MUJI Stapleless Stapler

The first product I will review is the MUJI brand stapleless stapler. MUJI is a huge company in Japan that produces home goods, food, clothing, and other such products. However, their stationery section is one of their main revenue generators, and it's no surprise given the quality and creativity of their products. The MUJI stapless stapler, shown here in white, is an innovative stapler that uses NO STAPLES. Yes, that is correct, NO STAPLES. With its proprietary function, the stapler punches a hole between the sheets that allow the papers to bind together seamlessly through an innovative folding technique. The suggested number of sheets is about 5 so this won't be good for heavy duty stapling. But if you need to staple a couple of sheets or a bunch of 2-5 page copies, this would work perfectly.

Zojirushi Series

My next set of posts will be on the Zojirushi series consumer electronic goods products, particularly for the kitchen. Zojirushi is the undisputed king of consumer goods here in Japan. Its penetration is growing throughout the world and is evidenced by its products being used everywhere I travel, whether throughout Asia or across the U.S. A little background about Zojirushi: is a Japanese manufacturer of consumer electronic goods including rice cookers, bread machines, electric water boilers, refrigerators, flasks and much more. The company was founded in 1918 as the Ichikawa Brothers Trading Company in Osaka and in 1948 was changed to Kyowa Manufacturing Co., Ltd. In 1961, its name was changed again to the Zojirushi Corporation and its corporate logo, including an elephant ( Zōjirushi means "elephant mark") was adopted. You can find their products in every major electronic store in Japan, including Bic Camera, Yodobashi Camera, LABI, etc. It would not be w...
