I purchased one of these last year, and it works like a dream, no issues. Just needs some thought around how to use it.
-
I've the workzone version..had it 3 years completely replaced my air compressor gun... It's fantastic never let me down yet
-
Unlike your other reviews of Aldi’s tools this one has the battery and charger I would be interested in getting one as the price is reasonable so thanks for the video review

I've had a VonHaus equivalent for six or seven years now - same nail gun just a different colour. Used in diy so not heavy use. Never had any issues with it and eliminates the need for my compressor to power my air nailer. On a big job I'd use the air nailer as it is lighter to use 😀 but has the air hose to get in the way 🙁.

Hi David. I got one about 6 months ago. Yes you have to play about with it to get use to it. But for what you pay for its a good buy. Glad you told us you can get nails from other suppliers as I've ran out of nails. Cheers David. Top man.

Thank you for your help i will share them as well to some friends.i enjoyed your instructions.
-
I bought the drill along with the nailer, both came with the same battery and a charger so which ever tool I'm using I've got a spare battery charged or on charge. 👍 😎

Great review and thanks for your input about this Ferrex Unit.

Thanks for a good detailed review and demo.

Good unboxing and review mate, will be interesting to see what you think in a few months 👍
-
I followed the instructions and it is working perfect.

Hi, nice review. I have the air powered nail guns from Aldi and they are very good. Used them to build my 22ft x 11ft workshop in 2005. No complaints then and none now as it is still standing. TBH I didn't know Aldi did a battery powered nail gun, I will have to look into this as it would be invaluable at the allotment where I don't have main power. Cheers, Norm.

Best review on this Ferrex nail gun, that I've seen.

Thankyou for your detail review, as a home DIY person and a compulsive Aldi customer it was very helpful to know what I’m buying. It was great to know the capability of the gun ( impossible to test ) before the purchase. Would be great if you can do similar testing on all their home DIY tools.

Good review mate, I did look at these before I decided to import a metabo from the USA. For the money its a bargain. Even the metabo sometimes leaves 2 inch brads proud in thick hardwoods.
-
I bought one last year. It’s brilliant. Done architraves and fencing.
-
I wish he had told the overall weight, and balance of the unit. I heard a few years ago that if you could get nails made in America that you don't get as much jamming. I been thinking about getting one for some time now. Thanks for the video.

I've had mine for about 4 years or more and it's been absolutely great. Its cheap but it's the same components as other more expensive brands just in a different plastic casing. I use mine alot and in the beginning I had a good few jams but not for awhile has it jammed on me. If it does jam its an easy fix anyway. I would highly recommend this gun it will definitely get you out of bind and easily make money back on time saved messing around trying to hammer little panel pins..
