Customer Reviews for POWERNAIL PowerStaples 2 in. Leg x 1/2 in. Crown x 15-1/2-Gauge Steel Hardwood Flooring Staples (1,000-Pack)

Let me start out by saying that I rarely review products. I'll make an exception for this product. Flooring staples are usually a boring, overlooked item in a flooring installation....until something goes wrong. I was installing hardwood floors for the first time in one of our bedrooms. I was using another brand of staples that matched the brand of flooring stapler that I was using. I kept having issues with staple failures. I even went out and bought a new batch with the same results, even after taking apart / cleaning / oiling the stapler. The failure rate was up to 30%. In frustration, I tried these staples and they worked nearly flawlessly. I bought more to install flooring in our MBR (about 240 sq ft). I only had two staple failures, which were likely caused by the staples hitting a nail in the subfloor. I am sold! I will never use anything but these staples. Plus, they are much cheaper than the name brands!

Worked great, and at half the price of the more recognizable name brands!

Does the job for less

Used to have a problem with jamming and thought there was something wrong with my floor nailer. Then I switched to this brand and all is good.

Rating provided by a verified purchaser

Having used a borrowed floor stapler and staples several years ago, I was expecting to have problems like the previous experience. I only did a 100 sq ft project with some leftover 3/4" Hickory, not one misfire. I like 'em!

Worked flawlessly in the Harbor Freight floor nailer. Keep the nailer oiled every hour of operation and I suspect you won't have any problems. I did not have ONE failure to fire. The only issues are when you miss hit nailer with the mallet.

staples did an excellent job.

Worked as expected

Installing 1600 sq ft of flooring using these staples. Good product, does the job exactly like I want it.

These staples worked well. Only had two misfires, and that was because it hit a nail. I installed over 500 square feet of oak 3/4" solid wood floor with these.
