Tools and Hardware Reviews of DEWALT D51275K 1-1/4-Inch to 2-1/2-Inch 15-Gauge Angled Finish Nailer KitCustomer Review: Outstanding trim nailer... Summary: 5 Stars
I have used the D51275K finish nailer for a couple of years now on crown and base; casement; and have had no problems with it (or its Dewalt companion 18ga 51238K brad nailer, also excellent). It gets intensive use during trim-out phases and I have had only two jams that I can recall (neither one was the guns fault). The tools-free access to the firing head had the nails cleared quickly. The adjustable exhaust flow is a real plus, as is the the ease of depth adjustment. The gun loads easily and I have had no trouble at all finding nails for it. I have been able to locate all lengths in small to large lots on Amazon's web site. I have had virtually trouble-free operation, so I am at a real loss to explain the 'uneven' reviews from users! Perhaps some of the users need to read the manual of operation a little more closely? Perhaps some are using a different angle nail strip than spec'd? Perhaps the factory had a quality control problem for a while?? So far, I have not had any problems nailing even hardwood trims such as oak, but then, most of the trim has been with softwoods and compressed foam/synthetic products.
This nailer's light weight means less operator fatigue and more production. As an aside, the Dewalt (D51238K) 18ga brad nailer is perfect for smaller 'build-up' mouldings like cove, quarter rounds, etc. I have never experienced a single jam with the 18ga. although, admittedly, it doesn't get as intensive use as the 15ga.
Note: I purchased 'Grizzly's #H3401 Nail Gun Carrying Bag' from Amazons third-party vendor Grizzly. It is designed to carry framing nailers but notes that it will carry a couple of finish nailers. My Dewalt 15GA and 18GA finish nailers fit fine; the adjustable straps at the bottom of the bag secure the nailers tightly. The bag has hand-carrying handles and also a shoulder strap. I doubled over a large piece of cardboard to slip between the nailers to protect them from rubbing and banging against each other. Its a great way to transport and protect your nailers; both in one bag. Check it out.
