Flex nation!!! You gotta do a review of the new framing nailers when you get one. Great video

Ive used flex since the day its hit the market. Absolute love them. I’ve had a couple issues here and there but nothing major and they fixed each issue really quickly when I needed it. I used to run the senco brad nailers but have completely stopped and only use my flex now too. That’s saying something. Senco has ran the game with nailers for the longest.

Flex am a HUGE fan, BUT yall need to do right by this man and give him the hook up.

Wow I can’t believe Flex ghosted you. You’re like Flex’s YouTube Posterboy to me. I started buying Flex about 3-4 years ago and your the first one to give them REAL props while the “Garage boys” were doubting the brand. Now of course everyone loves Flex. I hope they make contact with you your the ONLY honest review. Good luck 👍

I started working in construction 3-4 years ago and my first drill that I bought was a flex, I still have it, it's my baby and from there I started buying more flex tools, I have most of them and the stack pack boxes, I still think they need more tools on the market but with the ones they have they are well built and I hope to say hello to you one day in NJ and you should put out merch or something

How many tower lights have you had to send back? I've had three tower lights that the switch stopped working and the light will not turn on so I'm on my fourth tower light. I have like five batteries that I need to send back but I really don't even feel like dealing with flex. Other than that flex tools are solid man...

Similar experience here with Flex. Love these tools and really minor issues that won't stop me from using their better built tools. A tad expensive but due to Lowes having sold their Canadian market I got crazy deals here shopping at Rona+ .. wondering where I'll get my new tools when I'll need any but just to give you an example.. bought a second circular saw because I couldn't let this deal go : circular saw, 280w fast charger, 10amp stacked lithium battery and a nice carrying bag for ... Wait for it.. 149.99 CAD plus taxes 6 amp stacked lithium batteries for 75 CAD plus taxes.. SDS for 199.99 CAD.. etc etc etc i sure hope Rona+ makes a deal with Flex or something because if not I'll be stuck driving 2 hours to buy tools accross the border. But for now I'm taking advantage of Rona+ getting rid of Flex tools. I really don't mind with that lifetime warranty and the speed they replace anything I'm having a n issue with.

Never had a battery issue with them, but am not a heavy user. Flex is whats next. Need to expand there tool line like a full size router drill press etc. The new radio sucks.

[MakeWithMike]

I love the framing nailer i habe the flex 21 degree and the Milwaukee 30 degree

Lowe’s is clearancing out the Turbo hammer drill, and my local Lowe’s inventory is way down. Me thinks the old flux is struggling, due to lack of sales, and lost revenue and having to warranty all those crappy leaking asbestos filled batteries!!! 😮 yup, sad but true flux fans.

[simonmonty]

Out of my 12 batteries I had issues with one of them.

The blower is pretty much the same as the Kobalt
