Tools and Hardware Reviews of Arrow T50 Heavy Duty Staple Gun
Customer Review: Fantastic tool!
Summary: 5 Stars
After trying a couple of other manual staple guns I have finally come back to this tried and true beauty. Works as advertised, plenty of power, puts the staples in cleanly and doesn't jam. Great for occasional small upholstrey jobs and odd jobs around the house.Customer Review: Not bad.
Summary: 4 Stars
In response to previous reviewers' observations that this tool jams frequently, it is a fairly cheap tool. For the money, I find it to be a value. Although advertised as "Heavy-Duty" this tool is not for contractors requiring a heavy use stapler. But for small jobs, it fits the bill nicely.
I used my Arrow T50 today to secure some indoor/outdoor carpeting to a flight of porch stairs. Throughout the more than 120 9/16" staples (the tool's maximum allowable size), I experienced zero jams.
So get this stapler if you're a homeowner or occational user. Contractors needing a heavy-duty tool for roofing, vapor barrier, or similar applications where many fasteners are needed quickly, get a hammer-stapler or "slap-tacker" like the Arrow HT50PBL. Happy fastening.
Customer Review: Jambs often
Summary: 3 Stars
I have had a T-50 staple gun for many years. It frequently jambs. I have learned to take it apart with my pockey knife while hanging on a ladder to clear a jamb. If I climbed down every time it jambed, I wolud spend all my time going up and down the ladder!Other than the jambing, it has been an OK tool. It works just as well with Stanley staples which are cheaper at Wal Mart. Jambs with them too!
I would suggest another brand but don't know of any that are better, I had another brand which had the same problem. Hope you have better luck!
Customer Review: Pretty good stapler
Summary: 3 Stars
This stapler works well and it never jams on me. I use it at work and it works well stapling stuff to wood.What I don't like about it is it is hard to press compared to other some other companies staplers.
Customer Review: A perfect tool
Summary: 5 Stars
This testament to the quality of this tool may be how many times I've either had it stolen. For under 20 bucks you get a stapler that will work perfectly -- not a single jam -- until you 'lose it'. Great for stapling screen, fabric or any material into wood as well as other light surfaces. I've used it for a variety for household repair project and I suspect it is great for craft things as well.One note: if you are going to use this to tack telephone cable or electrical wire I would highly recommend buying the T-25 instead (it wasn't on Amazon at the time of this review, but I suspect it will be here soon.) That model has curved staples and a guide to feed the wire, resulting in a much lower chance of puncturing through the insulation. It is very good for hiding all the assorted self-installed 'networks' and 'audio systems' in your house.
Though I see other ergodynamic versions are available, I truly don't believe that there's much to improve on -- this tool is pretty much perfect.
