I bought this stapler last year for college and it always came in handy. My professors didn’t always have a stapler in their classroom, and the ones in the library were often empty, so it was great to have my own just in case. Although it’s a mini stapler, the staples are still the standard size which makes refills super easy! I don’t think this would be the most practical purchase right now, due to remote work/classes, but once everything is in-person again, this is an essential purchase!
