This is an easy tool to love. The joints it makes are strong. I’ve built theatre sets and a sauna in the short time that I’ve had it. On a few occasions the grain of the wood has diverted one of the pins out the side of the wood, even when attempting to direct the pin away from the side. Pulling these out without damaging the wood is a chore. But, on the whole, I would buy this again in a heartbeat.

So nice not to have to drag an airline all around. Doesn’t eat batteries so that’s nice as well. It is somewhat heavy but less so than dragging a hose around.

I bought this for a remodel. This allowed me to very quickly redo trim boards without cords or hoses. It's also a great gun for cabinetry or other sheet projects like wall board. Strong stapler can smack these narrow staples right through solid or plywood with few failures.

Very nice tool. Really haven’t had a chance to really work it but what i did try with it…. Very nice! Drives the staples right down, has lots of power and nomisfires at all. Little heavy but it depends on how big your battery is as well. Its a Dewalt that says it all. Easy to use, place it down and shoot. I’ll repost later on after it gets a few miles on it. But so far its awesome and works great.

Works great sometimes doesn’t shoot last few staples. It is very heavy so would not recommend for extended overhead use.

Not fast but does the job when compressor is far

This worked great on a big project stapling hardware cloth to a new chicken run. Used 1 1/4" stainless steel staples. It has a fast enough response and consistent driving depth. Yes, a bit bulky and heavy but worth it to not have the compressor and hose to mess with. Long battery life and fairly quiet too.

Let me start by saying this staple gun is like the Arnold Schwarzenegger of DIY tools—solid, a bit hefty, but boy, does it get the job done!When I first unboxed this beast, I had to do a few bicep curls just to prepare myself for the weight. Seriously, if I wanted a workout, I'd hit the gym, not frame my artwork. But once I got past the initial shock (and a few strained muscles), I was ready to conquer my trim and DIY framing projects like a pro.Now, about the bulkiness—it's like holding a mini bazooka, minus the explosions (unless you count my neighbors wondering what I'm building this time). Maneuvering it felt more like directing traffic than precision crafting. But hey, sometimes you need a tool with a presence, right?But let's talk performance. This staple gun doesn't mess around. It's like the Hulk smashing staples into place—loud, proud, and impressively effective. The staples went in smoother than butter on a hot biscuit. No jams, no drama—just sturdy, secure attachments.Battery life? Solid. It lasted longer than my attention span during a DIY project marathon, which is saying something. Plus, reloading was a breeze. Even my cat could do it (if she had opposable thumbs).Despite its heft and bulk, this staple gun is now my go-to for trim and DIY framing. It's like having a dependable sidekick—maybe a bit overenthusiastic, but you know it'll have your back.So, if you don't mind a tool that's a tad beefier than your average staple gun, go ahead and add this bad boy to your cart. Just be prepared to work those muscles while you work your magic. Happy stapling, my DIY comrades!
