Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was given this stapler as a birthday present last year. I'm a big fan of Office Space, and so it was more of a sentimental gift than a utilitarian one. I was working in a cube farm at the time, and my red stapler provoke many Office Space quotes.
I know this isn't the official red stapler of the movie, as that one was actually spray painted by the props department. However, much like Milton's stapler, it's a good product. It doesn't bind up, crunch paper, or staple funny. And the smooth top and sides make it a comfortable stapler to handle. I have bad hands, and most places I work either have the flimsy plastic staplers that feel like they're going to crush when you staple, or they have the large, clunky staplers with square corners that cut into your hand if you have to squeeze staple. So, while it's funny to think of a stapler as ergonomic, it really it. I also really like that it has ample weight for it's size, and a nice rubberized bottom to keep it from slipping.
Office space jokes aside, this is a stapler worth getting. And hey, if there are any Office Space fans around, they'll appreciate this bright red reminder.

About Swingline Founded in 1925 in New York City by Jack Linsky as the Parrot Speed Fastener Company, the company now known as Swingline is located in the rolling hills northwest of Chicago. Currently a division of the ACCO Brands Corporation, Swingline made its reputation over 60 years ago as the first stapler manufacturer to let you pop open the top of the product and drop in the staples. They've been making equally revolutionary developmental strides in stylish office products ever since. Movie buffs may recall that a Swingline product was featured in the 1999 cult-classic film "Office Space." One disgruntled employee, named Milton, complains repeatedly that his red Swingline stapler was stolen and eventually sets fire to the office building in retaliation. Although at the time Swingline had not manufactured red staplers for years, customer demand was so tremendous that in 2002 they released a limited edition series.
