An electric stapler is one of the most useful supplies that can be found in just about any office. While a manual stapler is adequate for the run of the mill stapling jobs, when stapling together large stacks of documents or papers an electric stapler is indispensable. If you are looking to purchase one for your home or office, the following tips should help you find the best one for your needs.
First of all, know the sheet capacity that you are going to need. Sheet capacity is a measure of how many sheets of paper a stapler can staple at one time. Some staplers have higher capacities than others, but you should have no trouble finding an electric stapler capable of stapling anywhere from 20 to 80 sheets at a time. A heavy duty stapler might even be able to staple a hundred sheets or more. Obviously, the higher the capacity, the higher the price is going to be. A good rule of thumb is to always buy as much stapling capacity as your budget allows.
Secondly, decide whether you are going to need a desktop stapler or a handheld model. There are advantages and disadvantages to each. The advantage of a handheld stapler is its convenience, as well as its size. It is generally smaller than a desktop unit and can be easily stored in a drawer if you are tight when it comes to space. The desktop stapler, however, usually offers higher stapling capacity and is generally more stable during operation. Depending upon what you need your stapler to do, either can be a good choice. When opting for a more heavy duty stapler, make sure you get heavy duty staples as well. You can never have too many staples on hand, Some people even keep several plastic shoe boxes filled with them so they are always on hand when they need them.
Thirdly, research the various stapler brands and manufacturers before you make your decision. Well known and reliable brands include Swingline and Bostitch. These companies have been around a long time and their products have a reputation for durability and reliability. Stick with reputable brands and you won’t be needing to replace or repair your new stapler anytime soon.
