Fast and Efficient

Purchased this yesterday to save on time stapling my black plastic to my boards to make my garden. Saved me a lot of time and would recommend for a lot of home projects.

Very reliable and easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I work as a maintenance director at a bible camp and am always looking for tools that are reasonably priced and reliable. I Purchased the HT50MG because I had one before and loved how it worked. It is easy to use, reliable and does not jamb like other tack hammers I have used in the past. I would recommend it to my friends.

A must have product the HT 55 stapler

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] HT 55 the model & I call it the staple bar as so easy to work with. Getting little cold in Minnesota and snow will come so needed to put up plastic cover for the chickens. It's so great that with this stapler I don't have to ask anyone for help. I use the 5:/16 staples and always so appreciate how great this combo works. Very reasonable price also.

Good for dining room chair reupholstery

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The PowerShot T50HS was super helpful for reupholstering our dining room chairs. We used 3/8-inch T50 staples. Because the fabric was pretty thick, this was the shortest staple we could use and still get that penetration of about 3/16-inch to 1/4-inch. We were also stapling into MDF, which can be pretty difficult to penetrate, so we didn't want to use a longer staple than was absolutely necessary. It went well, and our chairs look like new!

Excellent for attaching felt paper on a roof, and house wrap on walls.

I'm a hobbyist carpenter, but I enjoy making my measurements precise, and my projects look nice. The HT50MG isn't a precision instrument of course, but it is efficient and well designed, and as part of my arsenal of other well designed and efficient tools, it contributes to a job well done that I can be proud of.

This stapler came in pretty handy when installing vapour barrier after insulating my garage… smack smack… done!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hammer stapler worked very well, I was able to get a pretty good grip on it and it didn't jam once throughout the installation of vapour barrier in my 24' x 24' garage. Would recommend for sure.

Plastic breaks

I'm a framer, this is the only hammer tacker of this style that I have. (I have a couple of the more straight Stanley style). This one fell on the plastic clip end (hey, things fall when you work!) the plastic clip broke, so the rail wouldn't stay in, often times popping out when you hit it for a staple. Today, it popped out, the inner spring and staple slide (whatever the parts are called) flew out and disappeared. Couldn't find it in the dirt. So this expensive tacker is now in the bin. Why plastic??
