Bad product,
July 21, 2009
By DEdward
from Plains, GA
"This nail gun is a piece of junk. I bought one and sent it to the factory because it would not work. It took a year to get it back. It worked for about 20 nails and quit. It is a 14.5 amp gun, most circuits are 15 amps. If anything is running other than the nail gun it lowers the amps. I installed a 20 amp circuit just for the nail gun. The outlet is one foot from the breaker. It still would only set the nails 50% of the time. If you buy one of these guns you need to remember this review."

Brad Nailer,
July 14, 2009
By Dave02
from Missouri
"Drives brads very well (even long ones) will small countersink consistantly and in hard-woods. MUST keep pressure down on head during driving or nail will not drive to right countersink depth. This is obvious requirement with this kind of tool and definitely not fault of this tool. You need to do same with pneumatic. Very powerful and I am very satisified, especially for price. Makes driving brads a breeze. I had to return the 1st unit I received because the brads bound up in the driving head; nailer had been used and returned as evidenced by scratches and receipt condition. Northern was very easy to work with for return and even provided new nailer and pre-paid return sticker before I sent other one back - very satisfied."

Solid inexpensive brad nailer.,
August 31, 2008
By SpartaGeorge
from Sparta, NJ
"The quality and performance of this tool is excellent for the money. Following the recommendations of prior reviewers I used a 12 gauge 50 ft extension cord powered from a 20 amp outlet and the tool performed perfectly. I did back up the top of the tool opposite the firing end with my hand or knee and all of the Porter Cable 1 1/4 in brads I used were set completely (pressure treated pine).
Note that just for the sport of it I tried the tool using a 100 ft 12 gauge extension with out success. The brads failed to completely seat by about 1/4 in.
Minor power inconveniences aside this is an excellent inexpensive tool."

Electric Brad Nailer — 1 1/4in. Nail Size,
August 18, 2008
By klh444
from Boothwyn, PA
"Excellant value and performance. Drives brads in completely and leaves minimal marring. You will need at least a clean 15 Amp power source. A 20 Amp source is recommended to insure brads are fully seated in hard woods."

"For the money it is outstanding... I bought it to replace the Campbell-Housefield brad nailer that broke when dropped. This one has is easier to use (trigger lockout doesn't hang up) and more powerful."

A Handy Finish Nailer,
April 21, 2008
By safetydude
from Houston, TX
"Bought this to install cedar closet lining in three walk-in closets. I knew my bride would not be happy with air hose going up to the third floor through a window, or worse, up the stairs. Found this great alternate. Using 1-1/4" brad nails it flawlessly set the nails through the cedar and into the stud. Very few had to be hand set. I used the nailer with a 25' 14g extension cord with no issues."

Brad Nailer,
April 21, 2008
By Anonymous
from Duluth, GA
"Purchased Nailer for light duty projects (cabinets, book cases, furniture etc.). Product performed well on most soft woods but not so well on manufactured materials such as hardboards. Nailer does jam occassionally, especially when used on manufactured material. Jams are difficult to clear and add a lot of time to projects."

A good nailer for the price.,
April 17, 2008
By johnjohnthe11
from Eldridge, Iowa 52748
"I used the nailer at my sons house to install oak chair railings and mop boards. It performed as well as my air nailer and I did not have to transport my air compressor. By following the instructions and holding my free hand tight against the head of the nailer the nails did not have to set by hand. All I had to do was fill the holes and varnish to finish the job. I would reccomend the nailer for any one who has a need for a nailer and do not have an air compressor.

Great for small and some medium jobs,
April 7, 2008
By art2500
from Pennsylvania
"I had just finished replacing the attic pull down steps and the nailer arrived. We framed out the opening and used the nailer to put up the molding around the opening. The nailer worked great. No more overhead hammering. Every nail went in perfectly. Do make sure that you have an outlet that can handle the 14 + amps this baby uses.
Recommended for all small jobs and some of the medium jobs that don't require any nailing bigger than 1 1/4 " nailing."
