 It's a Cheap Electric Finish Nailer; It's Not a Fancy Pneumatic. November 22, 2008
S. T. Harwood (Owosso, MI United States of America)
I was given this as a gift after I complained a lot that I hated doing finish work. Then, after a year with no trim in our newly renovated bathroom, this made the job seem easier, and I finished it. I like it.
Just recently, I pulled my ET200 out of the basement to use on some 1x6 pine boards we are using as facia around a couple of eaves over some doors on the side of the house. The nailer left the nails hanging out about a half an inch. After some deducting reasoning, I discovered that the 100' drop cord we were using was the culprit.
After I replaced the long drop chord with a 20' (and larger gauge) drop cord, the nailer worked perfectly. It definitely made the job quicker, easier, and more enjoyable.
This nailgun has worked well for everything except nailing through maple and oak. For the price, this was a worthwhile purchase for me.
 Great tool if you know how to use it. November 10, 2008
Steve the Tool Guy (Phoenix, AZ)
After reading all the reviews that rated this tool so poorly, I almost didn't buy one; for once, I'm glad I ignored the reviews. This is a nail gun and you need to use it like a real gun... hold it SECURELY against whatever you're nailing - if you don't the recoil will drive the nail gun away from the target and you'll get poor penetration. I've nailed 3/4" oak trim to an MDF substrate with no problems. This is a great tool if you know how to use it.
Arrow ET200 Electric Nail Gun October 30, 2008
Raymond Duda (Conway, SC)
I am very pleased with the Arrow ET200 Electric Nail Gun. I have used it for moulding and paneling and am very happy with the way it works. It allows me to pin the thin moulding in place and then go along the length of the moulding to secure it in place. I can hold the moulding in place one-handed and use the ET200 with the other hand. Much, much easier than trying to use a hammer, nail and nail set. I have also used it to install bead-board type paneling as wainscoting in a bathroom. Again, the ET200 allows me to get into hard-to-reach places that using a hammer & nail would be more difficult.
I am very satisfied and extremely glad I purchased it.
Awesome when you follow the directions October 19, 2008
Mark F. Slack (San Mateo, CA)
I almost took the ET200 back to the store. I pulled it out of the case, loaded it with 1 1/4" brads, and started shooting into walls and trim around the house. I experienced the same problems that are often cited here, i.e. brads refusing to drive fully into the surface.
Then, I read the instructions. Guess what! It worked, over and over again! The biggest change came when I changed out the extension cord I had been using to a new 12 gauge heavy duty extension cord. The power out of the nail gun must have increased two fold. Secondly, I made sure that the nail gun was up tight and flush with the wood and angled as close to 90 degrees to the wood as possible.
Now all the 1 1/4" brads are being driven fully into the wood window casings and base trim I am currently installing around the house. And I am so glad I didn't go out and buy one of those $300 pneumatic nail guns to complete my personal projects. This is NOT a gun for professionals. But it is perfect for the homeowner who has some weekend projects to complete.
The ET200 warrants a five star rating to me because of the utility it delivers for the price. This is "cheap entertainment" as they say, and great value.
Enjoy!
This nail gun serves a specific purpose October 17, 2008

Arrow Fastener ET200 Heavy Duty Electric Nail Gun
This nail gun is a great time save for working with wood trim. Does not work as well with plastic/particle board trim. I am installing new pre-hung doors and once the door frames are structurally attached, nailing the trim is fast and easy.
As noted you do have to maintain pressure on the gun to get a sood countersink on the nail. Any heads left standing are best driven as flush as possible with a hammer and then use a nail set (this prevents the problem of bending naill with nail set).
Although the other reviews almost talked me out of the purchase, I am enjoying using this nail gun.
