meite Hand Picture Frame Tool with 1000 Points, Point Drivers for Picture Framing, Lightweight Frame Point Driver, Picture Frame Stapler/Nailer Manual Picture Framing Tools for Picture Framing (HM515)

A great buy works a treat and easy to use price was reasonable nothing not to like with this particular purchase #very happy

For years I've struggled to reframe pictures, especially getting the backing panel securely fixed. This staple gun is easy to use and effective. You need to take a little care when using but I've managed fine so far. A good product and decent value for money.

Works ok until now. No malfunctions

This tool arrives very nicely protected in a branded Meite cardboard box alongside a little package of ‘free’ flexible/bendable points on five strips to get you started. Which is plenty and genuinely what I’d consider to be a lifetime supply unless you’re making or repairing a lot of frames. The box also contains a few pieces of paper with an exploded diagram of the stapler’s various parts, a letter of conformity for some reason and a set of nicely written instructions with colour photographs outlining the setup and use of the tool.The product description mentions that the stapler holds around a hundred pieces in its magazine, which makes me feel like the claim of the stapler coming with 1000 points is a little misleading then. If the stapler holds a hundred pieces and takes almost an entire strip (one of five provided) to fill, surely the actual number is closer to 500 or 600 at most? Maybe the stapler itself holds more than a hundred pieces, I didn’t personally count it out but either way it's a little muddy whether you’re getting 1000 pieces with the stapler or if it simply holds more than advertised.The stapler is very nicely made, and it doesn’t take a huge amount of effort to adjust, load, unload and use it on picture frames. I took a bunch of the points out of the supplied box and had them loaded and driven into a random picture frame within a minute or two without looking at the provided instructions. It’s easy to adjust the depth/strength of the stapler, and it hasn’t jammed or caused me any issues on several dozen test uses on some frames that needed new flexible points and a spare piece of timber.This is one of those very specific tools that makes you have that epiphany moment where you’re like ‘well of course that’s actually a thing I can buy/own’. Before this popped up I honestly hadn’t even considered the possibility that I could get a specific stapler for driving bendable tabs/points into wood for self-made frames or repairing existing ones that have broken points from too much use.The £35.99 price at the time of writing is in the ballpark for similar point drivers from other vendors. I’m pleased with how well it works and other than the bit of confusion around the capacity or number of provided points I really can’t fault the stapler itself.

Bought this one as had send one from a different vendor back. This one is great! Easy to hold, logical to load. Strong propulsion. Well packed and packaged. Worth the extra few pounds.

Used it this weekend, easy to use, feels well made and definitely did the job

I had to break the nail strip in half in order to fit it into the loading chamber but apart from that it works well.

Excellent build quality. Does the job perfectly.
