Customer Reviews for Freeman Pneumatic 16-Gauge 2-1/2 in. Straight Finish Nailer

At maximum psi 2” brads will not seat properly into 3/4 oak hardwood flooring. The head sticks out and I have to go back with a punch. Gun is set to max and 1/3 of the time the gun won’t fire. Not pleased at all.

Works as well or better than I had hoped

Work perfectly, my workers love it

Great gun, great price. Tested on a few combinations of different woods. No problem with hard wood pentration after shotting on soft wood with just a minor depth adjustment. Can't tell if jaming is an issue as have not started with the cabinet project yet. Can't compare with pro guns which are 4, 5 times more expensive but build qualty seems to last.

Great little nail gun.

Shoots and loads well, no jams. Rubber bump stop on the front of the gun stops 2 1/2” nails from fully embedding even with PSI at 110 and depth set to max (it keeps the gun too far from the material) After removing the rubber and replacing it with some hockey tape it works fine. No complaints for the price, the modification only took a few minutes.

Works very well! I'm happy for buying this tool.

Used it for about 4 months now and it works very well. I would recommend.

excellent product for around the house nailing projects. moulding, og, cabinets. Used with 1.5 inch nails and it gave very robust results.

Good

I had only used a few times before my neighbor borrowed it. But I think its safe to say we both give it a thumbs up !

haven't used tons yet, but it has been faultless so far. Purchased for baseboards, casing and crown, so I have used a variety of nail lengths. I think it is a great combination of pricepoint and quality.

The nailer worked as expected. Attached tongue and groove (3/4" pine) to the ceiling with 2 1/2 inch nails.

Seems very dependable. Light weight and easy to use.

Very good for the price!

I was a bit skeptical about buying this nailer based on the price. But finally, I said, why not? A 16 gauge nailer with a 7 year manufacturers warranty for under a 100 dollars....how can I go wrong. I can assure you, this nailer is awesome. I went through more than 3000 nails on a project and had no misfires or jams. I can't wait for my next project to use it some more!

I'm happy about the nailer I Bought. I built some article for my little children and they have to be strong. Thank You

Although I have not used this nail gun extensively, my first use on a project was securing a piece of 1x2 red oak to some poplar. It drove 2" nails through the 3/4" red oak and into the edge of the poplar with no problem. There were no jams or mis-shot nails. I am very satisfied with this nail gun so far.

Worked welll for installing woodwork. Easy to load. Easy to fire.

This was my first nailer and being a novice, I found it was extremely easy to set up and use. Light weight, no jams, and the depth dial made it very easy to set the depth of the nails. Very impressed. I would definitely recommend. Looking to buy a framing nailer now and I would buy another Freeman.
