These nails are awesome. I purchased all sizes ranging from 1 1/4" to 2 1/2" for installing Cedar Tongue & Groove boards. They hold tight and true. Since, I've used them to pre-hang a Cedar Door, install Cedar trim, install pine trim in a workshop and as temporary supports when building doors for the barn.

Only one negative. When one box was shipped, it was put in a Amazon box 4 times the size of the nail box. During shipping, the nails busted through the nail box (they're heavy) and broke apart. Therefore, as you can imagine, not easy to load into the gun. However, Amazon shipped a new box w/o hassle. Unfortunately, they did not heed my advice about the box/packing and shipped the replacements the same way.

The product was a little pricey for the size job I needed to do. But I can't count the number of times I've needed a finish nailer and didn't have it.

I didn't buy one previously because of needing a decent size compresser - hoses, ets. But I saw this cordless electric one and knew it was going to be the right tool for me.

So far, I've only done about 300 ft of baseboard moulding. But this thing has been great. I charged the battery once, and it keeps going. Ususally when you put it away for a few weeks, a battery needs re-charged - but this one still has power.

I've only had one nail jamb. I clearly hit something behind the sheetrock that was inpenetrable. Clearing the jamb was easy.

I'd buy this product again.

What can I say? They are nails and they hold stuff together good. I have stepped on many a nail and I would prefer impaling myself on dewalt over, bostitch, paslode, or senco.
