Bostitch Office EZ Squeeze Reduced Effort 2-Hole Punch, 2 Sheets, Locking Handle, Silver (231)

Good quaility. Does what it’s supposed to do

Well made 2 hole punch that has a good sturdy weight, as expected with this Brand. It does a great job & is more compact (NOT flemsy or cheap). Easy to empty. I use it all day at work and it still works like new! Great product at a good price.

easy to use and compact.

I bought one for the office and then one for home, great product. I recommend.

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 shouldn't slide around very much. It's 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 won't 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 aren't at least a little mechanically inclined.2. The slide for adjusting the paper widths (8.5 and 11 inches) isn't 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 wouldn't last long if the tray is emptied often. I don't 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 don't put added stress on the plastic hinge.The two hole punch does the job but I still have the above concerns and don't find it to be as rugged as older Bostitch products that I've owned or used.

Heavy-duty. Easy to use. Handles 8-10 pages with minimal effort. The alignment bars stay put. This should last a decade or 2.

Works great! Love the locking feature so it fits in a drawer.

Excellent product, just as described. Thick metal. DIN A4 format on the metal strip is desirable.
