In the past, I have always been a fan of the Makita brand.
As long as they are around, I haven’t had to deal with “quality fade.”
Besides, I bought this to replace my old Porter Cable BN200a, which stopped working when a piece of plastic, yes, plastic, cylinder ring fell off and broke.
I put 2 inch senco (sp?) nails into the Makita (the same compressor) when I got there to see what it looked like.
In contrast, this one hides the heads and I don’t need to finish nail with a hammer.
As compared to the reviews I’ve seen for other nailers (Dewalt and PC), the ones for the Makita are the most positive, even my own.
