GBCBinding System, Manual, Desktop Binding Punch, 6 Sheet Punch Capacity, ProClick P50 (2515650)

Works very well, easy to use. Feels durable. Was able to bind the curriculum I bought very quickly. Everything lined up perfect! Would definitely recommend. I used this with the GBC ProClick Spines.

I absolutely love this thing! I do think it is overpriced but at the same time, it seems there is nothing else like this out there. Honestly, it's a glorified hole puncher but it works very well. Heavy duty and seems like it will last a long time. It punches accurately everytime, it's lightweight and easy to store. As a homeschool mom, I am very happy to have this in my home.

The media could not be loaded. I homeschool, so end up printing a fair amount of material for my kids. This is a million times better than 3 ring, comb, or spiral binding options. With 3 ring options, the binders get broken, the rings won't match up, and there aren't enough holes so the pages get ripped out. With comb and spiral binding, the pages are secure, but it is very difficult to add or remove pages. This system is the best of both worlds. Lots of holes so the pages don't rip and they turn easily, but the binding opens and closes easily to add or remove pages. When it's closed, it stays closed, too. I bought this about 2 years ago, but it was broken. I tried to live without it, but just decided it wasn't worth it with so many years left of homeschooling.Technical details:- it can hole punch up to 4 or 5 normal copy paper pages. I use a heavier weight paper, so never punch more than 3 pages at a time.- the binding can usually hold about 50 pages (again, I use thick paper).- it can punch through laminated paper easily

Pros:- It's very well-made, heavy, and feels like it will last forever.- It punches very consistently on the page. Sometimes with a regular 3-hole punch, the holes on multiple pages don't line up exactly right if the paper is not in exactly the same spot every time. I punched a large stack of papers and every single sheet lined up perfectly.- It's long, but not huge, and is very easy to store. It doesn't need a lot of real estate on a shelf and the low profile means it in can slip into tight places. This is also a plus when assembling books and papers and supplies are scattered all over your work surface.- It punched through 8 mil plastic report covers fairly well. Not sure it could handle anything heavier, though.- Because the binders can be reopened, it makes it super easy to add pages when needed. This is a HUGE plus.- Overall, the spines take up less room than a 3-ring binder, are sturdier than wire spiral binding, and allow you to fold the cover 360 degrees around.Cons- It is LOUD. Makes a ton of noise as you slide the lever back and forth.- It can be a little cantankerous at the max number of pages. You do have to hold papers down on the edge of the punch to keep them from sliding out.- Max capacity is 6 pages, but if you use anything other than cheap copy paper, you're probably going to max out at 4 pages or so. Cardstock is a single sheet. This makes punching a large document a little slow.- It's awfully expensive.Overall, I think it is well worth the investment, even if I did wince when pressing "pay." I don't anticipate needing to replace it anytime soon, and I am very pleased with the results.

Smooth slide - works great

I love this product! Easy to use. I have not had any issues with it yet.

I use a dot grid bullet journal but if I wanted a printed planner, I would totally use this to make my own. It can be used like a disc planner because the pro click spirals make it easy to open and close like a binder without the bulk.I’m a homeschool mom so I use it a lot for that purpose. Binding our own books with this makes it easy for me to move pages around if needed with our school materials or booklets I print for myself. I also like it’s design so it doesn’t take up so much space and is easy to store.I have only had it for 2 months but it has already gotten a lot of use. It’s holding up well so far!

I purchased my ProClick5 p50 a little over a year ago, and it has been a wonderful tool. I have used it to make a custom planner for myself and many homeschool workbooks for my children. I love, love, love that you can add and remove pages, like a binder, without the bulk and frequent page tearing of a binder.The product is sturdy and well made, but I cannot fathom why it costs so much. When I first started looking at it I believe it cost around $60. When I bought it it was just over $70, and now it's in the $80s, with several places online charging well over $100. It's just a well made hole puncher!I think this product would sell like hotcakes, especially in the homeschool market, if Swingline could price it in the $40s or maybe $50s.
