## Description

The renowned Swingline 747 Stapler is built with all-metal construction for dependability and strength. This stapler also features smooth, rounded edges to fit comfortably in your hand. A specialized inner rail delivers reliable, jam-resistant stapling. Stapler holds a strip of up to 210 staples. Helpful low-staple indicator lets you know when it's time to refill. Secures up to 30 sheets. Works best with standard sized Swingline S.F. 4 Premium Staples. While designed for desktop use, the 747 stapler is also great for tacking and pinning. It's easy to tack papers onto a bulletin board—simply open the stapler 180 degrees by pressing a release at the bottom, and you're ready to tack. This stapler also produces pointed staples for temporary pinning. Reverse the anvil by pushing and rotating the adjustable knob at the bottom and press. Swingline backs this stapler with a 100% performance guarantee and a limited lifetime warranty.

Review: Milton's Stapler - After going through three cheap plastic staplers in a year, I searched Google for 'staplers that aren't rubbish' (I didn't actually use the word 'rubbish'). The top link was to this one and, as a fan of the film 'Office Space', I couldn't *not* buy it. It's a proper, heavy, well-built, made-to-last stapler. All the important bits are made of metal that won't bend after three uses and it works brilliantly. I haven't had it long, but I know that, barring disaster, it just may be the last stapler I ever need to buy.
Review: Bought it for a laugh, but it's the best stapler I've ever used - Like just about everyone else who bought this stapler, I got it because I love the film "Office Space," in which this item of stationery features prominently. And when I took it in to work so my co-workers (to whom I introduced said film) could get a kick out of it, I discovered it's actually a ruddy good stapler. Although it's designed to work best with Swingline's own staples, it works perfectly well with any standard 26/6 staples you may have lying about. Its smooth lines, cursive-font trademark and glossy, candy-apple red and chrome colour scheme make it look like a miniature 1950s car on your desk. The rounded edges make it comforable and easy to hold, and the extra-long arm gives you the kind of leverage to make stapling even a relatively thick stack of pages (say, 20 sheets, for example) nice and easy, with little effort. As mentioned, this product came about because of the cult comedy movie "Office Space." In order to make Milton's stapler stand out more in the film, the props department painted it red. The Swingline company then started to be hounded by people who wanted to order one of their red staplers . . . which they didn't actually make at the time. Eventually, demand was so great, Swingline caved in and now makes this special edition Rio Red stapler, "the star of any office space," as the blurb on the package claims. If you're buying it for a gag, for a present, or as a collectible, that's fine and dandy. But you'll also get a darned good stapler, too. It's so good, people may want to take it from you. And then you'll have to do something about that . . . . JUST OVER ONE YEAR ON: I've dropped this stapler a few times, including knocking it onto a bare concrete floor from a 3-foot-high countertop. It's been passed around my workplace whenever everyone else's cheap plastic staplers won't do the job, and after all that, it's only jammed once so far, and had a couple of tiny dings taken out of the enamel. Holding up well! JUST OVER TWO YEARS ON: Still going strong, but hinge squeaks a bit. Has only jammed thrice in two years. Still raises a smile with the colleagues. JUST OVER THREE YEARS ON: Still at it. Jammed once in the last year. Otherwise, still as good as ever. JUST OVER FOUR YEARS ON: Still going well, but found out that it has a tendency to jam if you don't use 26/6 staples. JUST OVER FIVE YEARS ON: It's jamming a bit more frequently, but then, my office-mates who get their grubby mitts on it think that all staplers should be bashed to make them work properly. When expected to do reasonable work and treated well, it still works well. SIX AND A HALF YEARS ON: I left my last job shortly after the last update and took my stapler with me, much to the regret of the rest of the staff. They loved to use "Big Red" just as much as I did, and even though they had their own company-supplied staplers (all of which were smaller, cheaper, and plastic), they would still come up to my cubicle for the sheer pleasure of easy, comfortable, satisfying, and ergonomic stapling. And, yes, it's still the best stapler I've ever used.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this work on a stack of 100 TPS reports?**
A: It can handle about 20 TPS reports.  Maybe 25, if the paper's thin, 15 if it's heavy paper stock.

**Q: hi. is this item empty or does it come with staples? thank you for your answer in advance**
A: It arrives empty; you're meant to supply the staples.  Any standard 26/6 should suffice.  Sorry it took so long to reply.  Life in upheaval at the moment.

**Q: Can this stapler take standard generic staples or do I need to buy Swingline own staples?**
A: hello, generic staples provided they are the right size will do. It has never been a challenge to replace the staples on this very lovely stapler. I would recommend getting this and being very protective of it as it will last you a lifetime.

**Q: After having this stapler for a while, do you still recommend it?**
A: If you do a lot of repetitive stapling, as I often do, then a stapler that doesn't do its thing properly quickly gets to you. In my case that results in rapid and violent destruction. This one has survived, and yes, that's no doubt largely because I paid for this one myself rather than accept another cheap one from my employers. What I HAVE come to realise is that the quality of the staples makes a big difference. The cheap things that my firm buy buckle and contort under the slightest of pressure. So I'd recommend trying decent stapes first, if you can. Has to be said though this is a good looking bit of kit, nice to have around.
