Advice on buying a compressor/nailer

[Sawdust]

I spotted this:

in the screwfix catalogue and on paper it looks like a good deal.

Has anyone had any experience of this machine.

Many thanks

I don't have the Rexon kit but a compressor/nailer combo is always useful. You didn't say whether portability is essential for you, if not a bigger compressor would be much more versatile. A 50 litre one will supply the air for spraying finishes or running other high demand air tools like sanders or grinders. Another point to note is that combined nailer/staplers will leave a mark the size of a staple crown whether you drive a brad or a staple so if you want to face nail mouldings or other trim a dedicated brad nailer or pinner is a better bet.

I use this but the gun piston failed just out of guarantee mind you that's been replaced by the one at aldi for £14 :shock: (3 year warranty) and its just the same ...
The price has just increased on this I see but it is really portable and takes up to 50mm pins / 40mm staples
