Customer Reviews
- It worked greatI purchased this to lay a Brazilian Teak floor in my kitchen. I was most impressed with the quality of the nailer when I took it out of the box. But what is more, It worked flawlessly and made my job a breeze. It is a great value.
- Pricey, but works great with a few notesI have no idea why 18ga nailers are more expensive than 16ga nailers, but this is one of the lower cost models. I purchased to install 1000 square feet of engineered flooring. Shot 1000 nails (so far -- not complete) and not a single jam.
The two minor issues that I have are that: 1) it is very difficult to tell when you are out of cleats. Painting the pull tab on the spring load mechanism orange or red would increase the visibility. More than once, I shot a few boards with blanks! 2) The "foot" has a habit of riding up the board and you'll fire into the board if you're not careful. This could have been solved by adding a small tab or lip of some sort that would go under the tongue so that once you're at the right position, there is no chance of it riding up over the tongue and onto the board. I had three occurrences where I nailed onto the face of the board because it rode up the tongue.
Other than that, a great tool for the price. One tip: keep one foot on the back of the tool when you reposition for the next cleat; this way, you can prevent it from riding up the board and accidentally nailing on the face.
