This is worth its weight in gold, I needed to repair my inlaws fron clip as it was torn out after a parking failure. It worked as advertised, the three settings for heat are perfect for the different gauge staples and the 3 different mounting holes were the only way I was able to put staples in some of the tighter spots. The case it comes with is perfect for storing the equipment and oher accessories I have now purchased to smooth out the welds for a neater job. My only criticisim is that the tabs on the staples do not snap off easially and the supplied cutters are not flush cut, so I need a dremmil to grind away the exposed nibs.
