rgathright's Full Review: Swingline 711 Half-Strip Staplers
Paper is everywhere.
Under your desk and chair.
Hanging between binder and folder.
Was all we could to find order.
To keep the paper under control.
Swingline invented staplers to patrol.
Crafty and mobile, paper moved to the laser jet.
With the flood, the new stapling demand could not be met.
Then one bright day came the Model 711.
Small and portable he was welcomed by everyone.
The little stapler can fit in the pocket.
Just don't get him near a socket!

The Swingline Model 711 is a handy little stapler to have on your desk or next to a copy machine. I purchased my stapler a month ago and really enjoy it! You see my new job revolves around upgrading my company's legacy ordering system to Microsoft Dynamics AX. Needless to say, the volume of paper I generate for training sessions can eclipse 100 pages a day! I can carry the stapler in my pocket as I move between departments and train users. When the stapler is not being used, I keep it in the corner of my desk. Since the Model 711 is so small, I have more room for my Sony D-NF340 Personal CD MP3 Player.
My favorite feature of the stapler has to be the little name tag embedded in the rubber boot. You can pry it out and put a 2" x 3/8" note to let everyone know it's your stapler! I called mine "Darth Stapler" just because its black and has a nasty bite. The stapler does have it's drawbacks. You can only load about half a strip of staples in it. For my uses this is fine, but if you push more paper than I do, you should definitely consider another model. Another problem that comes up often is the stapler cannot bind more than 18-20 sheets of paper. You have to bash the head of the stapler really hard just to get through 20 which in the long-term can damage it.
The stapler measures 5.5 x 2.3 x 1.8 inches and weighs about 8 ounces loaded. The stapler features durable all-metal construction with soft-touch materials for stapling comfort on the head and base of the unit. For the refined paper binder, you can also find the stapler in platinum with the ACCO sku: S7071102A.
