Pneumatic 16-Gauge 2-1/2 in. Nailer Kit is rated 4.1 out of 5 by 148.

Pros - good price, doesn't need oil so you just need a basic compressor setup, works out of the box, comes with carrying case. Cons - shoe (tip) is bulky and makes it difficult to tell exactly where the brad will hit, so I did have a couple of nails miss. Bought it for light, periodic use. Perfect for that.

I have only had the nailer for a few days but have already "fired" approximately 500 nails with it putting wood on a large feature wall. Major decision point was the price compared to other similar nailers. Product meets all my expectations.

The first one worked great. I probably shot a 1000 or so nails out of it. However, the other day I went to use it and it would not shoot. I do not know why. So I'm trying a Porter Cable again. Hope it keeps working.

No jams in over 100+ nails shot on my first project, SHIPLAP! A couple misfires, but I also had the penetration depth set too low initially. I would recommend setting it all the way to the flush side.

It has a plastic nail slide and a drop from a stepstool has the potential of shattering. Also, the plastic storage case unlike previous models has no space for nails or tool oil.
