Tools and Hardware Reviews of Porta-Nail 42620 Flooring Nail/Staple Setting Tool
Customer Review: Not worth the money
Summary: 2 Stars
This tool to set the staples is not useful, slips off the staple. I ended up using a standard nail set when I had a staple not set correctly.
Customer Review: Not worth the price
Summary: 3 Stars
I found it difficult to keep the blade of the setting tool on the head of a cleat -- both are very narrow, so the tool slips off easily when using it to set an errant cleat. Frankly, in putting in about 3000 cleats with the PortaNailer, I had only two unset cleats that required using this tool. For that little use, I might as well have used a screw-driver as a setting tool. The PortaNailer does such a good job of punching the cleats below the surface of the tongues that I think you'll find little use for this setting toolCustomer Review: Not worth the price and doesn't even come close to getting the job done!

I purchased this tool because I install a lot of flooring. I switched to a stapler instead of a cleat and was looking for something to drive misfires in. Well I can positively state that this is NOT that tool. As previously stated the "tip" is rounded just like a flat headed screwdriver and so is the staple. So imagine trying to hit a tiny rounded object with another tiny rounded object that you need to hold precisely in place while hitting it with great force. Oops. Not the best design. Look at the end of a quality nail punch and you will see that it is concave (dished in). I would return this if I could. I recommend just using a regular nail punch and bending the staple down into the tongue instead of trying to drive the staple the rest of the way in on a misfire.Customer Review: POOR

Used several times while installing bamboo flooring. It did what it is suppose to. I cannot imagine not having this product because I used it several times.
