Review by a non-professional first-time user:
While this tool is one of the most expensive I've purchased, its price is only a small percentage of the cost of the flooring being installed. While I did have the option of renting this tool, I chose to purchase it so that I wouldn't be influenced by the "meter is running" thoughts and took my time with the installation. The nailer requires some assembly and the appropriate allen wrenches were included. The nailer also came with the finished floor foot that I installed. The instructions were... more info
Love It:
The Bostitch Pneumatic Floor nailer is great. It is simple to position correctly and use. Just make sure that you don't let the nails run too low or it will misfire.

Excellent Nailer:
I'm a residential remodeler. Most of the projects I do are all taken care of in house. I.E. I don't subcontract much work. I bought this nailer about 3 years ago, and have yet to have an issue with it. I've used both a small 5 gal low CFM compressor, as well as a larger 26 gal high CFM, and both worked great with this tool. I've used this tool with, and without the additional finish flooring foot, and both have performed. I've used this nailer on at least 5-6 jobs, and probably close to 10,000 s/f of... more info
