In Search of the Best Battery-Powered Nailer

Todd at Project Farm did a series of tests to try and find the best battery-powered framing nailer on the market.

The brands he tested were from Milwaukee, Paslode, DeWalt, Ridgid, Craftsman, and Metabo HPT.

The nailers were compared for weight, noise, closeness to object for 90 degree nail drive, nailer speed (seconds to drive 25 nails), performance on composite material (depth of nail), and framing nailer tip grip.

And the envelope please… the best nailer in the lot was the Milwauke M18 FUEL nailer, currently available for $318 (w/o battery) on Amazon.
