 Good deal November 25, 2008
The product came with paint missing (not having stuck) on the housing in small areas during the painting process. Other than that, I belive the nailer was brand new - never used. It did the job for me and I saved a ton. Who cares what it looks like?
 Good, but not for everybody. November 21, 2008
If you don't have the money for a pneumatic nailer, this is the way to go. I bought my tool new, but I've purchased reconditioned tools from Amazon and been very satisfied with the tool and the price. Far cheaper than renting (unless you have a very small job), and if your local rental place has a well-used tool this will work far better. One caveat: you have to be able to hit this thing HARD for it to work. Think about it- you're driving a spike flush with only one blow. That requires a certain amount of accuracy and a fair amount of force. And you have to be able to do it over, and over, and over ..... and over! Out in the open floor it's not bad, but working in close quarters or at a funny angle can be a challenge. And trying to hammer in a partly sunk asymetrical spike can be a nightmare. So, if you have some experience, a fair amount of upper body strength, and a willingness to break a sweat this is your tool. The rest of you may want to consider the merits of a pneumatic tool, or professional installation.
Bostitch flooring nailer October 18, 2008
The tool is exactly as described in A-1 condition. I've used it for several hours and it performs as expected. The shipping was to take five days and it took four days to arrive. I've trained several volunteers in the use of the flooring nailer and we are replacing two levels of flooring at our historical site, Motor Mill, faster than I expected.
Thanks, JdN
 Didn't work for me at all October 6, 2008

It was a complete waste of money for me. I couldn't drive a single nail fully using this nailer. No matter how hard I hit with the mallet, it never sets the nail in completely.
After trying it for couple of hours, decided to give up. I ended up renting a pneumatic nailer and compressor from the local rental place and that worked like a charm and was able to finish my floor installation very quickly.
I thought I was getting a bargain, but ended up with a $100 tool which doesn't work. I don't think I can return it, since it is past 30 days period.
Update (10/10): Customer service contacted me and let return the tool for full refund(even though it is past 30 days). Very impressed with the customer service quality.
it works, it is hard work September 7, 2008
It is hard work, those professional guys make it look fast and easy, but I could not have put in my new floors without it. It looked like brand new when I got it even though it was "re-conditioned".....it's great.
