About Bostitch Office 3 Hole Punch, 12 Sheet Capacity
Overall Feedback:
92% positive
85% liked the adjustable punching settings, but 15% found them confusing
The hole punch is built like a tank with an all-metal body except for the rubber base that catches the punched out holes, making it durable and long-lasting.
The hole punch is not adjustable and has no guide for the paper.
89% appreciated the high capacity, but 11% found it limited
This punch is perfect for personal use with a capacity of twelve sheets.
Technically, I can punch 12 pages, but it's difficult. It's tough to press it down, so I prefer to keep it under 10 pages.
90% praised the durable construction
I have found that this hole punch is built like a tank with an all-metal construction except for the rubber base that catches the punched out holes. I believe it will last essentially forever.
The punch can handle many pages at a time and is strong and durable.
89% found it easy to use and maneuver
I like the ease of use of the paper punch. It is sharp and can go through multiple sheets of paper easily.
This hole puncher is easy to use and the papers do not get stuck, making it easy to clean out.
The paper punch has a clean lineup bar, opens easily to clean out the punch dots and punches cleanly with no hanging bits.
It is very easy to remove and replace the bottom piece to dump the paper circles made from the hole punch.

87% appreciated the easy maintenance, but 13% found it tedious
Some people have complained about the lack of a guide to align the paper properly.
My son and I were unsure if removing the plastic would fix the issue, but we decided to try it since we had nothing to lose.
87% praised the clean punch quality, but 13% experienced jamming issues
The rubber bottom piece is well made with a slightly raised lip at one end that aligns papers for proper hole punching. However, it's not very prominent and requires care to avoid misaligning papers.
