One Hand Easy Use Punch
The Bostitch EZ Squeeze 40 3-Hole Punch (HP40) that I got from the Spark Reviewer program met my expectations completely. Being a heavy-duty 3-hole punch it’s a little larger than the light-duty type that I normally use, but the extra size makes it extra hard working. It easily plunges holes in anything up to 40 pages thick with minimal effort, and the guide makes it easy to line up perfectly. The locking mechanism keeps it from taking up too much room. There were no instructions in the box and it IS pretty self-explanatory as far as punching holes, and the lock feature was easy to figure out, but I was afraid I might break the cleaning tray, which is plastic, if I opened it wrong. I found a video on the Bostitch website that showed how to do it and it also is very easy, but I do feel like it might be easy to break. I’m sure it can still be used without the tray, but it might be messy! The rest of the punch is metal and excellent quality. I feel like it can be used pretty aggressively.

Heavy Duty but bottom grips may be lacking.
This is a heavy duty hole puncher. It's made of metal and has rubber grips on the handle, which is great. It has 4 small corner rubber grips on the bottom of the base. This is a little lacking. The WHOLE base should be coated in rubber. It is plastic and may slide around a bit if you're whole punching and using some force. This may cause misaligned holes. It has a lock-pin to keep it closed, so it's more compact when not in use. It works really well, has a very strong spring and sharp metal pins to puncture the paper. It DOES punch 40 sheets, but not with ease. You really have to force it. I would suggest doing 30 sheets or less at a time. To empty the scraps out, you have to pull down the right side flap and shake them out. I personally prefer when the whole bottom base plate comes off so I can effectively get any scraps that may be stuck, but that's just my preference. If I ever get a paper punch jam, it may be difficult to clear the jam--and I just might have to pry off the bottom. It almost looks like you could take a flat-head screwdriver to the slots around the perimeter to get it off. It's a great hole puncher but is lacking in the rubber grip on the base. I'm docking a star for this.

    Heavy duty, does multiple papers with ease
    This is an excellent heavy duty stapler. It is made of quality materials. It's sturdy and doesn't tip or flip when you are using it. It will easily punch through 40 pages at once. It is easy to empty this out with the little pouch on the bottom. This is the best hole punch I have seen on the market in a very long time. This is well made and should last for many years. I am really happy to have this for my home office, and also to work on my kids school organization and projects. This is going to be an excellent tool for our entire family's paperwork.

    Makes my life easy.
    No more of single handedly punching holes with a single hole punch for me. This works great for making my binders. It punches holes thru about 40 pages of paper with ease. I have had no issues with this hole punch every thing that I have tried to use with this I have no issues. Seems to be made of decent materials and should hold up over time. I am pleased with this product.

    Great 3 Hole Punch
    This review is for the Bostitch EZ Squeeze 40 Sheet 3-Hole Punch (HP40). I absolutely goes through 40 sheets with ease with its EZ Squeeze Technology. Clean punches. All metal design. Built in paper guide, and easy to clean chip tray. Lock down handle for easy storage. I have used many 3 hole punches before. I have never used one this good! I barely had to apply additional force to get it to go through 40 sheets. I highly recommend to all!

    Easy to use an well made.
    The Bostitch EZ Squeeze 40 Sheet 3-Hole Punch gets the job done. I haven't had a really good hole puncher in years, especially one that could hole punch 40 sheets at a time. I had to unlock the Bostitch EZ Squeeze 40 Sheet 3-Hole Punch by pulling the pin on the side after that it was ready for use. I like to print out various quotes, workout routines and recipes and place them in binders. Using the hole punch makes it so easy to do. I had no problem getting the sheets of paper in the hole puncher or using it to make the holes. It cut through each sheet evenly an the little pieces of paper were collected in the tray, that was easy to open for cleaning after each use.

    Easy to use
    On the behalf of spark reviewer I received the bostitch EZ squeeze 3-hole puncher. I really needed a new hole puncher for my office, my old one was falling apart. The bostitch EZ squeeze hole-puncher can punch through 40 sheets of paper at a time. It collects all the pieces of paper at the bottom. I don’t ever have a mess to clean up after using this hole puncher wit h is great. I hated having to pick up all those little pieces of paper after hole punching them. There is a rubber top part so it’s Easter to press down which hole punching. I also love that there is a lock on this hole-puncher. Overall a great thing to have in your office or home.

    Better Than I Expected!!
    I am reviewing the EZ Squeeze 40 Sheet 3-Hole Punch (HP40). I received this product for free in exchange for my unbiased opinion of it. I selected this product because I have decided it would be nice to start printing photos my children and grandchildren do not have copies of. Also, to make a couple notebooks containing family recipes that they may also enjoy having years from now. I was really surprised at the great quality of this hole punch. It is really heavy, to the point of office grade sturdy. It is so easy to use, with minimal pressure needed. I was amazed at how easy it was to push the wide lever down. I also enjoy the fact that it can cut through so many sheets of paper at one time, which means all my pages in the notebooks will actually be even on the edges and so less likely to fray with use. I am truly glad I selected it. I never expected it to have such a sleek design and such wonderful quality. It is even nicer than the one I used when I did office work.

    Heavy duty
    This is the heaviest hole punch I have ever used. It claims to hole punch 40 sheets and I have not needed to hold punch 40 sheets but I have done 10 easily. I like the way you line up the paper and the ease of pushing down the lever. I have used old hole punches without the handle assist and my last hole punch with a handle assist. I have hever used this type which is very big and heavy but I really like how easy whole punching is with it. I am very happy to be using this type now.

    Heavy Duty
    This really is a heavy duty hole puncher. It is not lightweight and feels substantial. I was actually able to punch through 40 plus pages, at once, with one being an outer cover that was a little thicker. It did take a little more effort but, all in all, the item does what it says and works well. It will be very useful in my home office.
