  • Worked well for a novice
The media could not be loaded. I’m a home owner and an intermediate level do-it-yourselfer. I’m not a pro flooring installer. I purchased the EHF1838K flooring stapler in order to install an engineered hardwood floor (0.5” x 7.5” x 8’) in my home without the need of a pro installer. The stapler was recommended by the flooring manufacturer and the reviews were such that I felt confident it would work for my application. I installed an initial 600 sqft using the recommended staple spacing. There were no misfires, jams and or loosening/misalignment of the tongue engagement jig during the entire project. The tongue engagement jig adjusted quickly and was instrumental for aligning the staple with the flooring groove. It hit solid and square every time. The magazine was easy to load. The stapler responded quickly and accurately to the initial pressure adjustment that was required to dial into the correct staple penetration. After installing the first few rows of flooring, my skill level and confidence had improved to the point where I was able to significantly speed up the stapling rate without running the risk of making mistakes or stapling my big toe to the floor. In conclusion, it performed better than I had anticipated as a novice. The tool worked WITH me instead of against me. I could not identify any flaws in the design or performance. I am confident it will work with the remainder of the house. Whether cliché or not, this tool did save me a significant sum of capital in that I was able to complete a flooring project in my home, on my own, the first time. Buy it. ... show more

  • Also for hardwood floors such as Bruce Natural Selections (see thickness allowed in description)
THIS IS ALSO FOR SOLID HARDWOOD SUCH AS Bruce Natural Selections. It is also for other engineered floor boards. IT IS NOT FOR STANDARD THICK FLOOR BOARDS. It is really hard to figure out what is the right tool with Bostitch. The Bostitch Stapler recommended by Bruce for National Selections 5/16 thick solid hardwood is nearly impossible to get and is more expensive. This stapler take the place of that other one and additionally works for engineered too. I can't find any negatives with this one compared to the one specific one purpose one they mentioned - this one does more. It even comes with 1000 of the 1" staples most use for Natural Selections. This is a precisely made tool, easy to use and setup and used hardly any air to work to boot. It is as right for Bruce Natural Selection as any Bruce recommends in the manual and seem to be the most affordable one. Now there are other brands you can find for $79-108 dollars that people have found suitable for their projects. To me I rather spend a little more to get a better tool that I at least think will give me less trouble. You do get what you pay for. Now it could be the others are just fine, I don't know, and for maybe one project they will be fine. But I like the way this one loads, will stop when staples are getting low so you don't think you shot a staple and you didn't and go on to the next board. It has a trigger lockout, and the air connection swivels. It is also kinda quite which is nice. No super loud staple sound. If you wonder why these staplers are not the kind you bang with a mallet is that flooring such as Natural selections are not banged tight together as they are stapled as they fit together perfectly by design. After I do two rooms I will likely sell it. Still comes out cheaper than renting of having to get and return it, risking getting a beat-up one to use and rushing, even with out selling it. ... show more

  • Quality at a great price.
Has worked great so far. One room down and two to go. Not one jam. Great value for the price.

  • Worked perfectly!
This was the perfect floor stapler for the job. I installed approximately 600 sq ft of engineered hardwood flooring without a single malfunction. The only issue was I occasionally hit the safety button. Other than that, I am very pleased with the purchase.

  • Works great - But get the right staple size
My husband got this for installing new floor at our home. However, he bought the recommended staples that were promoted with it but they were the wrong size and we had to send those back. Oversight on our part as we were going with what was recommended by the listing. Check the details when purchasing the staples. This really increased the productivity of my husband getting the project done. Stapler worked great. ... show more

  • Worked great... cheaper than renting!
Yep... worked great on my CaliBamboo engineered flooring. We did our entire first floor (about 1100 sq foot) in our spare time over 5 weeks. Owning the stapler was a must for us because we did the entire project ourselves and both work full time. Renting it 5 or 6 times would have been way more expensive and time consuming going back and forth to pickup and drop back off. The only issue we had was getting the foot in the right position. After consulting the internet, we found a lot of people built it up with duct tape. We did this as well, and after we got the right adjustments, it worked great. We had a few misfires here and there but we believe it was user error not equipment malfunction. Also, because its small, we were able to get it much closer to the walls and avoid face nailing. The CaliBamboo was really difficult to face nail because of the carbonized finish and face nailing was sketchy at best and if there was misfire it end up causing a mess, so we were glad we were able to get this little guy against the wall and only had to face nail one row against the wall! ... show more

  • Great for engineered hardwood.
Great for engineered hardwood. Easy to adjust shoe/base. Loads quickly, Bostitch quality and no oil needed. Be sure to use the property sized staples.
