I purchased these nails to use in my Freeman 3-In-1 Flooring Nailer when installing 3/4" hardwood. No jams or misfires, and I've installed 150 square feet thus far. Nails were packed well in a sturdy box so I did not lose any nails due to breakage of the links. I have purchased an additional 2 boxes for the addition floors ahead of me.

I purchased 5 boxes of these nails to install bamboo floor for my house. The nails look exactly like ones at local Home Depot except the brand name.
I saved a few dollars each box with Amazon. There are a few loose nails in each box (happened during shipping, I guess). Most strips remained in one piece.
I used these nails with HarborFreight's flooring nail gun (about $140 regular price - but they put it on sale most of the time) and everything was just great. I think it was a good buy.

I ordered 7 boxes of these nails. When they arrived 2 of the 7 boxes were fine. In the other 5 boxes the nails were broken into pieces; it would be a real pain to load these into the nailer. All 5 of the broken boxes were made in China and both of the good boxes were made in Canada. I am returning the 5 broken boxes for credit and will find a local source.
