Good product
works well, last one I bought which is a bundle product, stops working in just few weeks. Since this is a standalone product, I expect this to work well and last.

I haven't had to use the nailer, yet. I know Dewalt has a good reputation and I am very pleased with my other Dewalt tools. I expect the same with the nailer. The price made it a good deal.

Dewalt always makes quality products and this is no exception. I just wish it would also handle 16 gauge braids.

Perfect right out of the box. Arrived quick and so far fired off 500 + 2” and 5/8 inch brads w/o a jam or misfire. Great price if you don’t want to spend the $$ on a battery one. I have a compressor set up so no time at all to get er done!

Maximum power with minimum noise. Quickly and efficiently punches in nails without misfire at 80-100 psi. Purchased a pancake style mini-compressor and hose to power the tool. Huge improvement over electric or battery powered mailers which regularly jam and misfire.

What a tremendous, little Brad-Nailer. Shot about 1,500 brads with it in the 1st 2-days, and it never missed a beat. This thing is fantastic, especially for the price.

Works fine for what I need. I just do little hobbies so this tool handles what I need just great. The carrying case is great also to use to protect it while in storage and to take around with you.

Used this to put up trim in my family room. Gotta say leave a nice small countersink, I tried a combo stapler Brad nailer and had to take it back… left gashes in the wood. This dewalt worked perfect! No need for oil either!

Durable, Reliable, Easy to Use
I purchased this particular brad nailer as a gift for my oldest son, however I have owned one for more than 10 years. It is one of the most useful tools in my armamentarium. It is light weight, easy to use, and reliable. I have never experienced a jam with this nailer. I recommend purchasing an option that includes the case. Also, I almost always use between 60 PSI (softer woods) and 80PSI (for harder woods), and try to avoid using anything higher than 80PSI.

Excellent! Very precise nailing. Nailer a little bit on the large size. Would prefer it to be smaller.

      The nailer was easy to assemble and easy to use. It made the job so much faster, now that I have used it. I will use it for every project that I do now. It was worth the money

        I've only used the nailer a couple of times and it performed perfectly as I expected. Would expect nothing less from a DeWalt tool.
