Compressor
The 150 psi max compressor stores more air than traditional 135 psi compressors, increasing productivity by allowing for more nails to be driven. Its 6-gallon tank also improves upon the quantity of nails that can be deployed on a single tank charge. A standard household current supports this 120-volt electric unit, and its innovative shroud and 34-pound weight advances protection and portability.

Nailers and Stapler
The FN250C finish nailer utilizes standard 16-gauge finish nails from 1 inch to 2-1/2 inches long, and it features an internal piston catch for consistent maximum power on every shot and a rear exhaust to keep contaminates away from work. Its oil- and maintenance-free motor prevents oil from staining the work surface and extends tool life. The BN138 narrow-crown brad nailer uses standard 18-gauge brad nails from 5/8 inches to 1-3/8 inches long. It too comes with a long-life motor, and it has a tool-free depth-of-drive adjustment with detents for proper setting of nail heads (as does the FN250C). And the NS100B stapler dispenses standard 18-gauge 1/4-inch staples from 1/2 inch to 1 inch long. Like the nailers, the stapler also features an internal piston catch; additionally, it has a split-nose design for easy removal of jammed staples, a sequential-style trigger with lock-off switch, and a removable non-marring nose tip.

With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.
You can trust this review, i hope you can try to buy this product and then you know this product good or no. Next time you can make a review for another people.

Great set for the money
Let me start off by saying that the best price i found on this item is not on amazon but rather at home depot ($279), which makes this set a really great deal.

The compressor is likely the weakest link in this set. It is relatively noisy, although still much quieter than my 2.5hp 33gal craftsman, and there definitely are better options in this size.

Both nailers and the stapler are all superb. They're quiet and reliable. I am using cheap harbor freight nails and have not got a single jam in a few weeks of use. The depth adjustment is tool free and works very well on all three tools.

Overall, this is one of the best deals out there for a high quality nailer combo with a decent compressor.

Dependable and low maintenance
This is a nice combo pack for the weekend user or hobbyist. The compressor requires no maintenance... a definite consideration when buying. Everything is easily accessible for adjustments and connections. The unit is compact, fairly light and packs up well for mobility. Compressor is a bit loud but I can live with that for the price. There is no air nozzle included, you'll need to buy that separately.
DIY Guy
I hadn't as much as touched a nail gun prior to this purchase so I was a bit apprehensive at first. I was doing a remodel project and opted to do my own custom trim so I needed something for fast and clean nailing and finish nailing. This combo package was absolutely perfect for my project. Very easy to use and short learning curve. Quick-connect locking works great for switching from tool to tool very quickly. I liked the carrying case that it came with, makes for great storage of the guns and extra nails when not in use. The kit included most of what I needed - I only added some accessories for some of the other cool things you can do once you haver a compressor in your home! I have had no issues at all and this has been a great decision for me. Based on some estimates I had done prior to my purchase this item paid for itself by the time I finished doing the trim in my second room. Based on my usage so far I am pretty sure the quality of this Porter Cable product will stand the test...
