I was really wrestling with the price on this, but I'm so glad I bought it. It works so well and is such a such a time saver! No more fighting, no more aches the next day, very worth the investment. If you can do it, do it.

I bought another brand of nail puller which was black and came up first in the list when sorted by average customer review. Shortly after I began pulling nails with it, the piston jammed on a smaller nail that I couldn't remove no matter what I tried, so I had to toss it.

It left a bad taste in my mouth having to throw out a brand new tool with hardly any use. After some time passed and I got over my frustration, I looked for another brand, and settled on this one. I have removed about 100 nails of all sizes without a jam or issue of any kind. I won't go into how it works, lots of others have done that - you center it over the nail, hit the trigger and make sure there's something to collect the nail shooting out the other side. I suggest a trash can or cardboard box with something in it like rags, sawdust, trash, etc. because it does come out with force. Also, try to center the nail a bit instead of letting it ride up the side. I suspect that is more likely to cause jams with the pistons.

I'm happy that I found one that works because I really did want to have a pneumatic nail remover that I could depend on. So if you had bad luck with the other one that's sold here, give this one a shot. I liked it so much, I bought the other two removers, though I haven't needed them yet.

Get it and you'll never regret it

I bought the Puller and the pusher set to take the nails out of my deck boards. This tool set is worth the money. One helpful hint if you get a nail stuck in the puller, tap the nail slightly with a hammer and use a small curve pick to pull the foot down. I used my pick set from Harbor Freight and now leave it with the tool. You will need something to pull the foot down, it happens no big deal! LOVE IT!

I bought this as a gift for my dad, who enjoys building things. He said that it is perfect for removing nails from pallets, as long as the nail is sticking up a bit. It's real easy to use, but a little to pricy for all that it does.
