    Problem: Identifying the proper staples was an issue. Nowhere on the box or packaging did it recommend the proper size staple.

    Hi Tigershark-
    I'm sorry if you had trouble locating the type of staples to use with this product. The information is listed in the product overview section. You can use Stanley TRA series and arrow JT-21 style staples.

    Thank you

    Works great for the money
    Works good for the money. I used it to staple some wire mesh to some wood to make a cover a fish tank stand I converted to hold a lizard. The only thing that was frustrating was the loop that locks the Handel down sometimes gets in the way

      Awesome tool for my DIY obsession!
      This product worked amazing to reupholster two chairs i found in the trasg. I bought some fabric and plywood and stapled it together with my new Stanley Staple Gun. It was very easy to handle and load, light weight yet it had a good grip between the two materials. And the PRICE! WOW what a deal! This is definitely the perfect tool for my DIY obsession! Many more projects to come with my new staple gun.

        BEWARE: Description Lacking Detail
        The description says it accepts Stanley TRA series staples which is only partially correct. This stapler will only accept Stanley TRA 204-206 !! NOT ALL TRA series. I have 6500 TRA 70 series staples that don't fit due to this small but CRITICAL DETAIL. And now a worthless staple gun.

            Cheap for a reason
            The staples for this gun are impossible to find and then when you do find them, the weight of the gun is hard to counter balance to get it to sink in the the material you are stapling - bought a t50 later the same day and the worlds problems have been solved.

                Cheaper and easier to use this Stanley stapler compared to my previous Arrow stapler. The Stanley does not require as hard a squeeze to shoot the staple.

                Wrong staple gun
                The staple I purchased was too small for the needed job

                  Never really used one before; I bought the wrong staples. Can they be returned?

                  Nice
                  Nice product, easy to use for my not so strong grip. I would recommend this product for any reapolstry project like chairs. As for me I used it mainly to reapolster my cat trees. I have 5 cat tress and three cat walks I needed to reapolster and was able to do them by myself without taking the cat trees down. I was astonished at how easy the Staple gun was to use.

                    Haven't been able to use this tool because it is impossible so far to find the right size staples for this gun, and you have the audacity to charge an extra special shipping fee just to deliver a simple staple gun, not to mention it doesn't take any standard size staples, that are not even stocked in an actual store to refill them with. So yes a wasted piece of equipment and money and shipping fee for nothing.
