M18 FUEL 18 V Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 18 Gauge Brad Nailer - Tool Only

The M18 FUEL™ 18 Gauge Brad Nailer has been nothing short of amazing in my woodworking projects. The setup was incredibly simple, allowing me to get started right away without any hassle. Its user-friendly design makes it easy to handle, even for those who may not be seasoned professionals. The tool's intuitive features, like the tool-free depth adjustment and quick-load magazine, streamline the nail-driving process. I appreciate how effortlessly it drives nails into various materials, providing clean and precise results every time. This brad nailer exceeded my expectations with its ease of use and outstanding performance. Highly recommend it!

Men, check more off your honey-do list with this tool. I finally bit the bullet and purchased the one thing that will help me procrastinate less. I've had it for a few days now and all my baseboards and trim are finally up in the house. Who doesn't hate pulling out the air compressor and hose? I had done enough research on the two main colours, and even tried the yellow tool for a while with decent success. The Milwaukee seems to have a finess that the other does not - easier to handle, maneuver, and load. I appreciate the convenience of the depth gauge. Loading nails seems to be a smooth process. Overall, I'm very happy I purchased the red one.

This is extremely well built and works great. If you’ve ever used a cheap no name brad nailer and then move to this as I did you will see a huge difference in quality, accuracy, ease of use and in this case expected longevity. The depth gauge works perfectly if you take the time to adjust it on some scraps based on wood, brad length, etc then you will get perfectly set brads every time. All my cordless tools are Milwaukee so I am married to the brand but it’s also comforting to know that when I do buy another cordless Milwaukee tool it will be of excellent quality and reliability. In short - you get what you pay for, so pay for Milwaukee.

The best cordless nail gun ever!! It never misses a beat or sinking a nail. It’s consistent, meaning once the depth adjustment is set for the type of wood the nail will be shooting into, I never experience a proud nail. I’m a trim carpenter specializing in window framing and casing. The current new home I’m working in has 50 windows , That’s approximately 50-100 nails per window. I never experience a proud nail…never. It lays nails down as fast as I pull the trigger. While my compadres are messing with power and cords, I’m 100% mobile. This is an awesome nailer! Along with the M12 23 Gauge Pin Nailer I’m super productive!

This nailer is a must for any carpenter. I’ve been using this for a few days now and it’s met and exceeded my expectations. With the right depth calibration, this things sinks nails without issue into any hardwood I’ve dealt with. The zero ramp up time is also a huge benefit. I switched over from the dewault 18 gauge nailer and there were a number of times where I would have the nose pressed down but ran out of time to press the trigger. Not an issue with the Milwaukee. This thing is also excellent on battery life. I’ve gone a whole day doing trim on a 2 a/h battery. Only issue I’ve had is that it doesn’t like certain brad nails and will jam using them.

I purchased this recently to replace my old Freeman brand nailer. I wanted it as it is much smaller than the other brands out there and has a ton of excellent reviews. So far, it's been great. leaves tiny holes, easy to see exactly where the nail is going to go. I haven't had the opportunity to use it a lot yet, but from what I've seen so far it's an excellent addition to my tool aresnal. Being a Milwaukee tool, I'm sure it'll last a long time. Cordless nail guns as a rule are fairly expensive, and this one is not really much more than any other good quality brands and it seems like this one is well worth the price.

The Bad: The whole ordeal with this nailer started out bad. Picked the tool up from the store and was excited for my first big trim job. Nail jammed on almost every 5th nail, virtual unusable. On top of that the nailer would also randomly fire blanks. The Good: Took the tool back and exchanged it for the exact same model. New unit worked amazing and way better than I had ever expected. Only downfall I have is that the nailer registers as empty with 4 nails in the chamber. Which to me is still better than firing one wonky last nail that I would get out of my air or firing blanks without knowing it.

I was pumped when I first heard about this nailer and couldn’t wait to get one. I’ve use the senco finish nailer for years and the Milwaukee works in the same manor, so with most of my battery and tools being Milwaukee I had to switch. The problem I have is getting the nail striker to retract enough to strike 2” finishing nails. I have to pull the battery off while I’m firing to trick the nailer in thinking it’s got a dead battery. This leaves the striker extended and then I can do the reset. I’m finding I have to do this about once every strip of nails. I can’t find any Trouble shoots for this issue.
