Product: Max SN883RH Amazon Price: Too low to display Availability: In Stock |
I have used several framing nailers: stanley, passlode, hitachi, senco, and by far this one is the best. It is very light and compact. You don’t have the burden of carrying around a large heavy tool. I haven’t had any problem with jamming, and it takes standard 21 degree full head nails. It will fit into tight spots that other nail guns can’t. I wouldn’t buy any other nailer.
This nailer rocks. It’s really powerful, remarkably compact, the lightest framer out there, and has virtually no kickback. Hard to believe. Someone did some amazing engineering on this one. Tools of the Trade.com recenlty rated it their number one pick out of 20 framers including guns from Senco, Hitachi, Bostich, Porter-Cable, Makita, Dewalt and others. Here’s the link,

I also tried the bigger Max nailer (SNN890RH) for comparison. The SNN890RH was FineHomeBuilding’s number one pick a few years ago, but the test was done before this new one came out. The SNN890RH has even more power and will shoot 3 1/2″ nails, but the trade off is it’s heavier, bulkier, has a significant kickback and sometimes will double fire even with the anti-double-fire trigger.
The reviews(from the manufacturer) stated that it would sink nails into engineered lumber. It does not do so consistantly. It is small enough to get into tight spaces. Overall a good nailer.
