I was going to buy a less expensive 18 gauge Brad nailer when I saw this Metabo for a special 1/2 price deal. My LUCK!!! Excellent product,solid and well made with a great reputation. I love its ease of use and sturdy feel and its light weight. For bird houses and other hobby projects, it is exactly what I was looking for. I should have gotten on years ago. Thank you Metabo for making such a great product so affordable. The nail gun will be next on my wish list.

Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2023
Style: NT50AE2 OnlyVerified Purchase
Not sure what I can say that others have not about this Fantastic machine. It is extremely light and handles very well! I was shocked when I first picked it up. It still managed to feel like a high-quality and rugged piece of equipment. I shoot mostly very small Pins with it and it does so with great precision and ease. One thing I wish it did have is a way for you to pull back the safety nose so you could fire it without having to press it onto the surface. It took a little getting used to, but I really like it a lot. I use it more often than I would otherwise because it’s so pleasant to use. Combined with my new very quiet air compressor, things are Pretty nice in the shop nowadays.

Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2023
Style: NT50AE2 OnlyVerified Purchase
I have an Hitachi 16ga finish nailer and an Hitachi framing nailer. They’re both almost all metal and very sturdy, easily standing up to everyday use. I bought this brad nailer to replace a Bostich that gave up the ghost sheet after 15 years. Not sure if it’s just this product, but this Metabo (formerly Hitachi) nailer just isn’t as well-made as the other two. It operates fine, no jams after running a couple of thousand brads through it, but only time will tell if the plastic components hold up.

No se debe comparar con las mejores marcas ya que su precio es de una tercera o cuarta parte de lo que cuestan las de uso industrial, la compre para trabajos externos y ocasionales, no para uso rudo y ha funcionado bien, el cuerpo de la herramienta tiene muchas partes plásticas, las industriales son todas de metal
