[3 Stars]: Good product at this price.
I've completed a room so far with this nailer and have had a few problems. First the spring mechanism to hold the nails tight into the drive position is a joke. It broke after about 150 nails and didn't keep the nails tight. After a while you get used to tapping the plastic piece to drive the next nail into position to use.
The second problem I've had is that it seems to jam rather easily. But after the second and last time it happened I haven't had the problem. It may be that the head wasn't properly tightened and allowed a second nail to protude into the channel in front of the ram.
The third problem is the cap on the ram comes off too easily and is not easily put back on.
It is a very solidly built tool and I expect it will last me well past this total project of 3 rooms and a hallway. But I do wish I had shopped around a little longer and found the refurbished nailers and tried one of them. Since I don't do this for a living any one of them probably would have lasted me through this project.
[5 Stars]: Porta Nailer 402P
Great product. Highest quality, easy to use, use it to install a bamboo floor in my kitchen. If you consider buying iy be aware that there are different "shoes" for different types of flooring. You can save money buyimg the model with the type of shoe or shoes for the type of flooring you wish to install. Get the one with the face nailing shoe, hardwod shoe and bamboo (metric) shoe to save a little money.
[5 Stars]: Very Happy
I am very happy with this nailer. I used it to lay approximately 800 square feet of maple flooring. It NEVER had a single jam, or problem. I am very happy I used this nailer.
