Summary: Disappointed
Comment: When I first purchased this gun it performed like a dream, however, after the first brads things started to go wrong. These problems were not corrected even when thirty minutes is spent cleaning the gun as per the manufacturer's directions. I have faithfully used both the expensive de-greasers and lubricating oil to no avail. I appear to spend longer cleaning the bloody thing than actually using it.After a thorough cleaning the gun works well for a short time and then the problems start. The gun will consistantly misfire, in that the nose will be depressed and the fan will start, but no combustion occurs. Originally I believed that it must have been the spark, but that appears to be okay. I have returned this particular gun to the service agent on a number of occasions for the following reasons: Split main o-ring
Fan motor burnt out
hole in the dust filter, failure to fire when contact element is lightly, but fully depressed. Another major problem with this model is the spring in the magazine hold open device. This spring keeps the rear of the nails properly aligned. I have lost this spring, by vertue of it falling out, on no fewer than three occasions. I have now given up with this feature of the gun and it still seems to function okay. Don't get me wrong I am not anti-paslode, . I own the framer and air fit out gun and their great tools, however this fit-out gun is a lemon. Steer well clear of it and purhaps look at some of the newer models. I wish I had, but I liked the ability to change between guages of the brads.

Summary: customer service
Comment: Living in Los Angeles must be the "out back" to Paslode, I purchased the tool with the understanding that nails and fuel cells could be purchased at places like Lowes and Home Depot or at best at local tool outlets. I have yet to find a retailer that sell the 18 guage nail, some do sell brads. I had to have the fuel cell UPS'ed from Oxnard Ca. I went on line and discussed the problem with Paslode. They could care less, they insist that fuel cells and nails are available(but they wouldn't sell me any????. So I continue to call tool supply stores and check larger retailers. The Paslode catalogue "on line fastener section" does not even refer to the nails in question. As far as performance, when using brads it works adequatly. So to any and all of you that are considering the purchase of this tool make sure that accessories and supplies are available Would I buy another produce-----NO.

Summary: an okay nailer
Comment: I was refinishing all of the closets in my house and grew tired of the hammer, smash thumb, bent nail, then have have to set the nail routine so I went to my local Home Depot and rented on these cordless nailers. I was originally going to rent a Bostich angled finish nailer since i already have a compressor but when i got there, they were all rented out! I was bummed at first but i saw this nailer in the corner so i decided to give it a shot. It took some getting used to at first but it proved fairly easy to manuever in my cramped closets. I did like the fact i didnt have to mess with my compressor but i didnt like how large the engine was and it was kinda top heavy. It also seemed to have touble sinking in about 15% of the nails i shot. I dont know if this is how they are or because it was an abused retal. Given the cost id rather have one of those nailer/compressor combos.

Summary: watch your altitude!
Comment: This is a great tool... unless you try to use it at 4500 ft above sea level>>>IT WILL NOT FIRE AT ALL!!!I bought it a year ago and tried it on a trim job and it fired ~5 times out of 100 attempts...I did use it this summer to line our cottage sauna with cedar and it fired ~98% of the time (at 1000 ft above sea level)...so be aware of this limitation, otherwise it works great

Great for all kinds of finish and trim work, this Trimpulse finish nailer from Paslode lets you avoid the hassle of compressor hoses and compressor noise. Its small (less than 12 inches long), lightweight body (5 pounds, 8 ounces) is easy to grip and, because you're not hooked to a hose, doesn't cause as much arm fatigue as other nailers. The nailer drives 3/4- to 2-1/2-inch nails and has easy-to-adjust drive depth, as well as a Quick-Clear feature that provides easy access to the nailer's nose if a jam occurs. This Paslode nailer also uses a patented system that requires both a fuel cell and an included rechargeable battery. We were impressed by the nailer's performance--it's consistent and there's plenty of power for most uses. This model will shoot up to 2,400 nails on a single fuel cell and up to 4,000 nails on a full battery charge. It also has a convenient belt hanger so you don't have to lay the gun on the ground or on top of a ladder, and the high-visibility orange makes it difficult to overlook. The kit includes a plastic carrying case, a lightweight charger, and safety goggles. Please note that the nailer does not come with the fuel cell included. --Jonathon Tudor
