Hoteche Power Brad Nailer P802208A

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!

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.

The nailer is much heavier than I expected. The casing seems solid, the slide to insert the brads works well. The instructions are good, although how they are set up could be more user friendly. I got this for replacing pickets on a fence. I am using the brad nailer for placement then will go back and use screws, making it an easier one person job. The nailer puts the brads all the way in when I press fairly hard. A little is left out if I don't. Just a learning curve. For my purpose this is just what I needed.

This tool would only work occasionally. Get a few small nails in and then it just wouldn't respond when pulling the trigger. After a while it might decide to work again.....or it might not, depending on what mood the tool was in. For sure it couldn't possibly get overheated within 5-10 small nails going into pine. Also didn't sink nails or staples well into soft wood at even the highest setting. Had to go back and re-nail everything. I'll be returning this. Not impressed.

I used it but the nail does not go in completely. I have to used hammer to finally finish it. Product is OK but does not meet expectations.

Lots of capabilities, takes the 32mm ( 1 1/4 “ ). Drives them right. It’s not for construction of course, but for my small shop it’s perfect. Works as advertised not bait and switch. I needed a nailer not just a stapler. It has them too. Good deal. I’m happy.

I read all the reviews and was able to get it to work a little bit. Still not worth it though, most of the nails ended up not going through and took me even more time to fix, this would be fine as a stapler for art and craft but not much else.

Es práctica y eficiente. No esperaba que fuera tan robusta ,,, la recomiendo

Muy funcional y resistente. Funciona bien con 110V. Mi única observación es que todos los clavos llegaron regados y separados, no estaban bien empaquetados.

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.

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.

Resulta muy práctica ya que no requiere de compresor de aire ni mangueras. Versátil porque puede trabajar tanto con clavos como con grapas. La he utilizado un par de veces para clavar melamina de 15 mm, ha funcionado bastante bien, solo un par de veces los clavos no se insertaron del todo, pero creo que fue más por no haberla posicionado correctamente. La seguiré utilizando esperando que con la práctica en el uso de esta herramienta, mejore el resultado. Le doy 4 estrellas porque al momento de accionarla se percibe en los focos el “jalón” momentáneo de corriente. De ahí en fuera, todo bien.

I got this because I didn’t want to spend $200–$300+ to replace my cordless brad nailer. I’ve only tested it for about a day, so I’m not sure how long it will last, but so far it seems to work fine. Don’t expect it to fully sink 32mm nails every time—it won’t. I often had to use a nail set and hammer when working with harder materials. If that’s a deal-breaker for you, then this product isn’t for you. But given the price, I think it’s a decent piece of equipment.
