Tools and Hardware Reviews of Dripless Inc. ETS2000 Ergo Composite Caulk Gun
Customer Review: Best caulk gun by far
Summary: 5 Stars
Most people wouldn't get excited about a caulk gun. But as someone who has spent over a year weatherizing homes full time, I love this caulk gun! It dispenses caulk smoothly and with minimal effort, the no-drip feature works flawlessly, and it is very lightweight yet feels sturdy. Plus the poker rod is actually long enough to puncture the nozzle seal without cutting the hole larger than you want to.
The truth is, a $[...] sheet metal caulk gun will get the job done, but it will be a messy and annoying process. A $[...] no-drip gun(same thing but with a spring) actually works pretty well and is widely available. But I highly reccomend spending a few more dollars for this one, which will make caulking a more positive experience. You won't regret buying this, especially if you do a lot of caulking.
One more tip: If you do a lot of caulking, get used to the [...] jokes. They're inevitable, and you may as well embrace them.
Customer Review: There is such a thing as a good caulk gun!
Summary: 5 Stars
I used to be of the mindset that all caulk guns flat out stunk at caulking. But after getting really annoyed with a cheap metal one from the home improvement store that would only advance a tiny bit before needing to be "cocked" I decided to upgrade to this one. It's a miracle how evenly it advances the caulk...and for so long without releasing and re-squeezing. I was able to do an entire side of a vanity top in one stroke. Amazing! And the rate of release is so fluid and smooth. This is definitely worth paying a little extra for.Customer Review: Ergonomic doesn't even begin to describe it!

Purchased this as a gift for my father who is retired and has mild arthritis. After receiving it, he spent the rest of Christmas day applying 8 tubes of caulk to every crack, crevice and narrow gap around the house, with no hand fatigue. His house is now much more energy efficient, although my mother probably won't be too happy in the spring when she finds the windows have been caulked shut.
Highly recommended, but I think it should be noted that moderation is key here...
Customer Review: excellent for a beginner
Summary: 5 Stars
I've never caulked before, so I don't know how this compares to other caulk guns, but this one was easy to use, light weight, and has very little drip. It does make you want to search your house for more caulking that needs to be done. It's almost too bad that the work is done so easy and so quick. If this gun costs more, especially including shipping, I'm sure it's worth it.Customer Review: Occasional Use Homeowner
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had the $3.00 metal caulking guns and the rust, get dented and the tube seems to jamb or caulk keeps oozing out when I squeeze the trigger. They are functional but the ETS2000 overshadows these by a lot. I only have use for this quality of tool every so often so it will last a long long time. Many nice features and smooth action.
