Review on BOSTITCH FN1664K 16-Gauge Straight Finish Nail Gun by Jeff Bremmer

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Don't buy good for me

I have purchased two of these nailers (along with a compressor and brad nailer in a combination pack). I used it to install doors, trim and baseboard. On both occasions, I followed the manual when it comes to preventive maintainence. In both cases, this nailer's air seal failed within the first several hours of work & the tool became completely unusable. Menard's replaced the unit the first time, and apparently will on the second. It is unfortunate that the craftsmanship of the product is so shotty (spelling error?) as the compressor seems to work well, and is easy to transport.

Pros
  • Nailers
Cons
  • Difficult to remove jammed nails
