Porter-Cable CFNBNS Three Nailer and Compressor Combo Kit

Thank you for this product. It serves my purpose well. Your staff, who handle problems, are very helpful and polite. Their conduct and efficiency invites me to utilize Amazon.com for all my purchases. Thank you.

I bought this combo. seemed a good deal. the compressor is a different model than the one sold separately and it is much cheaper build. I used it for nailing , texture walls (knockdown) , spray painting.
1. for nails it was ok if you don't have too many in a row otherwise expect delays.
2. I texture some office walls and it was ok but i had to wait after it not too long. - one wall at a time.
3. After that I used it for spray painting and this was the end of it.
the compressor started to make a noise like something was broken inside, then it didn't hold 120 psi just 100 psi and finally it started to loose air from where the pump is.

I know and I was aware that you shouldn't use this compressor for more than (i believe) 40minutes in one hour and I didn't.

The compressor broke down completely after 5 day of use. If you have your own bigger better compressor the guns I guess are ok.
I still think you could buy just the guns an forget about this compressor. (it's for very light duty use)

I do not recommend the compressor - it's to cheap build and it will break when you need a little more from it.

I have used the Brad and Finish nailer on 2 small projects around the house. They seem to work great although they won't use longer lengths I have found them to be easy and accurate. HOWEVER, I have had the compressor in use only 6 or 8 times mostly blowing off dusty clothes after a project and it is now leaking. I am so pi..... Now I have to make a trip to get it fixed or mail it at my own cost per the warranty. I had hoped to make a tool buying switch to Porter Cable after hearing of their good tools. That is doubtful given the current taste in my mouth.

The compressor does seem loud but I have no real reference point of comparison except jackhammers but that's not fair.

Portability is somewhat limited. The pancake style of this unit is a little robust to carry easily for any distance, but it is portable. And, due to the weight the valve or connection between the tank and compressor seem to stretch or give each time I pick it up, worrying me about its longevity.

Spend your money on another model. I am going to get one that is more square in over all shape, takes up less space, and hopefully will be dependable for years instead of approx. 5 hours of work.
