Although a narrow crown stapler is not something you need every day, it is a very useful tool. The holding power of a staple over a nail is much greater especially with thin materials. The SX150K is an excellent tool. It is feather light, is depth adjustable and just feels good in the hand. This tool is also priced right. You won’t be disappointed.

I had this Bostitch SX150K stapler for a little over 2 months. I was not impressed with it at ALL! It jammed often, didn’t countersink, felt “sloppy”, and lacked power to set 1-1/2″ staples in hardwood. I ended up selling it on eBay and buying a Ridgid stapler instead. My impression of the Ridgid stapler are, it is superior! Every detail seems to have been carefully thought out with it, fit/finish is superb, no jambs (yet!), tons of power, just as light as the Bostich, and it has a lifetime parts/service warranty! I suggest you steer clear of the Bostitch SX150K, and look at the Ridgid instead. (Check on eBay, I got my for $59.99 + $9.99 S/H!)

I’ve purchased tis item last year and it works great, even with a small compressor. It’ll sink the staples & you can adjust the depth. Also the staples are galvanized so you can use it outside. Frank Nielsen

I’ve had this stapler for over a year now. It has done everything I expected it to do. No misfires, no problems. Couldn’t ask for more. After reading the reviews here I guess it comes down to luck. Do you feel lucky? I chose this particular one even though the salesman at Home Depot suggested I not pick it. Funny thing, however, this same sales person, when told that I was looking to replace a Craftsman pneumatic stapler, said that owning a Craftsman would be slightly worse than not having one at all. He was right. I was lucky and I’d do it again.

I bought this stapler to replace an old Atro stapler and was very disappointed with it. While it is better than my old stapler in some respects, the bostitch line has not kept up with the competition. First problem with it was the fact that even on it deepest setting it would only drive a staple about 1/32 below the wood and often only flush, I had to use a nail set to sink to thing. You also have no idea how many staples are left or what size they are. A better window would help and is easy to do. Plus a lot of miss fires happen. This tool caused a lot of blemishes on my work and had to be shelved, and used only for background work. I bought the Hitachi stapler, and it’s a world of differences. Very smooth operation, good depth of drive, and a nice window to see the remaining staples. And that’s using the Boxes of Bostitch staples I had bought for the Bostitch gun.
