Review: it puts staples in paper, PERFECTLY - 📝 Five‑Star Review of the World’s Most Chaotically Average Stapler If you’re searching for a stapler that almost does its job but also enjoys keeping you humble, look no further. This metallic menace has mastered the art of pretending to staple while actually just bending the staple into a sad little pretzel. A true performance artist. ✨ Highlights include: • The thrilling suspense of wondering whether it will staple this time or simply bonk the paper like a disapproving parent. • The ergonomic design that ensures maximum hand strain with minimum results. • The delightful way it jams at the exact moment you’re already late and questioning your life choices. Honestly, this stapler has taught me patience, resilience, and the importance of breathing exercises. It’s less an office tool and more a character‑building device. Would I recommend it? Absolutely. To my enemies.
Review: Excellent Quality - So many choices of stapler on here its almost a degree course in itself studying the various reviews trying to decide which one to buy. Apart from this being metal and a decent brand I gave up and just bought this one which was relatively inexpensive. Pleasantly surprised, nice weight, good quality, decent amount of staples included and it works well. I imagine this will last years.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hello, I purchased this stapler 30/04/14 and the long spring has fallen out already, please could you advise how this can be repaired.**
A: Greetings, we havnt had this issue, however heres my analysis...the spring has rings on either end, these attach to 2 hooks, 1 in the roof of the top & one on the botton rail near the hinge. The spring goes above the hinge from the bottom hook, all the way up to the white plastic dowel on the end of the upper half of the stapler, then it goes along the length of the upper section, hugging the dull grey chassis that has 2 holes in it. This will reqiire some fine tweasers & a torch! A magnifying glass would be helpful too. I believe lubricating the lower running rail would ease the strain on the spring. I wish you the best in this challenge!

**Q: Hi there, is this the round head model or the newer square head? Kind regards.**
A: It is squarish but quite streamlined.  hope this answers your question John B

**Q: Will it staple A4 sheets folded in half (i.e. A5)**
A: No, it wont, I bought it for that purpose and am now returning it

**Q: I have a cork board and I want to use staples instead of nails. Can this stapler staple horizontally?**
A: Good morning, 

This Marlin stapler can staple in three ways: 
1. It can staple regularly, using the anvil (metal part underneath where the stapler comes out) so the staple legs close under your paper
2. It can pin, turning the anvil around so the legs of the staple go outwards through your paper instead of closing underneath it, 
and 3. It can tack directly against the wall 

Do be sure to check which length of staples you need and are using for your stapling jobs.
I hope this helps, and if you require any further information you can contact me directly at katherine.wright@rapesco.com. 

Have a lovely day!
Kind regards, 
Katherine

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ it puts staples in paper, PERFECTLY

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Quality
*by N***B on 31 August 2025*

So many choices of stapler on here its almost a degree course in itself studying the various reviews trying to decide which one to buy. Apart from this being metal and a decent brand I gave up and just bought this one which was relatively inexpensive. Pleasantly surprised, nice weight, good quality, decent amount of staples included and it works well. I imagine this will last years.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ No rubberised base, though it still does the intended task well.
*by C***L on 24 February 2021*

I never thought I’d ever review something as simple as a stapler... But if it works well, then I’m more than happy to. Pro: ______ • Priced at £7.50 at the time of this review. With the staple gun, staple remover, 5000 staples and additional 1/2 staples preloaded. So it’s a bargain as opposed to purchasing separately, even on Amazon. I did a basic search using the cheapest options for each item and considered the additional half-loaded gun. This works out at £3.20p for the bundle. So it's value for money. The gun only option priced at just shy of £5.70. * I’d think for the majority, but some people may not know, the button underneath allows to you reposition the metal plate to where the stable will “pin” and not close at the ends. So the staple can be removed almost instantaneously without any effort. The standard use option closes the ends securely. * It feels of high quality and build. * Gun fully opens, allowing easy access to refill when required. * I haven’t used the 25 sheets capability stated within the description. However, I have used a maximum of 15 sheets at 120gsm (grams per square) but tackles this easily. Read the additional comments at the end of the review to see examples. Negatives: ______ The base isn't rubberised, so you may find it slips a little, although not too much, as the weight compresses. But it's worth noting. Conclusion: ______ Overall would I recommend it? Yes, j would highly suggest purchasing the bundle as this is where the savings are. Though if the bass was rubberised, then this would be perfect. A well deserved 4! Additional Comments: I have tried to be as descriptive as possible to give you an idea. 1. 35-55 gsm – The lightest type of paper, ranging from translucent tracing paper to newsprint. 2. 75-90 gsm – You’ll find this weight of paper in sketchpads or notebooks. It’s thick enough to draw on with a pencil, but heavy ink or marker may bleed through. 3. 90-100 gsm – This is the weight of most types of household printer paper. 4. 120-140 gsm – The weight of your average promotional poster. Think movie posters hanging on a teenager’s bedroom walls or product posters hanging in store windows. 5. 210-300 gsm – This thicker type of paper is stiffer but still bendable. You’ll see it used for some magazine covers and higher-quality flyers. This is also the weight of most paper used for watercolours or painting. 6. 350-450 gsm – The highest GSM paper is pretty much cardstock. This is the stiffest, sturdiest paper and is used for business cards and invitations.
