I recently purchased a Grip-Rite GRTMP16 16d Mini Air Nailer and am very pleased with its performance. It's very well build despite its compact size. I needed to finish a wooden patio cover and I opted to use this nailer instead of purchasing a more expensive nail gun. When set to around 110 psi, it drove 3 1/2" 16d nails in all the way within about one second or less. It worked perfectly and no air leaks as have been previouly reported. If you just want to do an occasional project like building a tool shed, this is probably the only nailer you will ever need. It also works well for toenailing just as long as is you start the nail in with a hammer first. However, I wouldn't use it on anything but a headed nail, and certainly would not recommend it for finish work -For that you will need a nail gun. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this product and highly recommend it.

I bought this mini-nailer just in case I might need it someday. . .Not sure why I bought this one over the Senco, but it seems to do the job of driving nails in very tight places. As with other reviewers, mine leaked air right out of the box. This was disappointing to say the least. I backed off the hex bolts and re-tightened, and it now works fine. Still, you have to wonder about the quality control on the other side of the Pacific Ocean. Nonetheless, it does drive nails, both small and large, and pretty quickly too. Fairly smooth action given its size. Quite noisy, but that's expected. Air consumption within normal limits. A carry/protective case would have been appreciated. Cost is very reasonable. Hope it lasts!

I am putting in new deck hangers and use this tool to hammer the old nails flush into the wood. I could not have done that with a hammer! Great tool and low price.

This thing works very well. Takes all the hard work out of hammering and it even works well on large brad nails for trim. You just drop a couple of drops of the oil they provided in the air connector before use and it keeps on nailing! Would highly recommend this nailer!

I own a Ridgid full size palm nailer and bought the Grip-Rite Mini nailer because I had to work in some spaces where the full size nailer wouldn't fit. My Ridgid drives all kind of nails, big or small, quickly and surely, but the Ridgid's size is a limitation just like a regular hammer. So, enter the Grip-Rite Mini. It does work, fairly well, on big nails and gets into places the big nailer will not.My Grip-Rite leaked air, right out of the box, requiring tightening of 3 of the 4 cap screws to get it to stop. After fixing that, it worked fine, within its limitations. Contrary to what the company material says, the Grip-Rite Mini won't drive 16d nails well, if at all. The heads on 16d bright common nails are too large to go into the nose piece (impact socket). The opening in the nose piece is just slightly smaller than the average diameter of those nail heads found in a box of Grip-Rite 16d 3 1/2" bright common nails. Since the Mini wouldn't accept and drive their own common nails, I switched to 16d 3 1/2" finish nails for the spots I needed to use the Mini nailer. The shanks are smaller on the finish nails than on the common nails and still, the Mini nailer had difficulty driving them fully.As a side note, I also own the which won't accept the big nail heads on the 16d common nails either, which was why I bought the Grip Rite Mini. Senco's manual tells you that their mini nailer has a head limitation and won't accept anything larger than .339" and the Grip Rite Mini manual states a head limitation size of 5/16 or .311". (The moral to that story is that I should have gone to Grip-Rite's site and downloaded the manual, instead of only reading the sales hype before buying the nailer.)Measuring several 16d bright common heads revealed an average head size of well over .350". Measuring the heads on a dozen 12d 3 1/8" coated sinkers gave an average of over .330", but all of them easily fit into the opening of the Grip Rite Mini nose piece, which actually measured .350" on my unit.In short, either Mini nailer is nice to have around, to complement a full size palm nailer. If you're wanting a palm nailer that simply works well on anything you want to throw at it, my advice would be to buy a full size nailer, like the or the , instead of the Mini. The difference in power and ease of use is well worth the extra money for a full sized palm nailer, in my opinion.

At first I was quite doubtful if this thing works. First of all, the brand is not quite familiar and secondly, sorry to say but I'm not a "made in Taiwan" fanatic. However, the only reason that drives me to buy this item are the reviews I've read. And YES indeed it's REAL!My hand is not that big and this tool is perfectly right for me. The grip is easy and convinient and the weight is awesomely LIGHT! Though this thing is small, The power is HUGE! It could drive a 6 inch nail on a 2x4 Lumber so easy as long as the head fits its bore. so pwerful that I used this thing in building my fence instead of my nail gun. I preferred to used this Toy than the bostitch palm nailer due to its weight and nailing pressure. You don't need to press this little monster too deep in order to drive a nail unlike bostitch. the power is pretty much the same and the convinience is extremely an advantage compared to my muscle building framing nailer.Overall, I highly recommend this product to anyone who loves carpentry and woodwoking. I'm not a PRO but this Toy makes me look like one!Everyone is different. people have varied views and opinion. But the only way I could prove to you that my review is true and real is if you buy this product...pretty much you won't regret!
