Customer Reviews:

Great Staples [Posted on 2002-01-13]
Used these staples on all types of under layment and the staples held the flooring with no problem. The staples were very hard to remove.

Bostitch Staples [Posted on 2002-09-23]
I received 2 shipments of staples. First order was not packaged properly and all staples were loosely packaged. Staples I received in first shipment was broken up. Individual section had been seperatedin 4 to 12 staples. Utilized what was intact awaiting second shipment. This shipment was properly packaged with all staples in tack. These worked Great. When I inserted loose staples 4 to 6 staples, I experienced jams and discontinued use of first shipment.

Packaging is definitely a problem [Posted on 2006-03-15]
When I opened the box of staples I was shocked to find that the staples were literally thrown into the box with nothing securing them in any way. The staples were bent and broken apart from each other making them totally unusable. I can't vouch for the staple performance because I returned the box as soon as I received it. Harbor Freight has the same staples for less than half the price (and the packaging was adequate).

received in intact condition [Posted on 2007-11-12]
Even with two bad reviews I ordered it from Amazon.com. I received it within two days as Prime member. It was intact. The staples work fine in my Bostitch floor stapler.
I had encountered problem with some of Harbor Freight staples. They are not identical merchandise. B&C staples are galvanized.I can not understand why anybody will install wood floor in a high moisture area. I guess that is what galvanized material for.
I am not a pro. I only do my own property floor installations. I had used about 20,000+ staples in the past years. I am happy with the qualities of both the nailer and B & C staples.

Beware!! [Posted on 2008-02-21]
Poor packaging. Someone apparently dropped and box the staples were in and it had broken open and scattered the staples throughout the Amazon box. In addition, these staples are not coated with adhesive as are the Bostitch staples. I had to return them and ordered the Bostitch staples. Now I have to wait for a March 3 ship date.
