                      Very disappointed
                      I've bought two of these thinking i got a bad one the first time as it won't set the nails even with a fresh 4.0 amp hour battery and the depth set as deep as it will go, but the second one is even worse. It won't seat the nails either ( and I've tried several different brands) and it spits out two or three nails at a time all too often. Rigid has some issues to work out with this tool.

                        Died after light use
                        Bought this and it worked mostly fine for three jobs - some double feed and drive depth issues. Next job it crapped out midway through - took apart to fix and the drive was bent and the head had shattered off. How does this happen on 16ga nails? Bulkiness also problematic for tight trim work. Would not recommend.

                          Ridgid 18v 16 Gauge nail gun
                          I purchased the Ridgid 18v 16G nailer about two months ago and used it about 10 times, it's an awesome Nail gun. I'm driving 2" nails into 3/4" trim and drives the nails right in every time. I reduce the drive setting almost to the lowest settings. I'm not sure why there are negative reviews on this gun but I can't find anything to complain about. "Awesome gun". It weights around 12lbs, I'm 61 years old and I used it for about two hours straight and I didn't think it was too heavy.

                            Batteries!
                            It does the job, is slightly heavy. Rubber tip won't stay on unless you use some silicone. Also, when there's about an inch left of the nail clip, you have to add another clip or it may misfire or jam. The batteries just won't stay charged for very long and I have 3 of them that I need to constantly swap out. The finish nailer I have is the angled one, which I don't see on this website, but it's the Ridgid batteries I have an issue with. I also own a Milwaukee battery operated drill, impact and miter saw which have no battery draining issues. I know what I'll buy next time.

                              Great product!
                              I just bought this item today to finish up some trim work and am very impressed. It nailed the 1 inch nails like it was nothing. I am not sure what improvements have been made on this but it kicks butt in 2020! One thing to understand is that there is a switch on the bottom of the tool that can be set to 3/4 and 2.5 inch. I use air nailers and can say that this is just as powerful as the air nailers. If you want to be sure you have plenty of power, use a 5 amp hr battery, not the puny 2 amp hr batteries.
