Seems like a good deal... So Far... 18 Volt review July 3, 2006
23 out of 23 found this review helpful
I saw this cordless nail gun at Lowes at half the price of the DeWalt. I am going to need to do some trim work coming up and was not looking forward to manually nailing all the pieces, or the $399 list on the DeWalt alternative. Note: I do have several DeWalt tools, and find them to have exceptional value. I was concerned about this tool being from B&D. I know, DeWalt snob... But, with a baby coming up and other expenses, decided to try this tool. I have only shot a few dozen brads to make sure it worked OK out of the box. Also, I bought what I consider to be quality brads in decent packaging for a few bucks, rather than use the ones included. I would assume that brads kept straight in the packaging, rather than the somewhat bent packaging in teh B&D box would keep the tool firing better. Anyway, I was surprised to see how well it fired the 2" brads that I purchased. I was skeptical because most cordless/battery operated nailers only go up to 1-1/4". I don't think I'll have any problem going through 1/2" molding, 5/8" drywall and a stud with a 2" brad. If you're that concerned about thicker hardwood moldings (and can afford to purchase it!), you can probably afford the DeWalt and already purchased it!

I read the bad reviews and most of them must have been about the 12 volt version. I bought the 12 volt version of this nail gun when it first came out 2 years ago. I had good luck with it using the 1.5 inch nails on most projects although sometimes had to use more force than I would have liked to seat the nails.
When they came out with the 18 volt version though I was excited because the batteries were interchangeable with all of the other Firestorm tools I had. I managed to acquire one of the 18 volt versions and it is by far the best value for home owner cordless nail guns. Where the 12 volt would be slightly underpowered sometimes the 18 volt always had enough power to fully seat 2 inch nails. It seems to work even in oak. All in all great product for the money.

I read a few bad reviews about this nail gun but decided to try it anyway. The only thing I'm not crazy about is the battery doesn't hold a charge more than a day or two. But if you keep it charged up, it works fine. When the battery is low it will jamb or not drive nails all the way in. But it is easy to clear the jamb and goes all day with a fresh battery. I've gone through a few thousand nails with only a dozen jambs. Some guns are nearly as cheap but don't offer multiple nail size capability. Considering it's only half the cost of the better ones I think its good investment.

Have had the B&D cordless nailer for eight months now. Sorry the other reviewers have had such problems, but I've had nothing but success. Maybe I got the good one? Anyway I have used it to do all the composite molding in an 800-square-foot addition that we just built on our house. Also have used it to redo all the molding in the mainhallway and entryway, consisting of half-inch hemlock (includes 6 doors). And a couple weeks ago I built a headboard for our bed consisting of plywood back and fir, maple and hemlock. I've had no problem with it sinking brad heads, even in the maple, although I've found that the gun must be completely flush with the surface. I've used it with brads ranging from 5/8" to 2". We'll see how the tool works in the long run.
