I woulda bought the Bostich, but my brother was buying, so.....did two
roofs with it and it lived. A bit fussy on nail coil quality to begin
with, jammed frequently , but once it was figured out that it wanted
nicely coiled nails it went away. PErhaps it was happenstance.

Didn't like the variance in depth, but I think that is operator related.

Length of nail adjustment is hokey

likes to be well oiled

Perhaps the joke is on you, my friend: I've gotten many good tools there
which were well worth what I paid for them, sometimes a couple of times
more.

Good for what? Filling unused space in your garbage can......

Tools from that place and places like it are made for people that
rarely use them, like job blow average homeowner who wants to build a
dog house or change the sparkplug and oil on his lawn mower.

Same can be said of a firearm for self-defense. It only has to work once.
