Awesome Hole Punch by Bostitch!

Awesome hole punch! I needed something for my home office and this punch is perfect. It does up to 12 sheets with no issues and minimal effort. It's super easy to align the papers into the punch and the chip tray is removable for easy disposal of the punched paper. My only complaint is that I wish it would come in different colors!! Overall nice job Bostitch!

Who doesn't need the item at least once?

I have so many of these but they're all are in storage. Being too lazy to go through my boxes to find them I opted to buy a new one. And I'm lad. This is better than the ones I already have. Built very well, makes clean holes. Very satisfied with this item!

i can put holesin paper..

this allowed me to do something my knife didnt. accurate vand rounded holes in paper without the extra bloody finger. great invention..

As good as/better than the old days!

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 :)

Does its job well, sturdy, looks nice

This is a keeper. It is well constructed with metal and hard plastic. The punching mechanism works smoothly, great for ~10 sheets at once, which is sufficient for me to use at home. It looks stylish and doesn't take up much space. Would buy it again.

Well built, perfect hole punches every time

This hole punch cuts through paper like a warm knife through butter. It is made with all-metal construction, except for the plastic tray on the bottom which is used to store the punched holes. There is a nice metal stopper on the end of the hole punch as well so you get even cuts every time. This design makes it easy to remove and clean. I was easily able to cut through the recommended 12-page limit. You can probably squeeze in another sheet or two, to be honest. I would purchase again, but I am confident this one will last me a long time.

Last hole punch you will need

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. Also comes with a lifetime warranty so no need to ever purchase another punch.

Bostitch Office 3-hole Punch

Works well and snaps back. I did get it stuck once because I punched out some soft plastic that jammed it. I just took a skinny screw driver and gave it a little hit with a small hammer.

Stylish, works well, but not on 12 pages as they say

This one is definitely a keeper for me, it works great, looks beautiful, and I don't use it on more than just a few pages at once. A sure winner for those who prefer their office look sleek and fun. But 12 pages claim is a bit of a stretch. It barely fits them in. And it does the punching job but not without a certain effort (and I am a metalsmith, using my arm muscles is not something I shy away from). You can effortlessly punch through about 8 pages (depending on the paper thickness). So, if you only need it for light jobs, it is awesome. Otherwise, get a heavier duty one.

Great leverage

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.
