Pros: Light, smooth, reliable
Cons: None so far.

Comments:
I just bought this unit for trim work and it's ideal for that purpose.

As to the previous reviewer's comment about "bounce nailing"? Bounce nailing with a brad nailer is a hack method employed in film and other high production trades where volume trumps quality AND safety. Nobody that works with proper materials (ie. wood rather than MDF) would EVER use a bounce-nailing feature.

This brad nailer replaces my old Bostich. I couldn't be happier.
