This hole puncher is strong and durable. It is different from other hole punchers in that the paper guide is stationary, Non-adjustable. It only works on one size paper, office paper (8 1/2 X 11). This is great for accuracy and speed. I never have to worry about punching holes in the wrong area of the paper because the paper guide accidently slid up or down. This also means that I don't have to re-position the paper guide everytime I use the hole puncher. It's already set and ready to punch. Quick, Easy, Accurate, Durable, & Inexpensive.

This punch only handles one size of paper, but as I only use one size it is fine for me. It truly is a workhorse, and is well worth the money. I can punch holes in up to 40 pages at a time, and it works with ease - I don't have to use undue force to make the holes and it positions it correctly every time. I highly recommend this punch.
We have this hole puncher in my office and it truly makes my day whenever I "have" to use it! Sad, but true. This is the best hole puncher I've ever used. Ever. The sound it makes as it slices through reports is so satisfying. I was surprised the other day when it effortlessly punched through a staple, too! I just ordered one for my home, as well, and I recommend it to anyone!
This is a great hole punch, a quality tool. It does one job and it does the job right. It has a lifetime warranty, and judging by the quality of the design and construction you can expect it to last a 'lifetime' and still work well. You have to apply quite a bit of pressure to punch the full 40 sheets, I have to stand up and put my weight on the bar to punch that many, but it punches them neatly and cleanly even at max capacity.
I did a lot of research on hole punches before buying this one. For the price Amazon offers (not to mention free super saver shipping), it's an awesome deal, and this seems to be the best hole punch in this sheet capacity range that you can buy.
Love this 3-hole punch. Work as a volunteer at a local school and the three-hole punches in the volunteer room are always broken or the one good one goes missing. Decided to purchase one myself. The CARL is heavy duty and works like a charm. Just wish the slide was adjustable.
After dealing with a couple of duds, it is great to find this great reasonably priced hole punch. We bought it for a conference which involved punching reams of course materials. It is sturdy, can punch a large quantity at a time and is easy on the hands. The fact that you cannot move the location of the holes is a plus to us...it means fewer moving parts decreasing the chance that something will break and it ensures uniformity. The container for the punchings is a little hard to open and results in confetti on the floor if one doesn't hold it over the wastebasket. We always comparison shop and this was the best price.
I have been using a terrible hole puncher at school for the past ten years. (hole guide shifting after every punch, a deluge of holes raining upon the classroom floor, fractured palms, etc.) After rejecting the new gold punch, I went on-line to find one that would work. Carl works. If you need some holes punched, I'm the guy to see. This punch smoothly and efficaciously handles 40 sheets - maybe more - with an ease that makes me teary-eyed. Buy it and eat the bill. - 3 Hole Punch - Hole Punch - Swingline 3-hole-punch'
