I’ve had this nailer for about about 6 months now and use it lightly to moderately. I have multiple Porter Cable tools and they have all been very dependable. This nailer seems equally well built and reliable. I would like like it more if it were an angle nailer though. I would put this on the list of best tools purchases I’ve made. Easy to use and works well with pancake compressor.

The kit doesn’t come with sample nails as stated, other than that, it’s been good so far

Works well, gets what i need done.

Does what it’s supposed to do. It drives 16 gauge trim nails. It will not fire blanks, like the Hitachi/Mutalbo does.

Very easy to use right out of the box. Had one nail jam but it was easy to get it out and resume the work.

Have to get used to it compared to my last one, which was about 12 years old. Liked the loading style on the old one better.

Had one for a good while and got alot of use out of it so went bought another one

Bought to build a cabinet. Pros – good price, doesn’t need oil so you just need a basic compressor setup, works out of the box, comes with carrying case. Cons – shoe (tip) is bulky and makes it difficult to tell exactly where the brad will hit, so I did have a couple of nails miss. Bought it for light, periodic use. Perfect for that.

I had one previously so it was exactly what I needed
Marley Morissette (verified owner) –
Got exactly what I wanted for the price. Should have invested in one sooner. No jams in over 100+ nails shot on my first project, SHIPLAP! A couple misfires, but I also had the penetration depth set too low initially. I would recommend setting it all the way to the flush side.
Veronica Leffler (verified owner) –
Works as advertised. Like that this one has a trigger lock to prevent accidental firing of nails when left attended and someone else picks it up.
