Hoteche 18GA 2-in-1 Electric Brad Nailer/Stapler 19/32-Inch to 1-1/4 Inch Staple Gun Power Adjustable Nail Gun with 2000Pcs Brad Nails& Staples for Home Upholstery and Woodworking

So far so good. I used it with 1" brad nails into 1/2" cedar panelling to a stud. Powerful, almost sinks nail entirely, just used a nail set to finish. Perfect with the colored nails, too, making the project look good and it is easy to use and load. Recommended for the do it yourselfer.

Excelente clavadora y engrapadora, superó mis expectativas, use clavos de 1", 5/8" y 3/8" y grapas de 5/8" que tra incluidas; en pino duro (un fragmento cercano a los nudos de la madera, como se muestra en la foto) y los clavó al ras sin mayor problema ni esfuerzo, con el selector de potencia a la mitad de su capacidad; es decir, con una reserva del restante 50%. Algo que me gustó mucho es que funcionó muy bien con clavos Truper calibre 18 (que cuestan de entre una quinta a una décima parte de marcas como Arrow y otras importadas) lo que hace muy costeable la herramienta. Es idéntica a otra marca Arrowque también compré en Amazon; pero considero que la Hoteche tiene más potencia, según lo percibí (inclusive los impactos se escuchan un poco más fuerte). La Arrow solo es clavadora y cuesta alrededor de $300 más, pero viene en un estuche de plástico muy bonito y robusto. Así que será cuestión de necesidades o preferencia por una marca tradicional u otra relativamente nueva (por mi parte conservaré ambas; para distintos tamaños de clavos y no tener que estar cambiándolos constantemente) Nota: las grapas que usa son tipo tapicería con corona de 5.7 mm y patas largas de 5/8" a 1", no es compatible con grapas T50 ni similares (con corona de 3/8") que son las que utilizan la mayoría de engrapadoras manuales y electricas. Llegó antes de lo ofrecido y en perfectas condiciones. Sí la recomiendo.

Was slightly concerned due to the reviews saying that this nailer does not get the nails flush, which if you’re trying to use this as a high powered air nailer it’s true, however, if you push the tip of the nailer firmly against the material you’re trying to nail it should be completely flush. It took me a little bit of testing on some cedar fence pickets before I got the hang of it! If you work with mostly hard woods this might not be the best for you but for me, I mainly work with pine and cedar so it should work perfectly for me!

This is one awesome nailer. Well balanced and grips easily. Made very sturdy should outlive me. Very heavy duty body. Works great with staples and nails. The best is using the one inch nails. It's the only nailer I could find that can do one inch nails. All the others, the best they can do is 3/8 inch. Great product. Highly recommend it. Great company to deal with. When it was delivered, the box was badly damaged. Looks like the UPS children had a soccer game with it. All the nails that came with it were all broken to little pieces. I contacted Hoteche and explained what happened. They send me replacement nails. Very nice of them to do that. But the nailer is awesome. Made very solid and works great. Good job Hoteche on a fabulous over the top product. It does "One Inch" nails folks.

The longest nail it can hold is 1 1/4 inch so it limits the capacity to complete certain projects. I’ve installed some baseboards in my basement nails not quite long enough but it gets the job done. Hold with two hands and apply pressure and use the right extension cord helps to drive the nail as deep as it can possibly go.
