Flooring Nailer Recommendation?

[Bill Chang]

I've got a few jobs coming up that will require I buy a pneumatic floor nailer.  Mostly doing hardwood type flooring.

I am just starting the research but wanted to get some recommendation on a good quality nailer that will hold up to hard use.

Some quick google search and I came up with:  Senco, Porter-Cable.

Not looking for Harbor-Freight type but want good quality equipment.

Appreciate your recommendations!

I've got the standard big yellow Bostitch and have been using it for years with no problems. I also have the standard non-air nailer that still comes in handy sometimes. Every floor guy around here seems to use the Bostitch. Can't say I've even seen any others.

We use Primatech with L cleats, Power nail is also a reliable gun.  Both are great and used by many professionals.  The great benifit to the Primatech P250 is that it can get closer to walls during installs.

I have a few.  My favorite and the nicest to use is the power nail flex.  I have the full roller system on it.  It's great, never Lift the nailer off the ground till your done with the row.  Little pricey.  But what good tool isn't....
