> 3 dayI would deem the 2-hole punch useful. Its small enough to place on top of my desk and its sturdy. My only complaint, it should have a 35-40 sheet capacity. Other than that, Im satisfied with this item.

> 3 dayI was doubtful that this hole punch would punch 20 sheets of paper as the manufacturer claims, but I can now verify that it really does! I put it to the test with regular computer paper, heavier paper, and some pretty thick cardstock and this little gadget did well with everything I tried. It punched perfect holes into a stack of twenty sheets of computer paper with no problem at all. The holes were perfect and there was no struggle at all. It also worked very well with the thicker pieces of paper and cardstock, although I did use less sheets at a time for those. The hole punch is very small and lightweight, easy to press, and easy to store. If you need to punch paper with just two holes, Id highly recommend. I personally wish it did three holes, since Id use it more often but it does what it claims to do and does it extrememly well.

> 3 dayI love how small this is and yet the size that I needed. Not your typical large clunky two hole puncher

> 3 dayIve had this for a while now and it does the job as good as the day I received it. It is heavy duty and it accurately does the hole punches right on the money every time.

Greater than one weekMy office needed a two-hole punch, so I figured Id grab this one for free off the Amazon Vine offer, leave it at work, ask my staff how they liked it, and review it, thus saving a little bit out of my office-supply budget. Response from my staff was very favorable, with all three people who tried it saying its sharpness and design made it much easier to use than traditional models -- and also saying that they wanted one. Comparing it myself to the traditional models we have in the office, I could see why: it definitely bites through paper more cleanly and with less effort. It does make a bigger hole than were used to, which makes pages float around in the binder a bit, but so far that hasnt caused any problems. What has caused problems is that instead of saving the cost of a single two-hole punch by getting this item from Amazon, I am now in a position where the only way to keep peace in the office is to buy one of these for each of the other two folks who want one. So much for my brilliant budget-saving idea!

Greater than one weekBostitch Office EZ Squeeze is an attractive two hole punch that will look good on a desk. It definitely is easy to punch through a stack of papers with very little effort. It has a nice weight to it, so it shouldnt slide around very much. Its mostly made of metal, a rare occurance nowadays. Being able to lock the handle down is a very nice feature, it could prevent someone from accidentally hitting it and knocking the punch to the floor. There is a small pin that you slide to the left to lock the handle down while you depress the handle or slide to the right at you depress the handle, a very useful feature. There are two small, round rubber feet at the rear that probably wont grip very well, from the looks and feel of them. Unfortunately, it has several negative features. 1. There are no instructions with it, so hopefully, my review will help those who arent at least a little mechanically inclined. 2. The slide for adjusting the paper widths (8.5 and 11 inches) isnt very sturdy and can be pulled completely out with the possiblity of losing the adjustment slide. If the punch falls to the floor with the adjustment slide out, the slide could be broken. There are two detents as you pull the slide out, one for 8.5 inches and one for 11 inches, just pull the slide out until you feel the detent for the size paper you are punching. 3. The chip tray locks on the body very nicely and it a bit difficult to open if you have weak or arthritic hands. The chip tray has a plastic hinge that probably wouldnt last long if the tray is emptied often. I dont know if the tray will stay attached once the hinge breaks, after one use I can see stress marks in the hinge. Just be careful to only lower the chip tray a little to dump the chips so you dont put added stress on the plastic hinge. The two hole punch does the job but I still have the above concerns and dont find it to be as rugged as older Bostitch products that Ive owned or used.

> 3 dayWe had two other hole punchers in the office. Both of them are crap despite being larger and more expensive than this one. It has a small footprint but it crunches through 20 pages with hardly any effort at all, and we get perfectly cut circles. If you need a 2 hole punch, get this one.
