Yes, I’m a self-professed MKE fanboy, but I try to remain honest and impartial, despite my love for (almost) all things Milwaukee. For this stapler, the m12 line is perfect. The weight distribution and proportions ensure a natural, comfortable grip. Holding the stapler for extended periods does not exert the hand or forearm. The site lines are clearly visible with no visual obstructions. The trigger resistance feels natural, with ample resistance to prevent accidentally firing a staple, but easy enough to press with fighting it. Even a meager 1.5a battery will lost many hours of all-day stapling, for such task as insulation installation or upholstery work. It is best if you can buy this tool as part of kit (preferably a “hackable” kit, to keep the cost of the tool as low as possible. Or, perhaps buy refurbished like I did, and only spend $60-ish instead of retail. If you’re already invested in the m12 family of tools, and you have or anticipate need for a stapler for larger, extended tasks, then this tool will be good addition to your Milwaukee arsenal. However, if you are not already invested in the m12 family, unless you find this stapler bundled with a battery and charger for an incredible price, I would not be able to justify purchasing it unless you have or anticipate having a need for extended tasks that require or benefit from stapling; this is not a gateway tool for Milwaukee or the m12 line of tools. This tool is best reserved for someone who is already invested in the Milwaukee (preferably) m12 line, doesn’t already have a sufficient stapler, and finds this tool at a good price.Read full review

I practiced using it on scrap 1/2" pressure treated plywood and chipboard wood. With only 10 turns of the adjuster I was able to sink 3/8" arrow staples evenly to the surface. With longer and greater depth 1/2" staples 20 turns seem to work perfectly. Actually cranked it to 50 turns and staples were neatly sunk just below the surface. I had no deformed staples. Best use practices: 1. I can adjust the depth by increasing downward pressure on stapler, 2. For best results I kept the entire stapler flat on the surface. It's a great product.

Typical Miiwaukee quality--excellent. A little heavier than I expected, but still comfortable even after hundreds of staples (installing house wrap). Nice not having to deal with an air compressor and hoses to hang the house wrap. Versatile and powerful. Easily drives1/2" staples into hardwood. Tool will come in handy for some automotive re-upholstery work.

Works great! Uses the 12 batteries that I already have which last a long time in the tool. Compact and easy to control. Easy to adjust for material being stapled. Easy to reload.

No more dealing with air compressor, hoses. Quiet, adjustable power level, long lasting battery power.
