5.0 out of 5 stars Wow
I have never been a DeWalt fan in the past but this stapler has made me start looking at them as a tool source again. It is very light and easy to manuever around a project. Easy to load. Easy to adjust depth. Tool free jam clearing although they are rare. This stapler has made several jobs so much easier and a pleasure to do again. Comes with both a bump trigger...

2.0 out of 5 stars Dewalt makes good tools, but not pneumatic tools
I have both 18ga brad nailer and this 16ga stapler. They all have same problem. The safety nose piece gets stuck and not releasing on it's own. You have to pull the trigger to release. By doing so, you lose momentum on your speedy process. They say you can shoot this thing 3 shots per second. I don't think I can do it that fast. Frustration goes all the way. Dewalt makes...

This review is from: DEWALT D51430 1-Inch to 2-Inch 16-Gauge 7/16-Inch Medium Crown Stapler (Tools & Home Improvement)
I have never been a DeWalt fan in the past but this stapler has made me start looking at them as a tool source again. It is very light and easy to manuever around a project. Easy to load. Easy to adjust depth. Tool free jam clearing although they are rare. This stapler has made several jobs so much easier and a pleasure to do again. Comes with both a bump trigger and a sequencial trigger so it can be set up how ever you want it. I like the bump. But changing over is easy to do. For the cost this DeWalt has exceded everything I expected. Very good buy. Please note I do woodworking as a hobby. I am not a contractor or someone who uses this 24 x 7. Just different projects as my wife comes up with them... But everytime I reach for it I know it will do the job. I can count on it. To me that means a lot.

This stapler is just what I need for all of my 16ga.stapler jobs. The depth adjustment and the trigger mode are both easy to change. It is lighter than most 16ga. staplers making it less tiring to operate for a full day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well made field stapler, April 10, 2008
This review is from: DEWALT D51430 1-Inch to 2-Inch 16-Gauge 7/16-Inch Medium Crown Stapler (Tools & Home Improvement)
I'm real happy with this stapler, it's been a great value and a real money maker at the jobsite. I think I picked it up for $110 bucks.

I run a 150PSI air compressor, and generally frame with 100lbs in the line. Turn your line pressure up to 110-120 when you're shooting 2" staples and it'll drive them with no trouble. Drives everything else just fine at 100PSI. The housing is durable and the unjamming mechanism is flawless, though it's only jammed twice in the last 3 houses we framed.

5.0 out of 5 stars so far so good!, June 14, 2011

This review is from: DEWALT D51430 1-Inch to 2-Inch 16-Gauge 7/16-Inch Medium Crown Stapler (Tools & Home Improvement)
Owned it for a week, used it for building a shed (mainly for stapling plywood floors and walls). Kept up to production needs and worked like a charm.

Didn't come with a bottom air attachment coupler. Fortunately I had extra, but thought that was weird.

All in all, me likey!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Dewalt stapler stopped working, June 8, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: DEWALT D51430 1-Inch to 2-Inch 16-Gauge 7/16-Inch Medium Crown Stapler (Tools & Home Improvement)
We bought this dewalt stapler about 2 months ago, it was new in it's original box. It worked great and replaced our 20 year old stapler that had begun to leak air. We used it about 6 times and it stopped working. We took it to a shop that specializes in Dewalt tools and the guy said that it is new 4 years ago. meaning it sat on a shelf for 4 years before we bought it. In that amount of time all the oil seals in the staple gun dried out and have to be replaced. Before purchasing a staple gun I would ask the age of the item

I recently purchased this staple gun for installing cedar shingles on my garage. It has performed flawlessly, I've shot around 7500 staples with no jams. The depth adjustment is very easy to use and the setting works with varying air pressure. Very good for what I needed it for. I also used Fastener USA for Stainless steel staples, very good service.

Dewalt makes good cordless nailers, but not pneumatic nailers. If you are a pro, use Hitachi.

This review is from: DEWALT D51430 1-Inch to 2-Inch 16-Gauge 7/16-Inch Medium Crown Stapler (Tools & Home Improvement)
For the price its Ok ,not great. It wont drive a 2" staple ,but it does work. If you are looking for something "heavy duty" keep looking.

This machine is very fast and works well. I bought this gun for a brother of mine who is into the upholstery business for years now. The first day he got it he started using it and was very satisfied with its speed and versatility. He says he would recommend it to anyone.
