The WEN 18 Gauge Pneumatic Stapler is an impressive tool that will make all your stapling projects a breeze. Thanks to my knowledge gained in practice, I have been able to appreciate the quality of this product. The model requires minimal effort and is precise, making it ideal for high volume stapling jobs. It is lightweight, and the ergonomic design guarantees long-term comfort. The only downside to this tool is its air consumption rate when used for continuous stapling operations.
Drives in nails and staples easily, but using stud nails leaves an extra hole the right side of the nail where the clip would be if you were using braces and looking bad. Therefore I would not recommend pin nails for finishing.
Because this is a combo, it leaves two holes, which looks pretty bad. The dial spins freely and won't stay in place, the clip is difficult to close but may work better with clamps (I haven't tried). It also turned the nail into a pretzel every now and then. I replaced it with a much more expensive brand and am glad I did.
Pros
Handy nose latch lets you quickly and easily remove stuck fasteners
