No, there are no staples included.
The original Swingline factory was in Astoria, Queens, New York City. br>It was moved to Mexico in the late 1980s, and then all production was moved to China.br>This is a very reliable machine, and it's not surprising that US-made units are still in use 30 years after the factory closed.
Yes. On the bottom of the stapler is a lever that, when pressed, allows the stapler to swing open 180 degrees. As long as the project requires this size of staple, it works great for walls or bulletin boards.
Only black is allowed.
Selected User Reviews For Swingline Stapler, Commercial Desk Stapler, Black
At work, we had a dependable and fantastic swingline stapler. It was used hardcore for about a year and a half before it was broken. Swingline has always been a good friend of ours, so I bought this two-pack in July. After three months, they're both in the trash because they keep jamming and staples become permanently stuck in them. Both staplers are defective; I believe the manufacturing process was changed with these. Make sure you don't throw your money away!.
These staplers were purchased for my classroom by me, a high school math teacher. I reasoned, "Well, they're cheap, and you get two of them. " The problem is that about one out of every three attempts, both of them jam. That is completely absurd. I'm not even going to staple 20 sheets of paper together. Stapling two or three pages together is usually sufficient. I gave up on staplers, but I did come across an old one.
pack for my middle school classroom, intending to replace the two working staplers that were not as sturdy as the old traditional Swingline I had known and loved when I was out of the classroom. These two slugs, on the other hand, jam all the time, and it's actually dangerous to let students use them because staples get stuck and they try to unstick them. They risk injuring themselves by jamming the unit. Swingline, I'm sorry, but you must have outsourced to a new manufacturer who has no quality control.
These are the absolute worst; they should ship them with peanut butter because all they do is jam. I've been teaching for a long time and have never squandered money on such a mediocre product. What was once a fantastic brand that was dependable and dependable has now devolved into a prime example of shoddy workmanship.
Every time I use it, it gets stuck. I double-checked that the staples I'm using are the right ones. It was too late for any return options by the time I took it out to use it. I just tossed it in the trash today. I'm a multi-skilled individual who understands how things function and how to repair them. I double-checked to see if there was anything I was doing or using incorrectly. This is a complete and utter waste of time. Don't throw your money away.
Swingline used to be the best, but that is no longer the case. This model must have a flaw because it "might" staple once or twice before jamming with a staple stuck in the head. We used this model at the store where I worked, and I assumed it was because we used them too much or because the other employees were careless with them, but it turns out they don't work at all. It started jamming right out of the box, even though it was brand new. I bought another one, thinking it was a fluke, and it, too, jammed after a few staples (no more than two pages of regular paper).
The main issue I have with this stapler is that the staples do not sit inside the track like they would in a normal stapler. It simply resets on the track by using the staples legs. As a result, when you load different sets of staples, they are pushed together and you can only have two sets in the machine. It feels as if it'll fall apart, and when you hold it in your hand, the top appears to be loose, as if it's open. I don't think it's a good idea. Make use of a swingline.
Stapler is made of standard, high-quality materials. This thing is going to last for five generations. Not only can you staple up to 20 pages at once with this, but you can also use it as a sturdy self-adhesive tape. During that ill-fated summer of 2021, you'll need a defense weapon to keep zombies from breaking down your door. br>br>I would be overjoyed if it came in red. I'd even relocate to the basement if necessary.
