It will not drive a nail though 3/4 inch hickory. It jambs and the nail is left half way in the wood. When I use it on 3/4 oak, it will only set the nail about two thirds of the time. It is light weight and comfortable to hold, but if it doesn't drive nails, who cares? I does work in softer woods, hence the one star. I hope I can still return it. By the way, I am a interior trim sub-contractor and all of my pneumatic nail guns have no problem driving nails into the same wood. Not powerfull enough

The nails MUST be high quality such as Senco. I had some jam in this gun because the were an off brand I tried to use as I ran out of the Senco DA type I use. I use the Paslode yellow short fuel can. <br /> I can even over-drive in hard wood if I want. Not sure what was wrong with the other user's review tool, could be a few things, most likely the fuel is old[none is included, have to check the date code on the can], or the nails are jamming because they are not like quality 15 ga SencoDA's, or the wrong type/gauge such as "UA "or Bostich angle which look similar but are not for this gun. <br /> This is an excellent design, well made in Taiwan, not China[wish it was made in USA]. <br />Balance is excellent. Makes other battery only guns look like framers, at about 4#'s it is great for use overhead and on ladders, clip can be used to hang gun easily. This is so lightweight and precise I hardly use my many other air nailers. The 16 ga. straight Paslode I have, never gets used now, much larger,no angle, heavier, balance nowhere as good. The battery last a very long time and is low cost to replace unlike the other expensive higher voltage guns. The bonus screwdriver is nice for small , light work such as electrical. The molded case has extra room and hold gas cans too. <br /> <br />The complaints are minor. The nose cover does not stay on the storage stud, falls off easily and the door on the gas cover seems like it could break as it has a thin plastic fold as a hinge not a pivot pin like the Paslode or my Hitachi cordless RH Framer . <br /> <br />Just thrilled with this tool overall.

I can even over-drive in hard wood if I want. Not sure what was incorrect with the other user’s review tool, could be a few things, most likely the fuel is ancient[none is included, have to check the date code on the can], or the nails are jamming because they are not like quality 15 ga SencoDA’s, or the incorrect type/gauge such as “UA “or Bostich angle which look similar but are not for this gun.

This is an brilliant design, well made in Taiwan, not China[wish it was made in USA].

Balance is brilliant. Makes other battery only guns look like framers, at about 4#’s it is fantastic for use overhead and on ladders, clip can be used to hang gun easily.
