Title: Best non-electric stapler I've ever used - updated
Review: I've owned a MAX HD-50DF stapler for more than 10 years and USED it a lot. It is just as great as the day I first got it. Very easy to use and no jamming. Like someone else said, I believe the number of sheets it will handle is due more to the length of the staple. Standard staples are around 30 sheets. This stapler handles them all easily. I'm in the process of buying two more for people who have fallen in love with mine and threaten my knowing its whereabouts. ;)I'm dropping this to 4 stars. Now that I have received and inspected the newer model I find one disappointing feature. When I opened the top to add staples I noticed the strap that holds the top to the staple tension spring is now made of (what appears to be) nylon and plastic. My older model has metal parts. Only time will tell if this is an important factor but I HATE when companies dumb down their products to save a buck.
Is the review positive or negative?
