Easy to Use!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy and lightweight enough for both me and the hubby to use.The fasteners are easy to load. I tried to make this thing jam and couldn't. Light enough to spend a lot of time using, but enough heft to know it is serious business. It does exactly what it is supposed to do. The kind of quality product we have come to expect from Craftsman. Handy Dandy belt clip. I wish i had this years ago, so handy to have. Cannot wait to use it more.

Decent tool!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tool does its job! Comfortable in my hand and easy to manipulate while working. The variable pressure switch works but could be easier. I’ve used this on a couple different projects around the house and am planning a lot more!

Handy tool

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very pleased with the performance of this 16 gauge straight nailer. The storage box is very strong and holds the tool perfectly. The clips to open and close it are easy to handle. The nailer is very lightweight and has a comfortable grip. Nails flawless with a no jam feature and if it does jam by chance it has a release that unjams in seconds. Holds enough nails to not have to stop every 5 mins to reload. My favorite part is the belt clip that ...

great features

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received this about a month ago and used it to frame an arch between my dining area and living room. Worked great, did not any problems with jamming that I had experienced with other brands. The grip was easy on my hands and the weight is well balanced. Very pleased with this product.
