  • DeWalt: Because Apparently, We Need an Addition Now. 🔨😂
If the drill wasn’t enough, now my husband has a DeWalt framing nailer, and suddenly, he thinks he’s a licensed contractor. The man who once struggled to assemble an IKEA shelf is now casually talking about “load-bearing walls” and “proper joist spacing.” So far, he’s built exactly zero additions, but our fence is now over-engineered to withstand a hurricane, and the deck has been “reinforced” so thoroughly, I think it could support a herd of elephants. Meanwhile, I live in fear that I’ll come home one day to find a half-built guest house in the backyard. That being said—this thing is an absolute beast. Fires nails like a dream, no jams, and has enough power to make any guy with a YouTube DIY addiction feel unstoppable. If your husband gets one, just start mentally preparing for wildly ambitious projects and a Home Depot credit card bill that will haunt you. 10/10, highly recommend—but only if you’re ready to live in a construction zone. 😂🔩🔥 ... show more

  • Takes some time to get used to it but worth it.
If you are doing a lot of framing this is a must. Installed a lot of 2x4 framing to rebuild old sheds and then installed OSB and while sometimes it did jam if you use the tool and loosen the head they clear right out. Don't get in a hurry wait until the tool spins up and hold it straight and firmly. Batteries last a long time. It is heavy but it needs to be. I could not have done the work using a hammer, holding up the OSB and nailing at the same time. Great tool, it was my first battery nailing hammer and so much better than hauling around a compressor and pulling hoses. ... show more

  • Having issues with motor “spooling up”-doesn't operate in cool weather conditions
I had to go Dewalt as all my battery packs are Dewalt. For starters: This gun has frequent jamming issues. But the real issues started as fall is turning to winter. I’m nearing the end of a cabin build and am having issues with the motor not “spooling up” to full RPM and thus doesn’t drive the nail. I switched batteries and still not working properly. I’m hoping it’s the cold wet weather and that after a night of drying out. Update: this tool doesn't like to operate in cool to cold weather. After every use, I have to through it in the cab of my truck to keep it warm, or it will not work. If I had the option I would go with Milwaukee. ... show more

  • Great tool, easy to use and handy
I bought this nail gun so that my young daughters could help me with projects. Before i bought this nail gun my two older daughters could help out and drive nails with hammers but the younger two got tired easily when using the hammers. But they LOVE using this nail gun!

  • Perfect for home owner
Tool works well. It takes a bit of time for it to be ready for the next nail. If I were a contractor or someone who used this for work it would not be worth it. But for home use I have no real complaints. It’s a little bulky , gully dits well in my hand. I am glad I bought it.

  • Highly recommended
Never fails that when I buy a Dewalt cordless tool I wish I bought it sooner. No different with this. Beats a hammer and nails. No issues with jamming that others have had. Battery life is decent with 5aH batteries. Magazine could be bigger but it’s likely a standard size for strip nails.

  • Surprisingly powerful
As a weekend about this to remodel my basement and it is worth every penny when the battery starts getting low or to the point where I can’t push a nail through completely it stop shooting as opposed to leaving a nail half-shot. It’s surprisingly heavy, but when it comes to just framing 2 x 4 studs, absolutely perfect. ... show more
