Hitachi NR90AE Round Head 2-Inch to 3-1/2-Inch Framing Nailer

Editorial Review:

Hitachi's superior design and engineering make this a top-of-the-list choice for a framing nailer, just as hardworking as the NR83 model that preceded it, but with a few major improvements.
We like the way Hitachi's integrated both types of trigger, so there's no need to replace anything - just flip the lever on the tool down for bump or up for sequential firing. Also tool-free is the depth-of-fire adjustment: Just turn a small knob to set your depth. It's even easier than adjusting the air pressure.
This nailer has a 21-degree angled magazine and fires nails from 2 inches to 3-1/2 inches, a wider range than the old NR83 handled. Loading is much faster and easier on this gun, too, because Hitachi's redesign repositioned the loading mechanism at the rear of the magazine. A maximum of 64 plastic-strip collated full round head nails will fit in the magazine, but reloading takes a few seconds, so there's no downside to that. This is one of the most jam-free guns we've used; it just fires and fires. Should you find a way to jam it, the procedure to clear the jam is super fast and couldn't be easier.
The balance of this tool is incredible; at a relatively light 7-1/2 pounds, you'd expect to feel a little strain after using this gun for a few hours, but the ergonomics are fantastic. Hats off to Hitachi on this redesign. And of course, you'll notice immediately the difference in appearance between this gun and its predecessor. It's sporting Hitachi's hot new look, with brighter colors and a flame-like graphic, better suited, we think, to the new personality of this fantastic nailer.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Great tool!:

I love this nailer. I was concerned about working with the rough-cut seasoned oak studs in my 60 year old home. Not a problem with this powerful nailer - went right into them.

Very Useful:

After having owned a Porter Cable nailer for years, it finally gave out. I purchased a DeWalt nailer and was unhappy with it's performance so I used it 2 days and returned it. My brother had great things to say about his older Hitachi nailers so I decided to try this one. Today was the first day and I have to admit that I am impressed. The 2 negatives are the depth adjustment is kind of a pain and the dry firing when out of nails is not good but I'll take those two minor things in exchange for other nailers... more info

The Best Framing Nailer.:

The best framing nailer I've had. It's very light, well designed, attractive and functional. Highly recommended. This nailer doesn't come with 3/8" NPT connector

Great Product:

This is my first pneumatic. I bought this because it had the most solid reviews on Amazon. I bought it when it was $309 dollars at Amazon but even at that price it was still a hundred bucks less than what the local dealer was selling it for (plus tax).
Built ~300 feet of fencing, ~8000 nails and it has preformed flawlessly.
Having some indoor projects coming around and I think I will be looking for at the Hitachi brad nailer.
