Milwaukee M18 FUEL Gen II Brad Nailer
Score: 85/100Rankings
The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Gen II 18-Gauge Brad Nailer is a professional-grade cordless tool designed for light-duty trim work with zero ramp-up time. Its main limitation is the lack of structural nailing capability and the requirement to purchase batteries separately. It is best suited for professional carpenters already invested in the M18 ecosystem.
The Makita XNB02Z is a cordless 18V LXT finish nailer designed for professional trim work and woodworking. It offers a high-capacity magazine and extended runtime, though it is heavier than pneumatic models. Best suited for contractors who prioritize cordless convenience and already own Makita batteries.
