This was a refurbished item but it hardly looked like it. It looked new and came exactly as advertised. Worked with batteries I already had and it makes an excellent addition to my tools. Price was excellent.

Works great for a DIY or home project. Make sure you press all the way up against the wall and hold there for best resultsFairly simple to use

I use a table saw to build small and medium wood items like shelves and tables, and then usually a brad nailer (18 gauge brads) to fasten pieces quickly. Brads are not structurally competitive with screws, but have similar shear strength to nails. For many years, I used a pneumatic 18 gauge brad nailer connected to a cheap oil-less pancake compressor. The pneumatic tool is connected to an air hose that limits its movement, and oil-less compressors make a lot of noise. The only drawback of this cordless tool is that it goes through batteries relatively quickly. I find that Ryobi OEM 18v 4aH batteries are good for about 200 2 inch brads sunk flush, so I keep one battery on the charger to rotate with the battery in use. The tool is otherwise equally sturdy and adjustable, and about the same weight, as the pneumatic equivalent. Glad I made the switch. The cordless can go wherever it is needed without having to reposition the air hose. the noise of the brad being set into the wood is minor compared to compressor noise. Unlike the pneumatic tool, there is no simultaneous discharge of a burst of air. The Ryobi design is also commendable in allowing quick removal of the occasionally mis-fed brad. Be sure to take the battery off before opening the mechanism. Finally, I found some youtube videos with excellent tips on how to avoid blowouts and improper depth sets, specifically as to this tool.

Purchased refurbished, and unfortunately only dispensed about a dozen nails before it failed. Either won't dispense at all, jams, or nails only insert about halfway.
