Can you use this stapler on leather upholstery?

Yes you can. It can be used on about any type of material, as long as you use the right length staple.

I would think so, however, here's bad news. I bought this stapler and thought it was fabulous. And, it was, for about one hour. I sent it back for a full refund. In all fairness, I think it had been manhandled during shipping. Because it was in a hard case, it was not packed with buffering foam, etc. So, it worked great but for about one hour!

I do not see why not. I used it to lay carpet down in our RV. Worked like a champ :) Also used it to lay down some carpet on my step in the doggy room. I only add this to show mine has lasted longer then an hour. :)

No. I use it on my Staples cross-shredder, alternately with shredder sheets. Everything has been working well for several years now.

I dunno, try it on a small section. I have used it primarily on motorcycle leathers & boots.

This is a great tool. I used it for putting on hundreds of planks for a fence. That said, in my opinion, I don't think it would be good for reupholstering. I would look for something with a wider staple. This one is very narrow.

I use it on everything. I don't know what type S upholstery is but this product has no soap so therefore does not attract dirt. Follow the directions to blot not rub and you should be o.k.

It would be hard to use this on leather. This is more for paper. They sell leather punches on Amazon. (I bought one)

The round top staples are quite good at holding wood to wood, but since they sit slightly below the surface, might not be ideal for upholstery fabrics, which I would think need a square topped staple.

I have used it on the vinyl upholstery on my pontoon and it worked better than anything else I have tried. I rinsed well with buckets of water and it was fine. Not sure about leather.

no. doesn't work with leather. I work with leather and this machine doesn't feed it through very well.

i would try a spot to see but if it works on leather handbags it should work on leather books.

I used it to re-upholster 8 chair seats. it did not jam or fire multiple staples. I used 1/2 inch and 9/16 inch staples. I also put a couple of drops of oil into the air line from time to time.

NO - it uses standard staples. Sounds like you need a heavy duty stapler......

I would definitely say no to this one! I tried using this stapler to install a new convertible top, and it would barely drive 1/4" staples through the canvas. So I then tried using it on some wood trim molding with the suggested brad nails and it just did not do the job. I've always had good luck with Stanley tools up until now. If you have a lot to replace you might want to look into an air stapler or perhaps an electric screw gun. I hope this helps some.

Aleene's Leather glue works great on leather belts that have separated down the center. It is flexible when dry. I'm not sure how it would work on a chair since the patch would have to bear weight. I don't know how strong it is, but at $5, it's worth a try.

Should work fine.... a great occasional homeowner stapler. Staples will be best for your application. Galvanized will stain in time. Stainless steel better.

I used this stapler not only for wood, but also for laminate (LDF, MDF) and drywalls. Maybe there are some very hard woods, which it cannot cope, but I don't know any.

No, you use it to stiffen the fabric, especially around the corners (like in a chair) and then it is stapled.
