The Brad Nailer works as advertised. I went through 500 nails quickly. My best Brad Nailer for craft projects. I'm a contractor, and I like this Brad Nailer. Works just fine and I would buy it again.

It's true that the PORTER-CABLE PCC790B Brad Nailer B017NJMQES was the 18 Gauge Nailers that we rated at the top. However, there were a few other truly high quality 18 Gauge Nailers we wanted to show you here that only just fell short.

The next in our tool break down is built by Koki Holdings America known to be a very highly regarded tool supplier. Koki Holdings America's Brad Nailers are great as well. It was great to test the NT50AE2M. I was very pleased using this tool!

The model NT50AE2M Brad Nailer by Koki Holdings America, at $77.24 is an especially exceptional Nailer for the money. If you unsure about our top choice, I'd look into the Koki Holdings America NT50AE2M next. It's a first class tool at a great price.

The DEWALT DWFP12231 and the BTFP1850K by Bostitch are well worth taking a look at as well. Both DEWALT and Bostitch are thought to be some of the top manufacturers of high quality Nailers. Each of these two tools enjoy terrific user ratings as well. The DEWALT boasts a user rating of 4.7/5 as contrasted against the 4.8/5 star rating received by the Bostitch BTFP1850K.

The DWFP12231 by DEWALT has a few features you might not find on other similar Brad Nailers. For example Long life maintenance-free motor to keep from staining the work surface. The BTFP1850K by Bostitch however, is very competitive featuring Tool-free adjustable exhaust cap conveniently directs exhaust away from the user and even Adjustable depth guide sets nails to desired depths quickly and conveniently.

I would be eager to suggest either of these 18 Gauge Nailers
