We’re building a new house and I’m looking at the Bostitch nailer but the local hardware store said they’ve stopped carrying Bostitch due to returns & breakdowns; they continue to sell Senco. Has anyone bought and used the Hitachi 15 guage nailer?

Senco
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming....
WOW!!! What a Ride!

why are you adverse to using the senco?
Well the Senco (new & improved version) sells for about $30 more than the Bostitch. Since I haven't used nailers before, I'm looking for input... judging from the initial responses sounds like the Senco may be worth it though?
Never personally had a problem with either the senco brad gun or 15ga that I have.
you could also check out http://www.toolcribofthenorth.com I believe they're running a speacial, 25 off any purchase of 199 or more.
Max or Hitachi then senco in order of preference. Senco quality has just gone to poo
Senco or Max then Hitachi is the real order of preference.
