Tools and Hardware Reviews of Porta-Nailer 461 1-Inch 18-Gauge Narrow (1/4-Inch) Crown Flooring Stapler

Customer Review: Small, light, but fires intermittently
Summary: 3 Stars

I bought this stapler because of the removable flooring foot - a rare feature. The stapler arrived in a nice case and in good condition.

The first problem came when connecting it to my air compressor - the fitting supplied with the stapler was a little out of spec and didn't let my air hose connection seat all the way, allowing the air hose to pop off. You may need to change this fitting depending on your air hose.

There's also something not quite right with the feeder - it fires a staple about 75% of the time, and the rest of the time it dry-fires.

Final issue - the flooring foot is designed for very thin flooring and is not adjustable. It didn't fit my 5/8" T&G flooring at all, so I ended up taking it off. However, the firing point is small enough that it's easy to position it on the tongue and lay flooring without the foot.

All the negatives being said, though, it's a very easy to use stapler, lets you get in pretty tight places, it's simple to reload, and it's easy to see how many staples are in the magazine. It's rugged and lightweight. So once you get used to the misfire rate, you can go pretty fast with it.
