Just the ticket for our new tongue and groove ceiling. So much faster and easier on my body than a hammer and nail set. Love not dragging an air hose around too. Another excellent Ridgid 18V tool for my collection.

I’ve been using the nailgun every day for the past three weeks and so far so good. I was unsure about buying it because of a lot of negative reviews. I have the brad nailer and do have problems with it not firing at times but so far the 16 gauge nailer is working good. I gave four stars because it’s a little bit heavy. I am glad I got the nailgun and as long as it keeps working well I wouldn’t hesitate to buy another. The price was certainly right.

Great product! More power than my pneumatic nailers without the air lines, bulkier, but better.
Great product, convenient

Terrible
Doesnt sink nails in basic trim, constantly double feeds, and is completely useless. I followed the instructions and made appropriate adjustments and it still doesnt work. I bought it months ago and am finally getting around to using it so now I cant return it. Stuck with a brand new useless tool and it’s very frustrating.

    This tool works surprisingly well. I made a small planter box for my wife. Finished the trim on my friends tool shed and nailed in some loose boards around the house. All with the same battery.

      Useless
      I bought this nail gun around the time that it came out. After repeated trips to home depot to drop it off for repairs and waiting forever for them to send it back saying it was "fixed" I gave up on it. It has less than a strip of nails total through it and has been sitting in storage forever. No matter the settings, nails, material, "repairs", it just can't seem to sink a nail all the way in. Ridgids other 18v nailers and air nailers have been great, not this one. If anyone wants it, take it.

        A bit big but does the job, Check your box!
        I drove to Collingwood an picked this up for a job and found when I got home the Belt Clip and Battery were missing.... This is not a ridgid issue more a Home Depot issue... Luckily I have other Ridgid tools so I have extra batteries and the belt clip is well, not handy when this beast weighs over 6 and a half pounds, so not worried there. All in all, as a tool it is great like my other Ridgid cordless tools.

          worked well for 3 months
          Used this as a handyman for various jobs and was more or less satisfied for the first 3 months. Love not carrying a compressor and the tool free adjustments! Does not always sink nails flush but I am used to having to follow with a nail punch so not a deal breaker. Now after about 3 months it will not fire nails of any size with any battery. After 3 separate trips to HD customer service and 2 calls to ridgid customer support, I am giving up on the LSA. I would only reccomend this for someone who does not plan to use it much.

            Very happy with the Purchase
            Works very well. I had no issues with nail depth. There is a setting to adjust it. Also, I have had no issues with battery duration as some have said. I am VERY satisfied with this purchase. Only complaint is the cost and it is heavy and bit bulky to get into tight corners.

            Should come with a hammer and nail set.
            It only shoots a nail about 1 in every 4 attempts. Then you have to remove the nails and reload them. It's heavy and bulky. A worthless tool.

              Rigid products have always worked great and this finish nailer is no exception, plenty of power and sure beats dragging around an air hose and noisy compressor.

              Would not drive a nail 1/2" into end grain wood, no matter what the settings.Yes the battery was fresh and the air power was on max. Returned it for a refund.

              Reliable Nail Gun
              This is a good nailer. It is a bit on the heavier side and it takes a bit of time getting used to adjusting to proper nail depth setting since it has a hyperdrive switch on the back in addition to your regular nail depth setting. But once you figure out the correct nail depth setting, the gun is pretty reliable. I used it to nail back my baseboards after installing hardwood flooring.

                Better than Pnuematic
                Bought this nailer 7 months ago for a renovation project. Used for baseboard, window trim, door casing and trim, crown molding, etc. Have driven over 2000 nails to date, dropped from ladder and continues to work well. Definitely glad I bought it!
