Bostitch SX1838K Review by Jennifer R. Scott "Jen Scott" (Raleigh, NC)
History:
I've been in the building trade all my life and have extensive experience with most tools.
Review:
This is a great stapler. Quick change trigger, quick turn depth gauge, and hook to hold it on your belt while working. It even has a built in pencil sharpener- funny, but helpful.
Bostitch SX1838K Review by James Larsen
Pros:
1. oil-free
2. swivel air fitting
3. light
Cons:
1. Odd size 7/32 staple. For me, SS was important for outdoor projects, so limited choices vice 1/4" crown staples.
2. Trigger safety is awkward. Although this is partly due to the 2 function trigger. I always think safeties should be color-coded.
Wish List: I like depth setting wheels, but they ought to be indexed.
Bostitch SX1838K Review by Rocky Top
Purchased to install the door trim and molding in my new house. This gun seems well made and has some nice features including a nice safety feature; I like the case it came in. However; it jammed within the first 100 nails I shot and has jammed four times since; I have about 300 nails through it so far. When this little gun jams; better find a nice comfortable place to sit down with a hand full of tools and be ready to spend 6-10 mins fussing around with trying to remove the jammed nail. Wow those nails are sure wedged in there thats for sure.
About 60% of the time it shoots a spark and a nail; presumably from the nail exiting the gun? Not sure exactly here; my 16 guage brad nailer does the same thing (same make of gun)...it has had no jamming issues.
I like the trigger, shot selector, safety, pencil sharpener, tool case, allen wrench handle, weight, color, ect...but the persistent jamming forces a two star rating. Would not recommend this product to a friend or neighbor...passload may be better.
I'll say that this 18 guage nailer is excellent for making cabinets and drawers; nice small nail holes easily fillable with paint or putty; or even nothing in some applications. Droves a 2" nail no problem.
