Review on Capri Tools 21072 5-in Air Blow Gun with Rubber Tip, Blue: The Perfect Tool for Quick and Precise Cleaning! by Doug Virden

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good air sock at a good price.

It's not perfect but it's good and I don't regret buying it yet. The rubber tip on the end is very comfortable and well designed, I've dropped it a few times and it seems to be holding up well. I noticed that the air intake is glued on, but it seems tight and the glue seems well applied so it's likely to hold and not leak. The only real "complaint" I have is that the trigger has a lot of travel compared to my other cheap air vents I've used. It would be nice if that extra reach gave me more control over air pressure, but after about halfway there doesn't seem to be any difference in air volume or air pressure, I also have a carpal tunnel so if I'm using this on a project over a longer one period, you must use the air repeatedly in short bursts, or try to control the airflow over longer periods of time. The additional movement of the handle combined with the resistance of the handle causes pain in the wrists. Despite that, I'm still happy with it and glad I bought it. I will buy a better air nozzle at a higher price for long term use and better air control for more demanding projects and this will be my all purpose nozzle. and for that purpose it's a good buy! I definitely like it better than other cheap air atomizers I've used. That rubber tip makes this nozzle really good! It leaves no marks on the surface and has a good design. very helpful.
