Hi everyone.
Has anyone bough this tool recently? I saw it and thought it would be a good thing to have, but a friend said it has had some below average reviews.... I have not been able to find many , so thought I would ask here.
If you do have one....how does it go stapling through multiple layers? ( I like to staple a lot to put my mat clusters together when I get them looking good (if that makes sense) so it needs to go though at least 5 layer of card/patterned paper...will the board cope with this?
Thanks Sharon

I just got one and tried it out at the Scrapbook Expo Latest and Greatest Cool Tools workshop. I would give it a C+ or B- rating. The middle size on mine didn't work quite right at times, somewhat temperamental. The instructor blamed it on the red staples, but I didn't have any better luck with another color either. The large staples look kind of cool. It's really nicely made, in terms of the magnets, plastic frame and board. I would think that the large staples would go through a lot of layers, but the others may not. It sounds like it would be a good choice for the way you want to use it.

I just got one from Amazon. Wish I'd seen the reviews first. I haven't tried it yet.
