When I tried this 4-inch and 2-inch 18 gauge power tool, I was immediately struck by its power-to-size ratio. This little guy is incredibly versatile and can handle a variety of tasks with ease, from cutting metal to trimming a piece of wood. It's lightweight and easy to handle, making it perfect for both professional and DIY use. The only downside is that it can be a bit noisy, but that's a small price to pay for such great performance.
Pros
Durable construction with 18 gauge steel
Cons
Not as versatile as other nailers due to limited nail length options
Pneumatic nailer I use Metabo for sure. The lower end of the 18 gauge I had was garbage. I bought this, now I use 3 plus everything. Cheap and easy to use. I finish carpentry so that they become accustomed and abused. Not a single problem with them for months. Do not seriously spend money on brands. They might be missing some features, but for nailing it works.
Pros
Lightweight composite plastic magazine weighs 1/3 less than standard aluminum
I searched quite a few websites before finally purchasing this nailer. Probably the best I've found for the price. Some people prefer the smaller 16 gauge nailers, but all the nailing I did with this 18 gauge nailer isn't even noticeable. Also, I liked that it went up to 2 inch long nails. In terms of ease of use, I reviewed this product with my 13 year old daughter and she had no issues with it. I held the board in place and it pounded nails without fear. It was a great father-daughter…
Pros
Tool-less adjustable driving depth for stable and controlled nailing
