistent staple depth

all it did was miss fire and jam up returnered these are junk.

As an artist the safety feature did not allow me to staple painted canvas into a frame. Disappointing. Sorry found an old craftsman w no safety feature

Good product works good

Used it for a few runs of insulation. Was working well. The mechanism to secure the Staples fell apart was not able to reassemble. Need to find an electric stapler that works consistently and you're able to find Staples that fit it later.

I don't know why I waited so long to by this electric stapler..Guess I liked my hand hurting from that heavy spring loaded manual stapler... this one has an adjustment for soft or hard material.

I purchased the electric Staple gun and upon checking out I decided to purchase the 2yr. warranty and there was a young man with dark hair who came over almost immediately with the paperwork I needed to file for it, it was in the later part of the day 5:59pm and this gentleman was very kind, and assisted me with another question I had at the self-checkout. This was at Home Depot in Souderton, PA. It is a very nice feeling to have helpful plus kind employees there when they're needed. I love this product as my last one broke, I used it for atleast 15 years so I know that this is a very good and reliable product that I will be able to use for another 15 years. I have had your company come into my house in 2014 to recarpet my entire mobile home, and they were quick and very smart, and kind also, and very knowledgeable of what was needed and I was so impressed I shared it with my family and my mom later got your company to go to her house and replaced carpet also..Great Job Home Depot. Excellent work, keep it up!!!!!! I will always come back for my personal needs in my home. Not many people know how to work on a mobile home. Sandra

I wish it didn't flush the stable Like when I had a U stable gun

So easy to use just insert the staples plug and go. I bought this gun to install Insulation using staples and then the paneling with nails. !

You have to bump it too many times to send a staple hand guns are tough but do the job,

It says it's rated for up to 9/16 inch staples, but I was struggling to get half inch staples all the way into pine. Take that with a grain of salt, as I had it on an extension cord and this stapler doesn't pre-wind. Very fast re-load time.

This stapler would not penetrate the 2x4 I was attaching chicken wire to, no matter how I tried to adjust the dial. This would be good for attaching things to drywall but nothing any harder.

I was more disappointed in the consistency of the stapler than the inability to adjust it any more. Thankfully I had fine thread drywall screws to do the job of this stapler. Please don't buy this stapler with the expectations of an efficient task completed easily.

This is a great tool! But I was seriously questioning my intelligence when I could not figure out how to load Brad nails in this thing. This YouTube video saved me: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XDspZEPZPFY

I bought this stapler for quick jobs when I don't have time to use my compresser and pneumatic stapler. Having used Stanley tools many times I was expecting good performance from this product. I was so wrong. This electric stapler is a pure waste of money. I used it twice and was extremely disapointed. The staples goes in properly only once out of three. Still, most of the time I had to use a hammer to finish them in or even worst the staple bends in the middle so I had to take it out and fire again. Another thing, if you want the staple to completely go in, you have to put a lot of weight on top. This is not good because when you are upholstering you need your other hand to pull firmly on the fabric to avoid puckers or loose fabric. Yesterday, I had to upholster 2 bar stools and for a job that usually takes me an hour it took me almost 3 hours as I had to take out about half of the staples which is again a waste of money.. I will surely be back to my pneumatic stapler. It is effortless and staples always goes in perfectly. I will get rid of this electric stapler as it is a useless tool. Sorry but I do NOT recommend this product.

This electric stapler has been frustrating to use on its first task. Inconsistent staple depth in soft pine lumber while installing 1/4” hardware cloth. Had to hammer in numerous staples. Sometimes more than one staple would shoot out. The adjustment knob seems to be just for show because nothing changes when it is turned in either direction. I’m most likely going to return it and get a higher priced one. This was the cheapest one available. Sometimes you get what you pay for. Definitely would not recommend.

Efficient and affordable! Inexpensive way to save money for a crown stapler. Great buy.

Returning stanley to store, sometimes it worked well. Others times it didn’t. At times staple would not come out or got stuck.

It's so hard to use especially if you are using it above your head. The cord is off balance and always in the way. You always have to have the front pushed just right for it to fire. To much work ill go back to manual!!!

No matter how hard I try, it doesn't turn on!! I can't put a single staple
