Customer Rating:      Summary: broke in first room - after 800 nails Comment: The cylindrical metal piston broke after about 800 nails. Since I didnt abuse the device, Im assuming it was a material defect (low grade steel or a preexisting microcrack that grew with use).
I returned it to a local home hardware store without a problem.
Im in a hurry so I am replacing it with a bostich pneumatic stapler.
If you have the time to hunt one down, get a porta nailer. And if you are covering a large area, consider a pneumatic gun.
Even if you enjoy manual labor, pounding nails for 5 hours at a time, every day can get old fast. Plus, the pneumatic versions can get closer to the end walls, saving enough hours to justify the extra $200 .
Customer Rating:      Summary: Floor nailer Comment: The nailer purchased was a third of a new one and looked and works like a new one. I felt like I got a very good deal on this nailer.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Not A Good Product Comment: I was only able to lay 130 ft of hardwood before the ratcheting system broke on the nailer. The nailer is still usable but you need to drive a 1 1/2 inch nail on one strike to use it. No small task. I would not recommend the tool to anyone and you would be better off buying the compressor and pneumatic nailer. It would be well worth the initial extra money.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good Tool Comment: This tool did what it was designed to do and did it well. I have nailed down about 1000 square feet of flooring with this nailer without 1 jam I am completely satisfied.
Customer Rating:      Summary: This is just the coolest ... Comment: I was so amazed when I opened this I wanted to use it right away but my nails came several days later. This let me read the instructions so I was ready when the nails arrived. I was totally amazed at how easy this was to use. It was my first flooring job and everything went smoothly and I mean everything. If I were in the business of flooring I would recommend you might look into the pneumatic one but for small areas this is more than adequate. Stanley Bostitch rocks ...

Straightforward enough for the do-it-yourself flooring installer, yet durable enough for the professional, this mallet-actuated flooring nailer comes with a rubber mallet so you’re up and running out of the box. Great for installing hardwood and engineered flooring, this nailer is lightweight but incredibly well-made. It drives 1-1/2- to 2-inch, L-shape, serrated cleats into tongue-and-groove, 3/4-inch solid hardwood as well as engineered flooring. An aluminum housing ensures optimal jobsite durability and easy handling. A long reach handle means less bending at the waist for better comfort and control. Rubber bumpers along the tool body help protect the floor from damage, a big plus when installing pre-finished flooring. Best of all, a 200-cleat magazine means fewer reloads, so you get the job done fast. Bostitch backs this tool with its 7-year warranty. --Brian D.
