This stapler is thoughtfully designed for easy use. Its compact body fits snugly in the hand, and it doesn't require a lot of force to press down. A clear window lets you see where you are stapling so that you don't accidentally staple over a line of text. Its small size also makes it easy to store and carry. Keep it handy in your pencil case, slip it into a drawer, or hang it on the wall by threading a strap through the small hole under the handle. To use this stapler, slide up to 5 sheets of paper into the slot and press down. If you need an extra-strong hold, staple the paper twice at the corner so that the stapled holes form a 90° angle. This is useful for thinner paper and documents that need to stand up to extensive flipping. To discard accumulated paper debris, slide the clear window forward and flip it open over a trash can.
