To be honest I did NOT expect to write a good review. I used it for about 8 months to finish our house to put up for sale, hung moldings on it, did some floor and carpet work and installed transition pieces with it. I'm really surprised, I had no problems with it. The safety lever on the front is a bit long and the air vent is in an awkward position when applying hand pressure. BUT it's so damn cheap I don't care if you're a DIY enthusiast or want a few tools for the first time then you'd be crazy not to buy this!
