The toughest job it's had so far is actually tacking down the cardboard target backer to the wood frame. With this one feeling very cheap in comparison to the old metal one, I was wondering if it would have the oomph. It handled 4mm thick cardboard and basic pine well. 8 shots around and the staple was as tight down to the wood as it could be. Actually forgot it the one day as I was switching range bags and had to use tape, so with it at 9.99 again, was a no brainer to pick up another one.
I also have the Arrow T50HS which is $16.50 on Amazon. [amazon.com] I have that one as well, and it's kind of the baby of the old and new powershot. A little mix of metal and plastic. Feels a little more heavy duty. Just haven't had a chance to put either to any heavy duty use. No projects for them at the moment. Feel like they'd both do fine for upholstery and similar projects.
One plus for the arrow though. It will do 5/8" Brad nails in addition to staples.
It does take the full size HD staples. Its also lighter than others and requires less pressure to actuate the staples. But is not as strong as the more heavy and harder to actuate staplers.
I used it for installing insulation and it worked fine for that.
Great middle road between the heavy duty staplers and lighter/weaker ones.

I mean, for the money, this can't be beat- the reverse handle really is easier to control. I just wish they kept the brad nailer option- it was great for doing trim!
