Amazon.com Review
One of the most popular brad nailers on the market, this model from Senco is lightweight, oil free, and perfect for work on fine woods and trim. It has a comfortable foam grip and, at only 2.3 pounds, you'll be able to use it all day without having to worry about excessive arm fatigue. The nailer drives 5/8- to 1-5/8-inch medium- and slight-head brads and offers easy side loading and a handy jam-clearing feature. Since it's oil free, you can forget that morning maintenance ritual and--better yet--you won't have to worry about getting oil on fine woods. Overall, this is an easy-to-use unit that should be given serious consideration if you're looking for an everyday brad nailer. --Jonathon Tudor

 Awesome nailer June 30, 2008
This is a great nailer and very light. This is the one that Norm from that famous show uses and is why I bought it. I've used it for putting back the kick mouldings after a entire 1st floor hardwood floor install. Never has it got stuck or rejected. I typically use 65 PSI.
I used the B&C nails for this - not sure if Senco makes their own.
The only thing I wish it had was a small rubber bumper on the nail slot. And an audible alarm when it ran out of nails, since you don't notice it until pieces aren't sticking anymore to (in my case) the wall.
 Not used to setting nails October 29, 2007
I bought this gun with no research and found it lacking in power. (my other Senco guns work great) It will not drive an 1-5/8 inch brad into pine fully at 80 psi. There should be an adjustment for drive depth like other nail guns.

Been using this gun for 6 yrs now. I wouldnt trade it for the world. Only draw back is the drivers break.

I'm a full time finish carpenter, and I've run a lot of nailers over the years. The SLP 20 just makes the cut to be in my toolbox. I keep one around only because it's the only 18 guage 1 5/8" nailer available other than the expensive duofast 4450. I run a separate nailer for each length of brad I shoot- Max for 5/8" (discontinued), Hitachi for 1", Senco for 1 1/2", Max for 2". The 2" capacity guns will shoot 1 1/2" nails, but have beefier drivers to withstand the greater stresses of shooting the longer nails, which always leaves a larger dimple. The Hitachi NT32 1 1/4" nailer does an excellent job if you can go with the shorter nail.
The SLP 20 works OK, but is below the current standards in a highly competitive market. The magazine is exceptionally prone to jamming, and loading multiple broken segments of nails is a no go. The safety does indeed mar softer woods. The muffler is nice. The no-oil design is of no benefit. I have no oil on wood problems with any of my oil type nailers. The useful lifespan of this nailer is the shortest of any nailer I have ever owned, about 150,000 nails.
Senco was king of the hill in nailers till about 1990 when Hitachi blew by them. Hitachi has backslid a little by moving some of it's production to Taiwan and China.
Best brad nailer I have ever used April 25, 2006
I own this gun, Porter Cable's and Bostich's. I have used several other brands. This gun works the best. The safety tip is small and can fit in very tight places. I have shot thousands of brads with it and have never had a jamb, I seriously mean never. I cannot say that for the Bostich. The Porter Cable gun is great but cannot get into the tight spots this one can, e.g. corners. The never lube feature is great. I have never had problems with the power, then again I do have a good compressor. As a professional woodworker, I trust the slp20 and use it constantly.
