Title: Nailer Failed Quickly
Product review: I purchased this nailer primarily because of the good reviews. After receiving it yesterday, I installed the air chuck and oiled the unit per the instructions. I prepared my project this morning and began using the new nailer, but after shooting 20 nails, the unit failed with the driver unit (plunger) stuck in the down position. I called Stanley-Bostitch Tech Support and they said the o-ring in the trigger valve failed and was probably because Amazon had it on the shelf too long which caused the o-ring to dry out!!! I cannot believe that is what caused the failure...though I did notice the unit is now made in Taiwan instead of the US plant in Indiana. They are shipping the new trigger valve today and now my project has to wait for parts that I hope will remedy the problem. Having to repair a new nailer is more than disappointing.
