There’s something oddly satisfying about that sound – it’s a clear, confident click that signals a job well done. It elevates the routine task of stapling, turning it into a small moment of accomplishment.Secure and ReliableBeyond the satisfying click, the Optima 25 feels significantly more secure than a standard stapler. Each staple goes in with precision and holds documents together with an almost reassuring firmness. Whether I’m stapling a few pages or the full 25-sheet capacity, I never have to worry about papers coming loose.

Since switching to this stapler, I haven’t experienced a single jam, saving me time and frustration. This reliability is invaluable, ensuring that my workflow remains smooth and uninterrupted.Reduced Effort, Comfortable UseAnother standout feature is the reduced effort required to staple. The Optima 25’s design significantly reduces the force needed to staple, making it easy on the hands even during extensive use. The soft grip adds to the comfort, providing a pleasant tactile experience that further enhances its usability.Stylish and DurableFunctionality aside, the Optima 25 is also aesthetically pleasing. The sleek blue design adds a pop of color to my desk, and the sturdy construction promises durability. It’s clear that Swingline has put thought into both the form and function of this stapler, creating a tool that looks good and performs even better.ConclusionThe Swingline Optima 25 Stapler is a standout in the realm of office supplies. Its satisfying click, secure stapling, jam-free performance, and ergonomic design make it a must-have for anyone looking to upgrade their stapling experience.

Highly recommended for those who appreciate the small joys in everyday tasks.

Love this stapler. Doesn't jam like it ther staplers. Great for thicker stacks

works well, seems well built, and it comfortable to use when holding the device in your hand.

Good and strong and easy to press. I have an old Staples orange stapler, single touch and they don't sell them any more. This is a good substitute but it's quite a bit heavier. So it's a good desk standing stapler. We're constantly stapling reports for folks in our office and a good stapler is a must.

Loved it until it kept jamming up over the last several months. Bought this in February of 2024 and I loved it however, in December it started jamming up a lot and now it stopped working all together...disappointed as it's only a year and a couple months old :(Update called the company direct and they are sending out a replacement. That is great news!

So, I bought this stapler for my 6th grade classroom because all the staplers in my room were broken and I was SICK OF IT! I decided that I wanted one of those fancy reduced effort staplers that you can simply push down with one finger and get a nice clean, flat staple. This arrived and I was very pleased. It's easy to put staples in (and I've had some staplers that, to this day, I can't figure out how the staples go in), and it worked as effortlessly as I was hoping it would. One day, after school, I needed to put student work up on the bulletin board in the hallway. This task requires one to open the stapler and use it against the wall. However, I couldn't open the stapler so I could use it that way. I checked the bottom...there was nothing there. No buttons or levers that would open the stapler. So, I started to pull up on the top of the stapler, thinking (as my father always told me) if force hasn't worked, you haven't used enough. It wouldn't open. Surely, a fancy stapler like this opens up, I thought. One more try. I got a good grip on the top of the stapler and pulled up, not realizing my finger was in front of the spot where the staple comes out. I gave it a good pull and a staple shot right into my finger, because, you know....reduced effort. And it was in there good! It did a REALLY good job of shooting that staple out and straight into my flesh. Thankfully, it did not hit the bone. I did however, need to go get a tetanus shot, just in case. So, be warned that this stapler does not open up so that you can staple on walls. I took one for the team. Now we all know. Otherwise, fantastic stapler!

Works great. Easy to operate and staples without much effort.
