Possibly the BEST cordless nailers EVERY MADE!

[@scottieledford9371]

I care nothing for Flex, but I do catch all of The Tool Review videos I can! Entertainment guaranteed!

[@leonardpaciora5039]

Thanks Clint! Iike the way that they positioned the lights!

[@Eitan-b5r]

Recently I got 4 23GA nailers by FLEX, METABO, Milwaukee, and DeWalt. Using different length nails, into soft and hard wood, lloking for those that would not leave a mark (besides the pin) on the wood. sometimes you can not fill that hole. I did adjust the nailers to shoot nails what would not be proud, and sink all the way in. Metabo leaves ~4mm mark, Flex ~2mm mark, Milwaukee and DeWalt perfect entry - no marks. the Flex and Dewalt look very similar, almost the same dimensions, Milwaukee is smaller and use 12v. Flex, Metabo, and Milwaukee have good light, in the DeWalt it is located on the back, and does not do much. Adjusting the depth, is the best on the Milwaukee, without lifting any cover, or using Allen keys on the Metabo. My best choice is the DeWalt or the Milwaukee Dewalt for more power and longer nails, Milwaukee is for size, and easy of use). both Metabo and Flex go back to the store. 24V on the FLEX does not make it more power-full than the DeWalt.

Maybe I missed it but I am surprised you didn’t mention that these guns can be refilled by the user. Flex now sells an adapter to easily refill their nailers. One adapter will fit all of their nailers I believe and they sell it for around 49.99. Metabo HPT are refillable at home as well, but you have to purchase a separate regulator for each size nailer and they are really intended to be sold to tool techs.

[@robertrada4783]

@@aaronrichardson7272 I asked him beforehand in an early video about the Flex nailers and he had no idea what I was talking about. I didn’t know about needing the different regulators on the Hitabo HPV guns. I had presumed there was only one. I’m glad I saw your comment. I’ll look into it.

[@briha3142]

i shall stick with my Metabo HPT 36v nailers as well as the 18v ones too, for their easy-to-claim Lifetime warranty! Flex seems to be almost going into bankruptcy! The employees at Lowe’s tell me that they’ve never seen anybody buy the Flex tools!

[@robertrada4783]

@@briha3142 It’s all relative. Outside of car detailing and stone work, most Americans never heard of Flex until the black and grey cordless lineup was launched. They’re probably already moving more stock here than Fein and Metabo. So on their scale, they’re doing huge. Chervon makes Kobalt, Skil and Ego, so they’re staying at Lowes whether Lowes likes it or not. It doesn’t mean much that Lowes never moves much of their Flex stock. Lowes doesn’t move much power tool stock, period. All I see is them growing in their native market despite the conversion from a mostly specialised brand (car polishers, drywall sanders, metalworking drum burnishers, and grinders just because they invented them…maybe a festool detail sander knockoff) to Chervon’s mid to up market general cordless brand. They’re starting to migrate the small amount of specialised 18v stuff they sold here to the 22v line just in this market, so they’re definitely serious.

I got the 18g crown stapler for cornerbead installation and the internals broke on me. Didn't last a month. Luckily their warranty is excellent so a week later i got the replacement but still. Plan on maki6a video because i also got the new skil abd its going strong.

[@aaronoconnor606]

Interested in the pin nailer, 15 gauge and framing nailer would like tp see some long term reviews after a year of use

[@wmars4655]

You've been flexing with those flexes lately

[@Benitodelacruz-d9p]

I do so much framing with my drill these days quiet & reliable cheap

[@J-Colt]

Hmm, 1st, 2nd, some weird comments. Anyway Clint, thanks for video. Flex be flexing!

[@RidgidRon]

I have 18 gauge brad and 24 gaige pin nailer They are very good

[@mikeevans565]

Definitely real naaaasssss like brother. Definitely worth looking into

[@garyb.4080]

In my area if you wanted one, you would have to buy it on line, because Lowes, say they carry Flex, but they never have what you want! How much for a battery,and charger?

[@robertrada4783]

Weird. In Chicagoland they have all of the nailers on display.

[@Patricksmancave]

Love it. These are very nice nail guns. I have used ryobi nail guns they are trash. These look well built. Thank you.

[@merkn247]

Do you have the new high performance line??

[@Patricksmancave]

@ yes I do.

[@loucifer4205]

Those air cartridge nail guns are good in the beginning but they all have the same problem they run out of air and if you use them a lot you'll be lucky to get 6 months out of them that's why the flywheel design is better if you don't drop or do something stupid with them you'll 3 to 5 years out of them before they need repairs

[@robertrada4783]

These, the Hitachi/Hikoki/Metabo HPT and the AEG are all designed to be refilled by the user with an air compressor. The Hitachi’s have been around a LONG time, and user refillable all the while…

[@merkn247]

Its not repairs its just is a refill and its a matter of time before they make a tool available for the nitrogen gun like milwaukees

[@robertrada4783]

It’s a nice rollout. Checked them out about a month ago. I still can’t stand the prickly overmold on the handles. Otherwise, I’d have a whole set of the North American Flex range.

[@INFRNL1]

I've heard this before...sounds like people with sensitive hands shouldn't choose FLEX😂 I don't have any issues with the grips... no issues for a working mans hands🤣

[@robertrada4783]

@@INFRNL1 This is true. Unlike yourself, my hands aren’t all calloused from working the docks.

[@INFRNL1]

@@robertrada4783i will agree some of them are a little more agressive. Hopefully Flex can tame them down or make them softer. I just invested in several flex tools and they are great. Hopefully they continue to grow

[@robertrada4783]

@@INFRNL1 There’s now about 85% parity with the original red 18v lineup sold outside of the US. I don’t think they’re going anywhere other than higher and wider. I moved over to Hilti for my main cordless kit and a good portion of it is simply rebranded Flex with a slightly modified housing (and of course an increased price tag). Hell, even Festool is rebranding a couple of Flex tools now. Chervon is really stepping up from Dewalt and Kobalt.

[@johnrice9121]

Flex is putting in some development time. I didn't know you were bilingual. That's real nas like.

[@Benitodelacruz-d9p]

I use 18 gauge & 15 gauge

[@mattlyles2419]

Okay, okay, Clint. Taking the kids Christmas back and buying then all my friend

[@edgarcornette6387]

Are you not entertained ?? of course we are. Dont have any flex tools ... but Santa Clint is all ways real nice like. Thank you for the info now I gots to go ..

[@eamonstynes440]

Still old school pneumatic guns and staplers, yes I need power and hoses, but no waiting to recharge, the gun between shots. But if I go battery, it will be the GOAT of battery nailers, Paslode, everything else is a poor imitation

[@steelvalleysportsmen7737]

These nailers might have gave me the woodage...

[@thomasgilliam3104]

Dewalts gonna lead th3 game soon. With more powerful more consistent and more robust and more compact than any other brand. No one else will be able to compact them without compacting the canister making you have to send it in the be refilled more and more often. Fuckin sad. Watch what I say. It's gonna happen. They gonna embarrass everyone.

Im getting the makita framer from a makita rep mid january Just wait until makita masters milwaukees power its going to be game over like there saws and there drills……… there nailers suck rn lol

Dewalt is the worst. Metabos better that dewalt,all u need to know

I’m imagining you mean Metabo HPT: The Artist Formerly Known as Hitachi Koki and not Metabo. Cuz Metabo only has the framing nailer atm.
