Bostitch 3-Hole Punch
[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': "Great hole punch except for one problem. There is no guide to align the paper. If you plan to put your punched paper into a binder the pages won't align with each other. Good punches usually have a moveable guide that you can move up and down so all hole punches are property aligned. A 'work around' for this punch is slightly fold your paper you are about to punch with a crease at the half-way point on the edge you will be putting into the punch. Align the crease with the center black guide, then punch. All you sheets will be identically punched."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2016', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Take the punch out of the box, remove two clips that hold down the lever for shipping and you are ready to go. Punches holes with minimal effort and looks great. The holes are cleanly cut and there is a paper alignment on one end so every time you punch the holes will be in the same place. I like having papers in my binder line up so this is a big plus.\n\nAlso comes with a lifetime warranty so no need to ever purchase another punch.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Works great! You're limited to pretty small stacks of paper, but that's to be expected. There's plenty of leverage, so even with my tendonitis I don't find it difficult to cut through paper. The holding compartment is pretty easy to take off; just make sure you're careful so you don't flip paper bits all over the place."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': 'The hole puncher was confusing at first. It turns out you have to push paper to the left, which has a small edge to place it against. So, that centers the paper to punch holes in it.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Needed an extra 3 hole puncher for my speech therapy room and didn't want to pay a fortune (since I don't get reimbursed for supplies at my public school). This hole puncher is sleek looking, easy to use and works like a gem! Punches holes in the same 3 spots every time (which makes the papers in my Data Log Binder look neat and organized). My students use it frequently as well to punch holes in their worksheets to place in their folders and binders, so it gets a lot of use. I like it so much I may order another one to replace my old 3 hold puncher in my home office (which never puts the holes in the same place and drives me crazy). This is a good buy."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I love this hole puncher. It's not heavy nice and light. It's small compared to the one i used to have. I don't see their being an option to adjust the hole punching. Its all centered to one setting of hole punching. But it's exactly what I need. My 5yr son is doing online school due to the pandemic and i want to organize his assignments into a binder. This worked great and the binder is looking very neat. It does not hold more than 12 pages, it's very easy to use. The papers do not get stuck, easy to clean out. I am very satisfied"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2016', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I just created my home office and needed to buy a lot of items. I purchased this based on the reviews and the great price point. I also based it on my memory of Bostich products from my college days (I still have my old Bostich staplers)...this hole punch was every bit as sturdy and well made as they used to be (unlike so many other brand names) It even punched more than the recommended 12 sheet limit :)'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2021', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I am currently taking a class that is normally in person, but due to Covid we are doing classes virtually. This means that I have a lot of papers to print off and put into a binder so that I can keep things organized. This three hole punch works so much better than I could have anticipated. It takes more than 3 to 5 pages, which I was used to when I was in the employment arena, and punches the holes with ease. I am very satisfied with my purchase.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I very much like the ease of use. The punches are sharp and will go through multiple sheets of paper easily. I have other punches that I plan on tossing after this purchase. No more slamming down on my hands trying to get a couple of sheets of paper punched.\n\nUPDATE: I have now punched thousands of sheets of paper. I should have probably gotten a commercial puncher, But honestly, this one is still as sharp as the day I bought it. It works smoothly and easily, still far better than other more expensive brands.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I had a wonderful heavy duty manual puncher. It weighed a ton and was so efficient. I purchased it over 20+ years ago. Took it from job to job. On return to my office from time out, it had walked. WTH? Just grateful that my red stapler didn't grow legs as well.\nDid not want to spend gobs of money and settled on this. Very pleased! Smooth action, clean punches. Have to break the project down to smaller bits but it does an excellent job.\nWill continue to search for old faithful but this little guy is doing the job with the minimum of fuss. Perfect!"}]
