Great brad gun so far! Good feel, great features, and not a jam yet. Does not flake MDF and doesn't mark real wood. Well built for the price. Will definitely be looking at Makita's other nailers in the future.

Did not work as described. There were a number of misfires where the brad did not come out and the trigger did not work. I called Makita and they told me only a certain brand of brads which Home Depot does not sell will work (well) and Grip Rite is not one of them. They also told me the unit could be defective. Since the specific brads are not mentioned in any Makita support materials and Home Depot does not sell them, I returned this for a refund.
