This is the first nail gun I have experienced/owned and boug...ht to help aging hands and arthritis issues with basic craft and hobby activities. Only used it a couple of times but it seems a well constructed unit easy to load and operate. Not as heavy as I expected but, as others have said, you need a lot of down force (preferably two handed) to ensure that the brads and staples are fully inserted so joints need supporting with clamps etc to get the best results. Otherwise, not a problem to tap in the odd half millimetre to finish off. This seems to be a common problem with electric units so no reason not to consider this as a purchase. If you want full insertion, go air gun but the compressor cost are prohibitive for a casual user like me. I find the cord length is ok. Before purchase I had researched many other makes both cheaper and more expensive and am happy with my purchase.

Compact and easy to use but even with the torq...ue setting on the highest this nail gun does not drive brads fully home, there Is always a small length protruding, but It Is a very small amount. It does however drive staples all the way In. Great value for the money and I would recommend It for the starter or hobbyist.

Easy to set up and make ready it ...does what I need. Has an adjustment for power which is good. It is rather heavy though, particularly if you use the larger Parkside battery, and can get tiring on the arms on a big job. All other wise good though

I was looking for a nail and staple gun withou...t having to splash out as significant sum of money as it will only have the occasional use. I also need a nail gun that had some versatility in the size nails (and staples) it could accommodate. And it need to be electric. This one ticks all the boxes. There are cheaper ones out there and ones costing significantly more. This sits towards the less expensive but takes a good range of nail and staple sizes in the one gun. I have only tested it on some trial pieces of wood and it works perfectly well. It's main use will be to nail T&G to batons as well as to nail plywood to create a shed roof and I do not expect that I will have any problems. It feels very robust is very easy to operate and has sufficient safety features. Overall this is a decent piece of kit, is inexpensive and seems to do what is says on the tin. I have no hesitation in recommending this nail gun for the general DIY enthusiast.
