20V MAX* Cordless Brad Nailer Kit, 18GA (DCN680D1)

Really works great. I'm doing lots of azek trim boards and having a cordless nail gun is awesome. I only use stainless nails and have the 16ga also.

I'm a homeowner and DIY-er. I was on the fence between this unit and a pneumatic nailer with a small compressor. My cellar is already pretty full, so I ultimately decided that the last thing I needed down there was another bulky item (the compressor) and hoses to coil, etc. I also anticipated using whatever nailer I got around the house, so the choice between lugging a 20-30 lb compressor up and down the stairs or this 5lb tool also factored into my decision. Noise was a consideration as well. Boy, did I make the right choice! I fell in love with this tool after the very first 'nail' I shot. Super-quiet compared to a pneumatic nailer and surprisingly easy to get into small corners and spaces. And no tank to lug around or hoses to coil! I couldn't be happier with this tool. Even though 18-gauge is relatively small, for the projects I need to do (trim, building plywood boxes and shelves, etc.) it's more than up to the job. The per-tool cost will be more expensive if I end up investing in other gauges down the line, but the portability of this thing more than makes up for that in my view. Once my cellar is more cleared out, I may still get a compressor - mainly to be able to blow off work pieces and inflate the tires on my car - but in my view this tool was worth every penny I spent. Build quality seems really good and I've found it really simple to use. My only two nit-picks are that the depth-gauge indicator is extremely hard to read (black on black) and the extra nose cushons that Dewalt supplies are easy to dislodge from their on-board storage spots. Be careful or you'll lose 'em quick! I should also note that I bought a 5 amp hour battery at the suggestion of another reviewer who mentioned that it balanced the tool better in-hand than the smaller 2 amp hour batter that's included. I also found that to be true. FWIW, I bought a lower-cost after-market battery that was 30% the price of the Dewalt-branded battery as I was mainly using it for balance. Seems to work great, though. As someone new to power nailers, I couldn't be happier with this gauge and this tool. Really, really impressed.
