Whether you're installing flooring or completing a custom carpentry job, this versatile and ultra-efficient kit with two nailers, multi-function stapler, and an oil-free, pancake-style compressor will keep you on-track. The brad nailer has a user-friendly design and takes 18 gauge, 5/8- to 1-1/4-inch brad nails, while the finish nailer takes 18 gauge, 3/4-inch to 2-1/2-inch finish nails. There's also a multi-purpose stapler with a sturdy, durable design; it takes 18-gauge, 1/4-inch staples from 1/2 to 1-inch long. Each of these handy tools resist jams, and also offer a problem-solving jam release feature to prevent slow-downs from derailing your job. For added convenience, it's a snap to alter both the depth-of-drive and the exhaust port, and the non-marring nose tip and hardened driver blade ensure durability for long term, reliable performance. Additionally, the compressor provides maintenance- and mess-free results (no more oil spills!), has a lightweight, portable design, and can run on any standard household current. And its 10-Amp, 120-VAC motor, when combined with a full 6-gallon tank and 150 max PSI, has the power to complete all your fastening work in less time. The CFNBNS comes with one FN250B nailer, one BN125A nailer, and one NS100A stapler. These tools also arrive with a sturdy canvas carry bag, 6-gallon compressor, 40-foot air hose with coupler and plug, 3,000 fasteners, oil, and operating instructions.

Porter-Cable is not the quality it used to be.:
Porter-Cable has a history of building quality tools. Unfortunately that is not the case any more. I have purchased several nail guns and compressors and have always been shocked at how fast they break. Granted, they are cheap. If you only want it for a one time use and can't rent better tools it might make sense. If you want a tool that won't break in a couple of months, stick with Senco, Dewalt, or Ridgid.
Another Great Porter Cable Product!:
Bought this kit for $300 at the local hardware depot. First air compressor tool set for me. Compressor instructions were very thorough, making set up very easy! Compressor is quieter that my smaller one, and only recharged once for all the trim work I was doing. Nail guns work extremely well. Was pinning up white primered trim and door jams, no greasy spots left behind. Nail depth set level adjusts easy.

First Impressions:
I purchased mine at the orange vest store and it was as good of a deal as I could find anywhere at the time I write this review. I'm giving this unit 5 stars, although I had to return the first one I bought due to a faulty regulator. I was not getting any reading on the output, but the tank pressure was 140.

I loved the fact that I was able to drive down to the store and replace it immediately after releasing the pressure and draining the... more info
Oil-free = designed to break down:
This deal seemed to good to be true. I've owned 2 of these little units now, and to be fair - they both worked great for a year to two years. THEN, when you need them most - they break down, and because they are "oil-free," they are sealed and unfixable. So if spending $300 every 1-2 years is what you want to do - keep buying these. Otherwise you're wasting your money.
