Product great as expected from Milwaukee [Posted on 2008-01-23] This nailer has proven all of its claims in its description. It's a finish nailer so it isn't meant for such strong fastening as framing and roofing. I used it for installing moulding in my kitchen and it worked exactly as it should have.
Good value [Posted on 2008-01-28] I paid under $80 for this finish nailer and got a great addition to my box of tools. As a small person, I require all my tools to deliver dependable power without overwhelming bulk. This nailer works fine as long as you keep it loaded. While remodeling a vintage home, it tacked interior floor moulding, secured fascia, and was a real treat to use while installing trim between the siding and eves. The non-mar tip allowed careful placement of the nails without the hassle of hand nailing (over hedges while balancing on a ladder). Even when attached to a 50' air hose, it wasn't too awkward or heavy and hooked easily onto my toolbelt. Wish I'd bought one sooner! Every time another 10'section of 1/4 round went up, my arms and hands were ever so thankful.
a great Milwaukee nailer [Posted on 2008-02-13] found no flaws with this fine tool
did find some suberb positives ---- quiet, powerful, lightweight, and easy to use
one of the best nailers I have used AND, due to the wide array of usable lengths of 16ga finish nails it has allowed me to replace two guns with this single one
Straight Finish Nailer - Light weight , heavy hiter 3/4" to 2 1/2" [Posted on 2008-06-09] The Milwaukee 7145-21 is a Straight Finish Nailer that is light-weight but a heavy hitter as far as performance. Easy to load and adjust for depth.
Decent case and safety gogles were included. It did not have the coupler fitting though so I had to go pick one up (so I got three just in case the next tool I buy has it missing too) as I needed to use the nailer upon arrival. Keep in mind that if you need to use this in tight spaces (you will if you do Crown or Base Molding) the angled model would be better suited. Not too heavy, good price and I would indeed replace it if it were stolen. I hope that it is as reliable as I expect it will be.
Good, but countersink may be weak. [Posted on 2008-06-30] Can't beat the price (my primary reason for purchase) so I'm generally happy with the gun. Not the best countersinking though. When Shooting 1 1/2 nails through 3/4 maple framing into plywood, I found I have to apply firm pressure against the piece when I fire the gun to get it to countersink at all. Still end up going back over with a punch and hammer to get it deep enough for my linking. But I may be overdoing it. Weekend do-it-youselfer not a pro. I personally like the brand and would purchase more.
