Little too big still

Couldn’t believe how well this worked

Works great for my use as a hand held body hammer. Drives nails no problem. It is a little on the big side but it absorbs the impat on my hand and much quieter then the air powered versions

Love it amazed how much power is produced by this palm nailer. Was impressed the first time I used it looking forward to many home projects.

I bought this about 8 months ago and it’s a great tool when you need to get a nail in a spot that a hammer nor a nail gun can fit. It has saved my butt several times! One time the inspector asked for hurricane nailing straps between the 1st & second story AFTER the framing inspection was passed and during the plumbing inspection weeks later. There was already a boxed in chase in the way as well as pipes. This was the only tool that could do the job as there was no room for a hammer or even a palm air nailer with its hose. This tool got the job done! I thought I was going to have to take all the drain lines out! Other times I’ve used it to put up 3/4″-1 1/2 hangers for PEX plumbing and large 100 amp 2 ga electrical wires when running an electrical sub panel thru old work. Nailing hangers between 12″ OC floor joists is a snap with this nailer especially in old work where the wood is rock hard! Overall great tool and life saver!

ordered this tool thinking it would be a good addition to all my other milwaukee nailers. it was a little bulkier than I anticipated when I opened it…but it is amazing. drives nailed as fast as my bostitch, ridgid, and Spence pneumatic nailers but is way quieter. USER NOTE…don’t press the trigger and then apply pressure to the nail… it will bounce irregularly. push on the nail and THEN push the trigger and it dries es any nail perfect. no air hose… I would never go back.

Too big and heavy to maneuver and uncomfortable but gets the job done

I remember the day when I bought my brand new, just-hit-the-market, Black & Decker electric screwdriver when I was in my 20s. My life and my toolbox were never the same again. The Milwaukee Palm Nailer is the first tool in 30 years to recreate that same experience once again. Remarkable.

Excellent performance was expected from Milwaukee. However, the palm hammer is a bit bulky and will not fit in small areas; defeats the purpose of a palm nailer.

Was great nailing floor joist hangers

The palm nailer has nice power and can easily pound in the nails I am using.
Danielle Stehr (verified owner) –
It’s super convenient when you need to get in those tight spaces and you don’t have to drag around an air hose! seems to have plenty of power for all size nails and battery life will let you pound many nails before a recharge!

It’s great for nailing in small places.
Dustin Padberg (verified owner) –
This palm nailer is very under rated! I took a 3in screw to test it with because I didn’t have a nail at the time, it put in the wood pole like a hot knife though butter!I highly recommend it!

the m12 palm nailer surpassed my expectations. It is fairly compact and very powerful. I use it for strapping pex tubing in attics. Swinging a hammer is frustrating in attics. But no more.

I am a frame and finish carpenter, while I would have loved it if this tool could hold a wider array of nails it comes in very handy for tight spots when framing, also when using it with the 3.0ah battery it is easy to handle, and great for hitting great angles, surprisingly powerful for its size, as it stamps into processed, and hard woods..

I bought this took to help me install windows and avoid hitting the fiberglass frame with a traditional hammer. This tool feels like I’m cheating. Only four stars because I feel like they could have added a speed control function. Very good tool.

Definitely made my job a lot easier

It comes in handy when you need it!! Kinda bulky…. noisy! Also… the switch is only on one side which made it hard for me since I’m left handed!!
