Bostich makes quality stuff. It works well, lasts forever, and is reliable. They also make good fasteners...brads, NC staples, finish nails, etc.

Some of their smaller staplers also have a nice feature which prevents the crazy folks in the shop from free-firing the nailers - it encloses the pressure engagement mechanism inside a plastic cover so that you can't pull back the pressure engagement lever and fire it, it must be pressed against material to be fired. Basically, no stapler-fights in the shop. (I've heard this called "the paintball of the scene shop").
