Review on πŸ”§ WEN 61723K 8 Inch 18 Gauge Portable Carrying by Justin Hollins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It still works. at Power & Hand Tools

I bought the Brad Nailer 61721 because it was so cheap. This is the first power tool I have ever owned. I used Wen on about 150 nails. So it's honeymoon time I guess: PROs: Still working, never had a traffic jam; Depth adjuster works - you should check with a spare to find the correct depth. Cons: The air intake seems to let air through; This is a brand new quick connect I put on it. However, this doesn't appear to cause any performance loss at all. Another downside is that I had to go to Home Depot and literally do the "Quick Connect" stuff. Now that I know, ah! just right? But man I'm struggling to figure out how to connect, yo. SETUP: This is my setup and I have no advantage in naming names. 150 psi Porter & Cable Pancake Compressor ($99); a long air hose I bought at Home Depot; a 4-piece pack of Husky QuickConnect ($6 I think; it was cheaper than buying individual parts); Home Depot Air Tool Oil ($3.49) – Remember, air tool oil, not compressor oil. The Porter supercharger had an air leak completely out of the box; check it before first use. Much luck!
