A piece of garbage Nov 05, 2008
This stapler is the worst....constant jams, no-fires, misfires, and plain tiring to the hands. So much for their ergonomic design! I bought mine at Lowes and without a receipt (my bad) they won't refund. Don't waste your money on this stapler. I threw mine away and bought the simple one from Arrow...works like a charm.

What a waste of time!! Jul 27, 2008
I bought one of these a few years ago and have never gotten it to properly lay even a single stick of staples. It will false-fire (act like it's shooting a staple then not lay one), mis-fire (shooting the staple when you release pressure on the trigger), not fire at all, and then jam consistently. Finally in frustration, I opened it up to see what the problem was. One of the anvil pins is too short. As this is a hardened & polished pin, you're not gonna find one at your local hardware store. and because my problems have been reflected by many others with similar experiences, I can only conclude this was not a one-off assembly line error. Clearly someone got cheap and decided to save a few pennies by intentionally using a shorter pin (and probably got a promotion for saving the company money). This thing went into the scrap pile & I went back to my father's old Arrow that has worked for 40 years now. This, combined with similar problems I have had with other new Black & Decker products, I can only assume the proud name of Black & Decker is now being used to market cheap & shoddy products with no concern for use or life after the sale. No more Black & Decker products for me.

UGH! Jul 13, 2008
I bought the Powershot a week ago. I needed and liked the ability of this tool to staple wires without penetrating them. I also thought the design was very logical and more ergonomically correct.

I shot about 5 staples and then it began to misfire, no staple came out. I removed the loading spring, shot a few more staples and then it jammed.
I cleared the jam per instructions and then the operation only got worse.

I should have read the reviews before purchasing. It goes back today and I don't want a new one...I want a different model or brand.

VERY DISSAPOINTED!

Piece of junk! Jul 04, 2008
I purchased the 5700 about two years ago and used the load of staples that was already installed in the stapler. Finally, after about a year, I ran out of the already loaded staples, and purchased a box of Arrow replacement staples - box showed the staples to be for the 5700. Unfortunately, the staples don't fit! I even found the box of sample staples that came with the stapler - even those won't fit.
I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone!!!

Horrible product Jun 20, 2008
I removed the stapler from its packaging, put the proper staples in it, went to staple some chicken wire to some wood and it jammed after 10 staples. I can't remove the jammed staple because it is caught in the interior mechanism and there is no way to get to it. I'm going to return it right now!
