Be sure to give it a few drops of oil along the way, especially this time of year with high humidity. I bought it to hang wood lattice on the ceiling of my screened in porch. Product worked flawlessly. Super job and no complaints. I have always liked and will continue to buy Dewalt tools. You may have to play around with air pressure so you don't drive staples thru the lattice.
I wish it had a stop to let you know when you are out of staple though. Lets be up front, my review is based on a 68.00 investment. I picked this tool up about a year and a half ago for about half price on Amazon. I use the tool only occasionally and it has worked perfectly every time. Mine also came with a good quality carry case. The tool has no sharp edges to mess up your finish work, the weight is light enough, depth of drive is easily adjusted with a push button, the magazine opens easily and smoothly and you can view the last of the staples as you finish a strip.
I like the light weight and the staples feed very well. The safety nose piece tends to stick on accasion hence 4 stars but I'm satisfied with it.
I purchased this item from Amazon and paid far less than anything from the Big box stores. Dewalt makes great air tools I will definetly try them again. The stapler came in a very nice case with all the stadard parts.it has preformed flawlessly and exceeded my expetations. After I purchased this Amazon dropped the price 10.00 more dollars which they quickly credited back what a deal.
This tool comes with NO air fitting. The better tools in this class are oil-free. And for good reason. The better tools also have a belt hook, which the DeWalt doesn't.Yes, this tool is inexpensive. This stapler requires daily oiling, which is not stated in the Amazon description nor on the DeWalt website. You need to go buy an air nipple before you can use it. Do yourself a favor and buy a better tool.DeWalt also did not answer my email and does not have a phone number listed for customer support/information. Again, the better tools in the class come with a swiveling air fitting.
