Colorful Automatic Electronic Stapler (4 x AA)

Pros: The stapler is designed to look really geeky and technical, great gadget to have on your desk! The parts deliberately use many different colors of plastic to look really high-tech. Simple, safe operation and if it jams you can reverse the motor and eject the staples with the big red button on top. Clearly built to last with thick, heavy plastic.

Cons: A bit expensive for a simple stapler, but worth the premium for the novelty effect. Uses standard 24/6 or 26/6 staples which are cheap in bulk. It looks difficult to get the transparent outer shell off without damaging it if you ever need to fix something inside of it. (but if you lose a staple or other small object inside the shell, you should be able to just shake it back out)

Other: Love it! I hope they make more "naked" gadgets like this where you can see the mechanism inside. Still waiting for my tape dispenser to arrive in the mail to complete the set :)

Pros: This model is exactly the same as other more expensive models, and by exactly, I mean exactly. Very easy to use, just works. There is something very satisfying about the mechanics and noise as it does its thing.

Cons: Colour choices are a bit garish. Mine is purple and green, so I've named it Barney. Will happily staple 8 pages with no problems. Haven't tested any more than that.

Other: Even if this breaks in a year, I will buy another one. I cannot go back to manual staples.

Pros: Simply fantastic. Modern design and vibrant colors are the highlight. The clear acrylic lets you see the whole interior. Staples up to 10 sheets 90g and 75g could staple 15.

Cons: The large size to a stapler and did not come with a power supply included.

Other: Despite the size and use of batteries you can use a power supply with 7.5V and 800mAh. A beautiful product and very good construction, no burrs or defects in plastics. Great for those who like to modernity in his office.
