Worked well for 500 sq feet of hardwood flooring. No problems.

I only laid about 100 sq. ft. of bamboo flooring but this worked like a champ and cost me less than renting the tool for two days. I have more flooring in my future so I expect to get my money’s worth from this nailer.
Jairo Steuber (verified owner) –
Did 800 sq/ft with no problem. Worth ever penny. Beats renting the tool.

I used this nailer to lay 3/4 inch oak hardwood floor in a small bedroom. It ran well and jammed up just once. Be sure to use the included oil. Well worth the price.

Needed a nailer for 3/4 hardwood floor. Checked all the big box stores and Harbor freight too. Never heard of Freeman Tools but took a chance. Arrived fast. Easy to assemble, instructions straight forward. It is a little heavy. My hardwood is very dense Acacia but nailer worked great at 90 lb pressure on compressor. Great hammer that came with it. Did jam twice on 550 sq ft of flooring but that was due to me not striking nailer hard enough. Easy to clear jam by removing 3 screws. No storage case but good value over all.

I have installed hardwood in 3 bedrooms since owning this nailer. There has been no issues and I have been very impressed with the nailer up to this point. Great nail gun for a DIY kind of person.

The product works as expected but you must be careful as it will scuff/scratch the floor if you don’t treat the whole operation with kid gloves.

This flooring nailer is a great deal for the price. I laid over 260 feet of flooring with only one jam but keep in mind I used it putting down Acacia. To give an idea of acacias hardness, Hickory wood is 1740 on the hardness scale and acacia is 2300 on the hardness scale. If you are a do it yourselfer this is a great tool. Just remember that it will only fit so close to the wall because of it size as with any flooring nailer. I had to do the last three courses by hand and finishing nail just an fyi. If it wasn’t for the one jam I would have rated it as a five star.

I purchased this Flooring Nailer to install approximately 500 sq. ft. of pre-finished 3/4″ solid oak flooring in 3 different rooms. This is the first time I have attempted to install hard wood flooring and so far so good. I have the first room completed (about 100 sq. ft.) and have only had one jam up which was my own fault, I was too close to a wall which caused me to miss hit the trigger with the mallet. I followed the directions on how to clear a jam up and was back to work in a few minutes.So far this appears to be a good quality purchase for me.
