Description
This hot dog stapler turns an everyday desk job into something to smile at, with a glossy brown dachshund sitting snugly in a yellow bun and a wavy squirt of red ketchup running along its back. Underneath the fun, it is a proper working mini stapler with a silver metal mechanism set into a brown base, and it comes with a box of 1000 staples, so it is ready to use straight away. It measures 11.6cm long, 3.2cm wide and 8.5cm tall, and at just 104g it is light enough to tuck into a pencil case or a desk drawer.
We think it earns its place on a home office desk, a study table or a busy shared workspace, where the little tools get picked up every day. It takes 24/6 staples, so you know exactly which refills to reach for when the supplied box runs low. It fastens anything from 2 to 18 sheets, which suits letters, receipts, notes, recipes and short reports, and it holds up to 50 staples at a time, so you are not reloading every few minutes. When a staple lands in the wrong place, the built-in staple remover lifts it out without a search for a separate tool.
The body is ABS plastic and the stapling parts are metal, as are the staples themselves, giving a light stapler with a metal working core. Its flat brown base lets it sit neatly on a desk between jobs, with the dachshund's head and the ketchup-topped bun on show. To keep the colours bright, wipe the plastic with a soft damp cloth and dry it, and dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth. It makes a cheerful little gift for anyone who likes a bit of humour among their pens and paper, and a fun way to brighten a plain desk.
