subject: Reviewing The Dahle Novus B4 Compact Executive Stapler [print this page] A good professional-grade stapler should be in every office and some of the best ones are made by Dahle Novus. One of their products is the B4 Compact Executive Stapler. It is essentially a smaller version of the company's popular B5 stapler as it has all of the great features of that product despite it's diminutive size. Here is a rundown of what the B4 can do, as well as a short discussion of its couple of weaknesses.
Strengths:
* The B4 was designed to be small and indeed it is. Its measurements are 5-3/8" (length) x 1-1/2" (width) x 2-1/2" (depth). It definitely won't take up a lot of room and you can also carry it with you, if necessary.
* Although this device is small, it has a big stapling capacity. It is capable of stapling up to 40 sheets of paper at once and you can do so without a lot of effort. The stapler responds well to gentle pressure to make the stapling experience more comfortable for you.
* This product was designed and manufactured in Germany by Dahle Novus, a company that's famous for their high-quality products. The B4 is another great item from them that has been made to withstand a lot of use over a period of a number of years.
* The B4 is a tri-mode model which means it offers three ways of stapling your documents. It offers standard fastening, tacking (i.e. attaching your paper to a vertical surface such as a bulletin board), and temporary pinning. Temporary pinning will staple your document in such a way that the staple is easy to remove, even by hand. This is a nice alternative to paper clips. Also, switching between these three modes is easy. Turning an anvil on the base of the unit will do the trick.
* This is a front-loading device that's easy to refill. When you run out of staples, just press the red button on the unit and you'll be able to load it up again.
* The B4 works best when you use high-quality Dahle Novus staples with it. The ones you should use are the 24/6 and 24/8 Super staples.
* This product comes with a very good warranty. Dahle Novus will cover the device for up to 10 years.
Weaknesses:
* This is not a flat-clinch stapler that's capable of flattening the staple's legs. While that may not seem like a big deal, documents stapled with a flat-clinch device take up much less room than ones fastened with an ordinary stapler. So keep that in mind if you're looking to save space.
* The B4 is only available in three colors: black, blue, and gray. If you're looking for a compact device in a brighter color, you may want to consider the Swingline Compact Stapler.
The Dahle Novus B4 stapler is a terrific product that's a great choice if your office needs a high-quality document fastener. With its excellent stapling capacity and tri-mode capabilities, this is the product to get when you want professional-grade quality in a small package.
