Yes I would recommend it very satisfied high-quality. Ty

Great for office use

Good I have used these before

We bought this little single hole puncher mainly for punching, well, single holes! I've used mainly to punch the mounting holes for my homemade Mountain Bike mudguards/fenders, as these are the easiest and most versatile option (you could use a drill but there's more chance of it going wrong). BTW those mudguards were made out of thin plastic sheets, basically binder divider sheets. I like how these have a little "storage" flap at the bottom, which will retain all the little bits of holes you've punched out. Every handful of uses, you'll probably want to dump the the stuff out so it won't get clogged in there. It will also punch though thin cardboard, like TP rolls.I do wish these punchers had a foam or rubber slide-on grip covers, as after repeated punching, especially through thicker materials, your palms will hurt a little bit. Also, I do wish that this puncher had a little, sharp raised "lip", how these single hole punchers work is there's a flat, completely dull little metal disk that just uses brute force to punch through the material. If it had raised, sharp edges around the disk it'd be easier to punch stuff.However, all single hole punchers I've seen all "suffer" from these two "drawbacks", so take that as you will! Overall, solid puncher, oh, and it punches decently clean holes (some other reviewers say it punches really badly), you will probably need to clean up the edges a little if you're picky about the holes, but nothing major. And I almost forgot, I've had this puncher for over a year now, I use it maybe once or twice every month now.If you found this helpful, click the little "helpful" button below this review so others will see this review!

Great hole punch. Worked well for what needed it for. Cuts thicker paper easily.

Worked perfect for my earring cards.

Works

I bought this Swingline brand 1/4 in punch to use on making some flashcards with cardstock paper. After punching 5 holes, the punch seemed to misalign and wouldn't punch cleanly through. I tried to punch with no paper a few times and then go back to punching cardstock. The punch works intermittently, but ruins the flashcard when it misaligns. I felt it was defective and tried to return it, but was denied. I made the request for the return on the day after I received it and the item clearly said it was returnable. Very disappointed in the product and the denial to accept the return/refund.
