Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2025Excellent quality and a great price for fiberglass insulation/netting installation
- Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2021I hate homeowner staplers. When my new boss handed me one, and a 9' roll of tarp, nodding towards the house frame, I said NO: I took the tarp back and got Tyvek, and then bought this hammer tacker. After that incident, there was no regrets and no looking back. Now I am the guy they call when they need paper put on a house. "Bring your wacker tacker, Jack."
Yep, you got it, because I am that guy: I own a wacker tacker, and I am a firm believer in palm nailers. Not sure I enjoy doing all this house wrapping and Teeko palm nailing of brackets, though. I was supposed to be a finish carpenter. Now I just wack tacks and palm Teekos!
Anyway, this Bostitch is, well, boss. It is a brand name I trust.
It would be cool if this thing had a screw hole to put a rope or lanyard on. It sits heavy in my bags, I would like to hang it from my belt better.
Anyway, this works great, been through a rain storm or two, just hit it inside with wd40 silicone specialist spray, and it wacks out staples like a tippity true champ! Turn it sideways, and it makes a perfect hammer!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2024Just finished roofing a new shed and the hammer tacker did a great job. We didn't have one for our last roofing job and boy was manually tacking down felt was a time consuming pain. This tacker was easy to use and load.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2025Works pretty good!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2025Bought 2 - way better than other hammer staplers. Excellent quality.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2024Perfectly perfect one handed stapler. Easily hold something tight and staple to your hearts desire
- Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2025Ok, this is my third one of these and have to say no more, sorry Bostich! The previous two jammed constantly after regular use and the staples get stuck and the head jams but the worst issue is the spring cartridge ALWAYS flies out of the back even sometimes when you just set it down or grab the end of the handle.. This is a very poor design and extremely annoying!! Works good for minimal use but forget about any production work, you'll be running all over chasing the cartridge and picking up staples! Bostich- I have several of your tools including other types of staplers, nail guns (even a framer from 25 years ago that still works...sometimes...) and many others and most all are great but please do something about locking the spring in
- Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2025It done its job but wasn’t made of good quality. Was light weight but, really too light. Didn’t want to put the staples in without rejecting them back. Bent most of them. I wouldn’t recommend it.
