However, for my work the 90 degree model works just fine.I use it mostly for 2 to 2 and a half inch nails. I looked elsewhere for this model and found refurbished units that cost more. I have used other makes but found this make and model more comfortable for me. I have brad nailers for shorter nails.I would highly recommend this model to anyone. Some may prefer a model that shoots angled nails, as they may reach into corners better.
I was very pleased with the prompt delivery of my pneumatic nailer and especially pleased with the price as I saved approximatly $50.00 compared to Home Depot for the exact same item.
He also expressed a very negative opinion about Porter Cable's dramatic decline in quality since they were bought out by DeWalt. This was the first nailer I've ever used and I was thrilled with it until it just stopped shooting nails after a couple of small projects. I didn't even get through the tiny starter box of nails that came with the nailer before it died. From my experience with this product and the advice from a reliable professional, I won't be replacing this nailer with another Porter Cable. I took the nailer to a guy who repairs tools and he said that it would cost more to repair than to buy new.
Nice tool to have around. Never a problem with it. Used it for installing moldings and replacing all the windows in my house.
Before Porter Cable sold their name this was a great pneumatic company with excellant service. The FN250A by the orginal company Porter Cable was a fairly good nailer. Now its just junk. If it breaks don't bother trying to fix it just trash it and buy the cheaps thing you can find and junk it when it finally breaks.
