SwinglineHole Punch, Heavy Duty Hole Puncher, Adjustable, 2-4 Holes, 40 Sheet Punch Capacity, Black (74450)

cuts through the paper like butter

Yes! I love this thing! I use this to punch holes through my Tupperware catalogs so I can put them in mini binders for parties. This allows me to use the same set of catalogs for each season. Putting them in these mini binders tells the party guests that these are not for taking home. It also allows me to slide in order forms and our mid month brochures and other sales right inside too. So each guest gets a complete packet.Prior to this I was tearing the books apart and sliding them into sleeve protectors and putting them into 3 prong folders. This took A LOT of time to do. I usually made 10 folders at a time and this saves me a ton of time now! And they are smaller so its easier to pack up and carry.This punches clean through. I will mention that the first few punches, there was a lot of oil residue left on my catalogs. After a few more punches the extra oil was gone. It cuts clean through easily. The sticky ruler was not in place when I took it out of the box so I had to put it back on.This is heavy but is also heavy duty. I dropped it on my concrete garage floor once already and it took it like a champ. I'm very happy with this product.

Quality product but mine was damaged when it arrived. They need to pack it better. I glued mine back together because it wasn't enough to stop it from working, but if I could go back in time I'd return it for a new one that isn't damaged.

I have some A4 size stamp album pages that I wanted to put into A4 size binders, but they have 4 rings. I tried punching new holes with a normal US 3 hole paper punch by taking the center punch out and resetting the other two, making two holes, then turning the paper over, adjusting, and punching the other two holes. This was going to be very tedious for the amount of papers I have, so ordered this Swingline even though it was more than I wanted to pay. I got it when it was at a discount and it is wonderful! It does all 4 holes at once and does many more pages at a time than the other punch did. It is going to be a huge time and frustration saver.

I did a lot of research before choosing a heavy duty paper punch. I specifically purchased this Swingline model to punch A4 paper (4 holes) for my planners.However, while cleaning out my file cabinet, I decided to also use it to better organize my messy, overflowing collection of file folders of user/installation manuals (appliances, electronics, household devices etc.) so they could be stored in a 3 ring binder. Wow! This model punched 3 holes in 20/25 page manuals and booklets easily. It truly exceeded my expectation.Note, this model (#74450) is set up out of the box with 3 punch heads installed for 3-hole punching. It contains a fourth punch head in the chad tray which you will have to install for 4-hole punching. In addition to the full adjustability of this model, it is also expandable. You can purchase additional punch heads for up to 7 hole punching. Unit feels very well made and I feel like I got my money’s worth.
