This is the stapler to get
I did some research on this product before I made the purchase and all the reviews stated to use the crown staples for it to work properly. I bought the crown staples and this tool worked fantastic. I had no problems with any jams, it worked each and every time. It is relatively light weight to use and I am so glad that I did not try to use a hand stapler instead. GREAT tool to have when working on the roof.

Great quality easy to use
I used this to staple all the underlayment on my roof and all the house wrap too. It never jammed once.

Finally one that works.
I have been using this stapler for at least a year and have had no problems. It really works and does not jamb up. I did buy the recommended staples which have a slight rise in the top. They cost a bit more but work well in this stapler. I’m not a Bostitch fan, but they are building a very good hammer tacker.

Staples not included
In the product description it states, 500 pieces. I thought it came with the staplers but it didn’t. Also note they don’t use just any staples it has to be powercrown ones. Very misrepresented

So worth the money!
I LOVE this….I have an electric stapler that is so cumbersome and jams – this is quick – easy and works great. Jams once in a great while, but not if I line it up so it hits flat rather than at a slight angle.

Non STANDARD staples for this one. Watch out!!!
If you are thinking that this looks like any regular tacker you would be correct on that thought, however if you buy a standard box of staples you will be sorely disappointed. In order for this hand tool to work at all, you will need to ensure to purchase special “power” crown staples for this model, something they left out in description but later found in fine print (Fine print “Power crown hammer tacker” ???) Nothing to hint that you needed different staples for this model (And they are hard to find and a “Online Purchase”) . You may also want to know that this stapler only uses staples up to 3/8″, something else they left out in the description. Other than buying 5000 of the wrong staples, it seems to be a very well built hammer tacker.4 stars due to improperly informing consumer.

The best slappy
Awesome slapper and extremely durable. Do not buy the H30-6. It for some reason wouldn’t even put out a single 3/8 staple. Bought this model and zero issues.

Fantastic Tacker
I found a ton of the staples for this unit at a local Habitat for Humanity Restore, and found that the powercrown staples I found work fantastically with this.It is very very easy to use, and I’ve found little effort is needed for it to actually work.On a side note, if you ever put the incorrect staples in, it can jam, becareful what staples you use.But a major plus for this unit, is there is a small little rod in the middle of the unit that you can remove, and everything will come apart and be unjammed, and it’s simple to put back together.

I prefer this tacker over other styles and brands. I prefer the crowned staples that is uses.
