I use mine when I do furniture repairs, have never had a problem. The
force of the staple depends on the pressure at the compressor.

I just picked one up on sale. It's an ok little unit. Plenty of power, no
problem sinking 1/2" staples into maple, even at 65psi. Bear in mind there's
no safety, the staples are on the light side at 22ga, and you might have a
hard time trying for find a local supplier of staples (though there's plenty
of mail order sources). The commonly available Porter Cable 22ga staples
look similar but don't work well in the Paslode. I've found the Duofast or
Bostich staples to work well.

Just got one for small jobs around the house - first trial everything was
as expected - has significant force for what I required - I suppose
depending on what you wanted to use it for may dictate how it works for you
