Factory-Reconditioned Bostitch U/BT200K-2 5/8-to-2-Inch 18-Gauge Brad Nailer
I didn’t have high expectations for a cheap reconditioned nailer…i had never used an air nailer before either. This thing is fantastic! The build quality is really nice, light but solid. i’ve put maybe a thousand brads of all different sizes through it, no jams, no worries. It’s pretty quiet all things considered, makes glue ups for my projects go so easy and most important i love using it! I find myself trying to come up with more projects just so i can use it. The ONLY thing i could think to comment negatively on is that i always forget to check the brad quantity…sometimes i keep on nailing after it’s empty, and it still leaves the little hole where a nail would’ve went in so it’s hard to obviously tell it’s empty. there is a little window to check on this, but like i said it’s so fun to use that i get carried away and never check the nail supply. i highly recommend, in fact i’m going to buy a reconditioned stapler to match for real thin materials that a brad nailer wouldn’t work for.
I am happy with the lightweight of this tool. It has worked well with 5/8″,1-1/4″, and 1-5/8″ brads in soft maple and plywood.
I like the ability to change brad lengths without having to look for another tool.
The one disadvantage thus far is there is not a slot for 1-5/8″ brads to line up with, you have to use the next length slot. But this has not been a problem yet as to the function of the tool.
I like how light it is. However, when every sixth nail or so gets jammed in the gun it makes a carpenter very frustrated. Unacceptable performance.
This is the first nailer that I have owned. For new owners, be sure to read the supplied owners manual with special attention to the safety aspects. This is not a toy, it is very powerful.
The item is light weight and easy to operate. Both are important for extended periods of use. The nailer has an all plastic body, making it easy to keep clean.
It arrives in a hard plastic storage case, along with a small quantity of various sized brads.
I am presently using it in replacing my wooden fencing. The tool is very efficient and low impact.
I am very pleased with my choice. It is a very good value, considering the cost and quality.
This is a great little brad gun. Although refurbished, it arrived looking brand new. I had two jams. One was because I was not paying attention to my air pressure and was operating the gun at too low a pressure and the other was because after clearing the jam, I forgot to tighten the nose of the gun back together. So both were operator error. Otherwise the gun worked flawlessly and was light and easy to use. Would have given it 5 stars except that the nose is not quick release so when jams occur you have to take it apart manually. However, the gun provides an on-board allen wrench and extra no-mar tip on the side of the nail magazine – a great feature. The nose has 3 allen screws holding it together and is easy to service, just that a quick-release saves time. Would definately recommend.
