Bostitch Office EZ Squeeze Reduced Effort 2-Hole Punch, 20 Sheets, Locking Handle, Silver (2310)

Most of us find more usage for a 3 hole puncher but for certain sitautions, a 2 hole puncher is needed. This one does the job efficiently and accurately. I think buying this item online is a lot easier as you may not find it at many retailers.

What I was looking.

Better than expected

No complains about the appearance, very cute and well made. Not really happy with 2. 1. Im not quite sure which point it makes an exact 8.5 distance. 2. The cut with 15 pages is not very clean. Im still keeping it because its serve the purpose of a small home office. Its overall a well made SMALL hole puncher.

Ours came with a paper guide that did not fit. It completely slid out - no tension at all

I was doubtful that this hole punch would punch 20 sheets of paper as the manufacturer claims, but I can now verify that it really does! I put it to the test with regular computer paper, heavier paper, and some pretty thick cardstock and this little gadget did well with everything I tried. It punched perfect holes into a stack of twenty sheets of computer paper with no problem at all. The holes were perfect and there was no struggle at all. It also worked very well with the thicker pieces of paper and cardstock, although I did use less sheets at a time for those. The hole punch is very small and lightweight, easy to press, and easy to store. If you need to punch paper with just two holes, Id highly recommend. I personally wish it did three holes, since Id use it more often but it does what it claims to do and does it extrememly well.

Defective and poor made product not worth the price I paid !!!

Bostitch Office EZ Squeeze is an attractive two hole punch that will look good on a desk. It definitely is easy to punch through a stack of papers with very little effort. It has a nice weight to it, so it shouldnt slide around very much. Its mostly made of metal, a rare occurance nowadays. Being able to lock the handle down is a very nice feature, it could prevent someone from accidentally hitting it and knocking the punch to the floor. There is a small pin that you slide to the left to lock the handle down while you depress the handle or slide to the right at you depress the handle, a very useful feature. There are two small, round rubber feet at the rear that probably wont grip very well, from the looks and feel of them. Unfortunately, it has several negative features. 1. There are no instructions with it, so hopefully, my review will help those who arent at least a little mechanically inclined. 2. The slide for adjusting the paper widths (8.5 and 11 inches) isnt very sturdy and can be pulled completely out with the possiblity of losing the adjustment slide. If the punch falls to the floor with the adjustment slide out, the slide could be broken. There are two detents as you pull the slide out, one for 8.5 inches and one for 11 inches, just pull the slide out until you feel the detent for the size paper you are punching. 3. The chip tray locks on the body very nicely and it a bit difficult to open if you have weak or arthritic hands. The chip tray has a plastic hinge that probably wouldnt last long if the tray is emptied often. I dont know if the tray will stay attached once the hinge breaks, after one use I can see stress marks in the hinge. Just be careful to only lower the chip tray a little to dump the chips so you dont put added stress on the plastic hinge. The two hole punch does the job but I still have the above concerns and dont find it to be as rugged as older Bostitch products that Ive owned or used.

I have a home filing problem. It seems there is paper and more paper everywhere. Old bills, receipts, medical receipts, car insurance contracts, appliance manuals, where does it all end? A while ago, I had bought a box of standard file folders to hold it all, but with such folders paper tends to fall out each time you pull one out. Then I remembered that years ago I worked in an office that relied heavily on a Two-Hole punch and standard fasteners to keep files neat and in order. When the PaperPro Two-Hole Punch became available through Amazon, I figured why not try it, and I ordered one, plus some inexpensive standard (Acco) fasteners. What do you know! With just a few punches and some quick fastening, all my bills and important papers and neat and tidy, taking up just so much space in my home filing cabinet. Even better, the PaperPro Two-Hole punch lives up to its hype; the punch is smaller than standard punchers, and actually folds and locks easily to fit back in its small box. The punch also pops through paper neatly and cleanly, and takes less effort to use than the old punchers I was used to from years ago. All in all a very thoughtfully designed product and one I will actually use for a long time. Recommended.

Great item
