This is one of my everyday ladders. It has done everything I've asked of it. The molded in extras on the top are actually usefull. I find the big lug bungee ball holders particularly handy for holding impact drivers and drills. I do miss the shelf found on other ladders, Werner does offer it, as an option.

I was always a little leary of spending the big bucks they want for this ladder, thinking it was overly gimmicky infomercial rip off. I had a chance to work with a borrowed one and wasn't really impressed. When my local big orange retail giant discontinued them, they had the display model really cheap, I just had to pick it up. This ladder has grown on me. It collapse into a short package hardly larger than a 4 ft. step ladder, and fully open it is either an 17 ft. straight or a 7 ft. step.
It works on steps and in stair wells great.
The only thing that I really don't care for is the weight.

My go to cord. Nice and flexible, even when cold. Doesn't twist easily and lays flat.Lighted end is a nice addition, making it easy to tell when the cord is hot.The lighted end burns out before the cord wears out. Clear ends can become foggy with age.
These cord do cost more.

I would love to like this nailer, but I find it difficult. It is well balanced and very comfortable to use. It is sensitive as to what brands of nails it works with. If you don't feed it the nails it like, expect a lot of jams. Hitachi and Bostitch (wire collation seems to work better) are the only nails that I found to work consistently.
This nailer does not like lower air pressures with long nails, especially ring shanks, I have to reset my compressor to cycle when it gets down to 100 psi. and deal with the more frequent cycling.
This nailer only comes set up for bump firing. I would prefer a lever to switch between modes.
Unless you REALLY have to shoot the shortest nails I would recommend getting the Hitachi
NV75AG or Makita AN611

This is one of those tools that you can always count on. Built like a tank. A little on the heavy side compared to some of the more modern plastic fantastic guns, but you don't notice it once you pick it up and work it a while. This is not a plastic gun.
It is well balanced and comfortable to work with. Jams are a very rare occurrence, but when they do happen they can be a pain to clear. I would prefer a lever to switch from bump to sequential fire rather than the ring under the trigger, But the ring does work OK. This guns magazine does not really care for 8's, the ends of the racks tend to jam together causing misfires and jams. I prefer a coil nailer for the lighter stuff anyhow, so it is not really a problem for me.

I use mine for doing estimates, which it is the absolute greatest thing at. Just stand in one corner of a room and shoot the length and width in about ten seconds flat. Takes longer to move yourself, than to take the measurement.
I guess I'm to old school to really trust this. I've yet to commit a cut solely on the measurement I've gotten from this. I don't really like to use a ruler either, unless I have to.

This knife fits in my hand like it was meant to be there. Most knives develop a loose nose after some hard work, not this one, it has a one piece nose. It is super simple to change blades, and the case pops open easily to retrieve fresh blades.
What were they thinking painting this thing white? Quickly shows dirt.

This is not a tool that I own personally, but I've used it regularly as a volunteer.
I think that most compressor manufacturers are optimistic in their CFM rating. Realistically this compressor can power a 3 CFM rated tool. You would think 4 HP would out power an electric twin stack, not with this compressor. That said, If you need to cut down on what your carrying (i.e. not the generator) for some field nailing operations, this compressor will keep a couple of workers happy. It does work excellently in the back of a UATV.
The pump does not really tax the motor so the Honda motor should last a good long time. This thing is heavy, you will not enjoy carrying it. It is my opinion, that unless you need something in this form factor,you would probably be better served with a wheelbarrow style compressor.

This is one sweet nailer. You might think that the dust blower is just a gimmick, it isn't. How many times have you been trimming out a room and had to deal with sawdust/drywall dust or even spiderweb, just where you want to install?
This nailer is very easy to switch between bump and sequential fire, I wish all nailers were this easy to change. Depth is also any easy adjustment.
I don't particularly care for the plastic magazine, although it does function excellently,(the end loading feature is convenient) plastic always seems to be the first thing to break.
This nailer is a little on the heavy side compared to some of the new plastic/magnesium nailers but not really enough to be a bother.

This gun shoots brads flawlessly. Nail heads set well even in hard woods. The gun is easy to load. I've loaded it many times with one hand while holding up some crown molding with the other, (oops, should have been keeping an eye on the load gauge.) This gun has a anti-dry fire feature but leaves a few nails from the last rack, (not good). Sometimes a bit tricky if you are angling your nails because of the safety.
