Pros: 3/4" to 2-1/2" nails. Well built. Lightweight.
Cons: None I can think of.
The Bottom Line: Porter Cable is a great brand and they make great products. The FN250A is just about the perfect T-nailer.

| andylibby's Full Review: Porter-Cable 2 1/2" Finish Nailer FN250A |
My wife bought me the FN250A along with the compressor in a combo deal. She got an excellent price and even got it on sale so I was pleased with that. So far, I have used it to add some shelves in the closet, quarter round around a wood floor we installed, tacking up soffit in a porch, and putting up crown molding. Now I am building an armoire for our new sitting room and some built in bookshelves. It works great at every job I have tried and sure makes the job easier.
After she gave it to me, I went to the store and bought some of every nail size that the gun can shoot. So far, I have found a use for every size at one time or another.
Having this gun has opened up possibilities for me to build things I wouldn't have considered if I had to nail them by hand.
Ease of operation and maintenance are big pluses. I have gone through a couple of boxes of nails with only 1 jam so far and that was easy to clear.
