Office staplers are so ubiquitous, it's easy to under-think the purchase. There are four main types of staplers: basic desktop staplers, electric staplers, heavy-duty staplers and specialty staplers. While it's tempting to just grab the first (and least expensive) stapler model you come across, there are a few thing to consider before making your purchase:
- How many people will use the stapler.
- How often you have to staple documents in your office.
- How many sheets you usually have to staple together.
-
What sort of documents you regularly staple. Will you need to
assemble booklets, brochures or magazines?
Each of the four main stapler styles are designed to meet different needs, and feature a variety of auxiliary options.
