38 customers mention6 positive32 negative

Customers have issues with sinking the nails in with the disc grinder tool. They mention that the nail may not fully drive in with any battery nail gun, the delay before firing is painful, and the tool doesn't set nails all the way. Some say that the tool consistently sinks the nails deeper than they would like and struggles to drive nails through anything but trim.

Heavy but works great

Heavy but works great
Installed 525 square feet of tongue and groove 3/4 ceiling and 400 square feet of 5/8” shiplap with very few issues. I had a couple of nail that didn’t set all the way but that may have been due to my inexperience. I used 1-1/2 stainless steel nails since this was an outdoor project. It will last all day on a 5Ah battery. It is quite heavy with the battery and nails so I would recommend a sturdy tool belt to hang it on when you need both hands. It is also loud so wear hearing protection.
Thank you for your feedback
