Bostitch CPACK300 3-Tool and Compressor Combo Kit

Rating

I bought the old Bostitch combo kit several years ago and finally needed to buy a new one. I was pleasantly surprised with the upgrades. The guns are lighter and the compressor is more compact and easier to carry than the old Bostitch compressor. This kit is great for anyone who needs a reliable compressor and a few trim nailers.

I would prefer to give this product 4.5 stars instead of 5

The CPACK300 has been great for my recent remodelling jobs. Compared to the cp3, the kit remains the same except for the change in compressor. From my experience with both kits, the CPack300 has a far more ergonomic & jobsite friendly design. As other have pointed out for the CP3, the compressor handle was poorly designed & weight and size has been reduced to produce the cpack300 compressor. It’s a tad more powerful at 40 psi & so much easier to lug around. Guages are protected by a rubber rims & the compressor is as compact as can be, the design is queter than the previous design & queter that similar porter cable designs.(it’ll still wake you up in the middle of the night if you keep it plugged in next to you )

All guns require a bit of oil, but work flawlessly. Bostich makes great products made for a lifetime & i’m sure this is no different. The guns have never jammed, and work fine with 3rd party nails, or brads… after about 2000 nails, i have yet to have a jam. The design is great, the guns fire comparatively quiet & have the dual safety feature.

The no mar tips are of hard plastic & in my opinion inferrior to the porter cable guns i’ve used prior to purchasing this combo. I do appreciate the comprenhsive kit that is included. basically you get a quality stanley tool bag, about $25 worth of nails, staples, and brads.

The only deduction i’d give is to the cheap pvc air hose included, i guess this is true with all pvc produces… it maintains its rigitity & it maye be tough going around corners, causing the user to tug it along. Also it doesn’t wind as well as rubber hoses, I’m sure i’ll be upgrading the hose once it shows its age.

The whole kit is probably 50 lbs total & take a very small footprint when organize.

So far the whole kit is fantastic for the price i paid, about $270 after taxes. It’s on par with more expensive kits & it give you alot for the money, including an impressive 7 yr warranty on the guns.

I’ve laid down about 1500 square ft of hardwood between this bostich & a porter cable combo that i borrowed off a friend. nailed in 150 ft of molding & fixed all sort of problems through out my home. I’d recommend this kit to anyone over the CP3 kit for anyone looking for a dependable nailer/compressor combo. CP3 kit has the inferior compressor

Love it, love it. This is great investment! We are new home owners it we have used it for multi purposes (projects and blowing up pool stuff). It is easy to use, the directions were clear. It has sparked us to come up with new projects to work on!

The ability to fasten accurately is much greater with this tool than a hammer and nail. It is easy to use and speeds up any project.

I tried contacting Bostitch to let them know that my bag was torn. I get no reply or help. I know that I bought a recondition item, but did not expect to get a torn bag. Surly a conmpany like Bostitch can afford a $25.00 bag to put their recondition tools in. If I don’t get a reply, I will not do business with them again.

I purchased this on-line rather because it included the combo kit that I could not find in stores. It has been great. I changed out 7 windows and used this to help replace all of them. The compressor and nailer worked great just like I knew they would. Had an oil spill during from the bad oil bottle included but all else is great.

Used my son’s, and just had to have one. Great for putting up molding and trim. Plan on building some new planters and storage cabinets. Easy to use. Ample hose length and the guns are easy to handle. Unit is lightweight for easy moving, but will handle heavy jobs. I picked up the Air gun attachment, which comes in handy for cleaning the saw dust out of my power saws. Good quality at a great price.

I bought this kit because I was remodeling my family room. Best $$$ I ever spent. It took me less than 3 hours to do the trim and base boards in a 850 sq ft room with this baby. I’m going to replace all the trim in my house just so I can keep using this thing. Love it.

I had been drooling over this compressor kit at a local retailer but could not justify the $290 purchase price. Having had good experiences with other tools at a factory outlet, I was delighted to find it factory reconditioned on Amazon.

The kit arrived as promised but without tool oil. The first time I used it I found out why it was returned to the factory as it leaked air and would not build enough pressure to turn off. I completed the small project I had started and traced the problem to a leak around the threads (partially stripped) of the pressure regulator’s adjusting knob. I was able to make temporary repairs and contacted the shipper. Rather than return the unit, they sent me a new pressure regulator. My repairs are still holding and I have a replacement if it fails again.

I am very pleased with my purchase and service after the sale. I would recommend the kit to any DIY’er, cabinet maker and trim carpenter.
