The Optima 40 design requires less force than traditional staplers, so you can save your muscle for something that matters. Soft, ergonomic grip ensures comfortable stapling. Quiet stapler is designed to be less disruptive in offices and classrooms. Tasteful black and silver coloring with orange accents..

Review: A powerful mini - I didn’t realize I was ordering the compact size, but it turned out to be a really nice surprise. This stapler is powerful despite its smaller footprint and handles thick stacks of paper smoothly with minimal effort. It feels solid and well-made, and the reduced-effort feature actually makes a difference. Very easy to use, at the nice vibrant pop of color add to its modern chic look. The compact size is perfect for a desk without taking up much space. If you want something strong, reliable, and space-efficient, this stapler delivers more than you’d expect.
Review: Great stapler! - It has been years since I purchased a new stapler. My other swingline lasted a very long time so when I needed to purchase a new one I decided to get same brand. This stapler is fabulous. Great staple action. The stapler can stand on its end leaving more desk room. I like the look and color. Just a pleasant surprise when this item arrived.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this stapler take regular staples?**
A: It will use regular stables, but it does not work reliably with them.  Don't buy it if you have to use regular staples.  Every negative review you see on this stapler is from people who used regular staples.  The bottom of the stapler, in very fine print says the following:  "Use Optima or S.F.3 staples."  If you do this, IMHO, is the best stapler made.

**Q: Are staples included with this product?**
A: Came with NO staples. Disappointing..

**Q: Does this stapler open to 180 degrees to use on bulletin boards?**
A: It does not open to 180 degrees, its a regular desk stapler.

**Q: Will this be okay to use for small volume like 2 pages as well, or only for high volume stapling?   Thanks.**
A: Works great for small volume (2 pages).   I use this stapler for work, so I use it a lot, and it hasn't given me any problems at all so far.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome, easy, quiet
*by K***N on May 26, 2025*

This stapler works great! It's quiet, lightweight but sturdy, and small, and I've had no problems stapling several pages, although I didn't often exceed 5 or so at a time. I'm replacing it because a couple hard falls damaged the (sadly) plastic outside of the stapler. Would buy again.
