[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2006-11-09 Summary: Great Value ... Item was well worth purchase price. In great mechanical shape, casing had some dings and scrapes but nothing major. Functioned well, no jams, even was nailing good when I forgot to plug in the air compressor and pressure fell below its rating. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2006-11-09 Summary: Excellent nailer, but no case ... I guess I missed the part where the factory-reconditioned nailer didn't come with the incredibly handy Porter-Cable case. For now, I'm storing it in the box it came in when it's not in use. For me it was worth the $50 or so I saved, but I wish I would have realized it before I bought it. The nailer itself was everythinig I expected with no signs of use or wear. It functions just like every other Porter-Cable nailer I have, which is to say that it has never jammed or gaven me any problems whatsoever. ...more
[4] Rating: 4 Date: 2006-11-17 Summary: Very good for the price - with some drawbacks ... I had used a friend's Bostitch coil nailler several times in the past. It was finally time to buy one of my own. I have always been a fan of Porter-Cable tools. The fantastic price offered by Amazon on this refurb was too much to resist. I unboxed my nailer to find it in almost new condition; one slight scuff mark. i was suprised to find it much smaller and lighter than the Bostitch I had used before. I had ordered a RN175AR but received a RN175A. I have no idea of the difference between these 2 models. Part 1 A couple ...more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2007-06-19 Summary: Using to nail cement board siding ... Was lucky enought to get a new one (i.e. not reconditioned) on Amazon in early June which was being clearanced for just $160 (even had free shipping!). I'm using it on a small project to put cement board siding on my garage. I've experienced some of the issues with having to finish some nails with hand-nailing, but I'm driving the max length 1-3/4" through a layer of cement. Seems to be less of an issue when well lubricated, but still occurs. Definately works better than the alternative of pre-drilling and hand-nailing. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2007-07-07 Summary: Great roof nailer for the price ... Tool showed up the day before it was scheduled for delivery. Cool! I've ordered refurbished Porter-Cable nail guns before and all have worked flawlessly. Only downside with this one is that it did not come with a case. The other two I've ordered (from different vendors on Amazon) both came with plastic cases. This one was wrapped in bubble wrap. It did have the small bottle of oil with it. So far, no jams or problems, used on one roof. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-09-26 Summary: Exceptional Roofing Nailer ... I purchased this nail gun based on my previous experience with the quality of Porter-Cable pneumatic tools. Aside from this one I own 4 other Porter-Cable nail guns, I have been very satisfied with all of them. This nailer is no disappointment. In the time I have owned it I have used it for installing asphalt shingles, tar paper, aluminum drip end, vinyl siding, and vinyl trim pieces. It has performed very well in all instances. It has ample power to drive 1.75" nails flush while performing roofing applications. The ...more

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-13 Summary: great value ... I have been using this daily for a month now to re-roof my 100 year old house with no complaints. The nails are perfectly driven into the old deck with about 90 psi, so I have not experienced the same short-drive concern of some other posters. Especially given the great price on the refurbished unit, which arrived in pristine condition, I can't think of any way to improve this experience. ...more

[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2006-04-04 Summary: Excellent nailer, but........... ... Like the reviewer below, I have found all previous orders of reconditioned tools from Amazon to result in the acquisition of a new/near new tool. That was the case with a PC FC350 framing nailer I ordered from them at the same time I ordered this roofing nailer. The framer was new in every respect, so I was eager to open the roofer. When I did, I found a tool that had lived life to the fullest, and gotten more than its share of bumps and scrapes along the way. While it functioned well, it was clearly a well used gun, ...more
