Powernail1845F Pneumatic Trigger-Pull 18 Gauge Flooring Stapler for Engineered and Laminate

This is a great flooring stapler. It’s sturdy, seems to be well-made, and so far has had zero malfunctions. I purchased this stapler after having used a bostitch stapler on my last engineered hardwood job…. The bostitch stapler was jamming up two or three times a day, and it was brand new… maybe I just got a bad one, I don’t know, I’ve had good luck with bostitch nailers/staplers in the past. Will definitely be purchasing more Powernail equipment in the future. I believe some of their nailers are still made in the USA, this 18 gauge stapler is not. At the time of my purchase, the “country of origin” in the description was listed as USA. I was disappointed to find it is made in Taiwan, but this fact definitely does not hinder it’s performance. This gun requires Powernail staples, which are not sold at home centers, as far as I know…. So make sure you order an adequate supply of staples…. Or check with local flooring supply distributors, they will most likely carry them. Overall, I’m very happy with this tool. It works well, and so far, is reliable. The foot is easy and fast to adjust for different flooring thicknesses, and I like the open design of the magazine which makes it easy to tell when your getting low on staples.

I have been using this for the past week installing engineered flooring. The staples go in every time with no adjustments. The double trigger is easy to use, and no kickback. Setup was easy. I am glad I bought this.

I’ve installed +8,000sq ft so far and not one jam. Works flawlessly. Quality built. You can feel it. Double trigger is a little different but in 10 min it will be 2nd nature. I’ve purchased 2 different prowernail guns after this one. Just due to the quality. Stepping up my game.

I have installed lots of flooring in my house over the years and just completed this big flooring job in my photo with this 1/4 inch crown stapler into 9/16 inch thick engineered wood without a single misfire. The nailer is small, lightweight and very easy to adjust. You flip a lever to loosen the base, set the stapler into position on the wood, move the base to rest on the floor and flip the lever to lock it in place. Because it is so small, it got close to my wall with my 9 inch wide planks and I only had to face nail the ends that will be covered by base moldings. Highly recommend!

I bought without any reviews and hoped for the best. It was better than best. Not one jam or misfire installing 600 sq ft. of engineered flooring. Light weight and easy to use.

This staple gun works great...not a single misfire and was easy to set the correct pressure on. Staples work really well because they have a built in stop...just drive them in!

This stapler has been great. I have had no issues with it what so ever and I've ran around 5000 staples through it so far. The trigger is easy to use. I'm happy I bought this stapler for my flooring project.

I'm a professional floor installer. Don't waste your money on cheaper guns, I did. The Powernailer works great! Holds more staples then other guns and more importantly is consistent with driving staple depth. I highly recommend this staple gun.
