Tools and Hardware Reviews of Bostitch EHF1838K Engineered Hardwood Flooring Stapler

Customer Review: Great and easy to use
Summary: 5 Stars

Easy to use, which was good, since there was no manual included, and I purchased a brand new unit.

Works very well, although I had to purchase shorter staples; I installed bamboo engineered flooring, and there didn't seem to be enough power to drive a 1 3/8" staple, but I think that was more a function of the bamboo being very hard wood. The staple would go 2/3 of the way in, but then the top of the staple would crumple on top of itself. My compressor would only go to 120 pounds of pressure, I think higher pressure would have taken care of this in one shot.

The flooring is a click together system, and didn't need staples, but I really wanted the floor to feel very solid.
