Rack-A-Tiers Staple Shark - Multi-Purpose Staple Puller, Electrical Staple Remover, Construction Staple Remover, Wire Staple Remover (one Pack)(52455)

My home is a 1960s with 3/4 inch solid oak flooring. Ugh . . . with wall to wall carpeting. I swear the staples must have been free for the installer. Sooooo many used! Some of the staples and literally were even with the floor. I tried other staple removers which did not work! THIS ONE IS A HOME RUN! GREAT FOR REMOVING TACK STRIPPING, STAPLES AND NAILS. Worth every penny. I rate this a 10 out of 10.

Pulls staples in tight spots and does so much more. Wasn’t expecting much for the price, but I am pleasantly surprised!

When I started my electrical apprenticeship years ago, I remember my journeyman getting to use one of these for a job and raved about how amazing it was. So I kept my eye on this little doo-dad for a few years. Now that I run a lot of remodel work, I run into many many old staples. From old steel staples to the plastic romex staples that have seem some age. For old steel staples, whether it be in a 100+ year old house to current times, the right amount of leverage will get it out with little problem. Beats using your diagonals to pry and bang out. Cuts time in more than half sometimes. Also works great for reaching into a box opening and popping some old staples just to get a few more inches of wire into your new box. Or even into a tight floor joist space. Shiny or rusty, this gets them out.I also found that the pry bar has it's uses. When removing plastic staples, the hook end has the tendency to rip right through the plastic, or if I'm lucky just barely pops the staple out. Flip to the pry bar end, get under that staple and finish it off! As many others have said, the steel seems cheap and flimsy. And I agree. Therefore, I treat it gently and don't over abuse it. That's what my cat's paw or heavy duty pry bars are for. This is more like my Dasco trim bar, but maybe even lighter duty. So light use only, such as staples or helping pry off a chunk of drywall that you just cut.Product does seem overpriced, seeing a trim bar set costs less than one of these. I get it, proprietary most likely patented design. Still a tad high. Yet the frustration it saves me on the job does seem to be worth the cost when I can fly through demo in no time. Get it if you want to save time and knuckles if you're removing lots of old wire and rewiring. Just be gentle with it and love it long time and it'll treat you well.

You never know you need this until you have it. This is the way of removing staples, etc. when renvoating electrical work.

Worked well to pull electrical staples from joists. Also was handy to have the pry bar on the end.

If you are a residential electrician and you don’t have this tool you are greatly missing out!Absolutely awesome for pulling staples. Holds staples as advertised and also very nice to have a pry bar!

Worked perfect I was able to remove those staples with ease and saved me a ton of time!

Pulls staples easily. The other end is a light duty pry bar.
