5.0 out of 5 stars Brand name quality at a great price
I was considering a cordless nailer, but could not decide if I should get a 16 or 18 gauge nailer. I came across this "combo" unit from Bostitch and it changed my mind. For less than I would have paid for one nailer, I get three nailers and the compressor. The products feel high quality and the few test runs I have made with the unit confirm it. Cordless units may free you from being attached to a hose (for as long as the battery lasts) but the cordless nailers weigh far less and are less bulky to use. I am very happy with this product and pleased with the quality. I am extremely happy with the combo pricing.
5.0 out of 5 stars Zero complaints, everything works perfectly.
I worried for nothing. Everything works as well as I hoped. I have several hundred nails through both guns now, and not a single malfunction.The compressor is… well, it’s not quiet, that’s for sure, but as far as compressors go, it’s not bad. The gauges and regulator work well, as does the regulator. I don’t have a lot of experience with air tools, so I tried a bunch of different air pressures fro 80 to 130. One twist of a knob, and pressure is set.The tank has a nice, semi-knurled bleeder valve on the bottom of the tank. That’s to release the pressure if you’re not going to be using it for a while, as well as to bleed out any accumulated water.When I first fired it up, I didn’t know about the valve, and it was open. (Directions? Who reads those??) Obviously that made a lot of noise as the pressure was leaking right back out with a loud whooshing sound. Once I figured that out, it was MUCH quieter haha. With the valve closed, the tank fills up and shuts off in about two minutes from empty, and only kicks on once in a while.I really didn't want to hear it at all though, so I grabbed It's not that loud, but it's much quieter when it's in another room. That hose is a lot higher quality than the very skinny one that comes with the kit, but hey, it's a hose, and it works fine.The kit doesn’t come with any nails or staples, but I bought an assortment of different lengths for both the nailers and the stapler. I initially thought the stapler needed some kind of special staples, but no, it takes regular T50 staples you can buy anywhere. Good news, cuz I have a ton.The 18 gauge brad nailer and the 16 gauge finish nailer sound like they’d be about the same thing, but no. One peek at the guns and you can see the 16 gauge is a monster. The 18 gauge nailer is adequate for trim and baseboards and light work, but the 16 gauge nailer is much more powerful. Not for framing, but pretty much anything else. That one has an easy to adjust depth setting thumbscrew on the nose.I had no jambs at all with any of the tools, and I used nails from 1” to 2 ½” in both nailers, with pressures from 80 to 130 psi. A couple of times when nailing on baseboards I hit drywall screws. The nails bent, but never jammed my nail guns. I can’t believe I waited this long to get this.The only problem with this compressor is that it has a tendency to want to spin on the floor. I put it on a rubber doormat, and that stopped it. The feet are rubber, but there’s usually sawdust or dirt on a jobsite, and apparently that’s all the feet need to let it spin. Might be that all of these pancake compressors do the same thing, I dunno.In any case, this was definitely a good buy, and I’m thrilled with it. Build or fix something for your spouse, and it’ll be justified.Pros+ Zero problems after hundreds of nails.+ Simple to use regulator.+ Comes with hose, two guns, stapler, and instructions (if you feel like reading them).Cons- No nails, staples, or tool oil included.- Wife now wants a lot of projects done.

5.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly better than DeWalt
I ordered the DeWalt equivalent compressor and 18 gauge brad nailer a few days before buying this. I was sorely disappointed in the the quality of their compressor, as it had a leak from the get go. Additionally, the quality was just cheap - not typical of DeWalt products. The DeWalt brad nailer was nice, but had a plastic grip and all plastic firing trigger mechanisms. The nailer was "okay" for the price - would give it a 4 star.I decided to check what else was out there for about the same price and ran across this. I've been a DeWalt guy forever and have never checked out Bostitch tools. Ran across this combo kit and saw that it came with a 16 gauge nailer AND a stapler in addition to the 18 gauge nailer. I thought, this has to be poorly made. Then I read the reviews and gave it a shot.Upon opening the box and feeling the tools, it was immediately that this was a superior product to the DeWalt combo. Like the DeWalt, it has rubber feet and two quick connects. This came with a hose, where the DeWalt did not. The plastic parts of the Bostitch compressor are much more rigid - doesn't feel like it's going to break if you bump it wrong.The Bostitch tools have rubber anti-slip grips, where the DeWalt has plastic.All three of the Bostitch tools were exceptional quality for the price, especially considering they came with the compressor.I'd highly recommend anyone considering the DeWalt combo considers this instead. Won't be disappointed!
4.0 out of 5 stars Great value, but my gauge glass cracked 2 weeks in
I'm very happy with this purchase. However, it's my first time owning nail guns so I don't have much to compare to. That said, they are easy to operate, work flawlessly. I haven't had any issues with jams. I watched a few Youtube videos on common nail gun/brad nailer mistakes. That helped me avoid issues. The compressor fills quickly and isn't obnoxiously loud. I love the portability.The only issue I have had may have been from something I did wrong. Not sure. I drain the tank when it's not in use. One day, I noticed that that the take pressure gauge glass was cracked. This was about 2 weeks after purchase. I'm not sure how that happened but the gauge still works so I'm not too concerned with it. Maybe I should've read the instructions more carefully...All said, good product and good value.
5.0 out of 5 stars Mine is 5 years old now and works great!
It won't power a Jackhammer, but we use it all the time. We bought ours for repairing our eves with giant nails. But we have used it on just about every repair job since. Add a tire inflator & little air gun to the bag and your family will use it way more then you might suspect. Well worth the money.
Good value!
Quiet, rarely fires up when using air nailer
Quality set
Amazing value package. Not let me down once. No jamming.
Works great
All is good with this product.Everything works as it should.
Very lower but a good little unit for the price
Haven’t used it yet because it is a Christmas gift but I did plug it in just to make sure it worked and looked it over, it is quiet lowed which I was a little surprised about seeing that the oil free ones tend to be very very quiet but besides being very noisy it seams like a good little unit and a great price for all u get. If ur looking for something well made with a good price tag I would recommend this product.
