I used this product for the first time with excellent results. Much better control, less wasted foam, easy cleanup. The adapters should be longer . as long as the depth of the average windor frame ... so one can get into the recessed areas. The adapters must be placed on tightly. Re-read the instructions to get it right. All in all, a good product. The extra cost is worth it. Spare noozle adapters should be sold in various sizes as a separate accessory.
Pros: Easy to Use, Easy to Work With, Easy to Clean, Reliable
Cons: longer tips would be helpful
Yes, I recommend this product.

Overall, the gun is nice to use but as others have stated, the cans are long and make can be difficult to use when maneuvering around pipes and such. Perhaps a solution would be to design a foam tank which connects to the gun via hose, just as the $400 spray kits, but just having one variable quantity tank instead of 2. Would give the other guys a run for their money!
All in all, I would recommend this gun as it is nice to use and also easy to control foam output and cleaning is simple enough. Just clean gun in a ventilated area. It's ok to spray cleaner thru gun and into house hold trash bags..
Now for the not so good. You will have to leave a can screwed on otherwise it (the can of foam) will leak when removed. Unless you don't mind the waste. As it's said, you can leave the gun for 30 days with gun attached.
Pros: Easy to Use, Performs Well, Seals Well, Easy to Clean, Economical
Yes, I recommend this product.

One of the advertised uses of this product is to airseal band joists. I use about 3-5 cans a day. Almost all of the homes I work on have plumbing, or other obstructions blocking access to the rim joist. A longer nozzle or a shorter wider can would make it fit better. I see that they have a much longer version, but it's not listed yet on the HD site or in the store. For open areas it is accurate, clean, and you can use less product , lowering your costs.
Pros: Easy to Work With, Easy to Clean, Economical
Cons: Tall, Too Big
Yes, I recommend this product.

I have to give it an avg rating bc your gonna have use the spray foam can intented for the gun. Which is only sold online. So that means more shipping charges. Else order enough cleaner and foam to last a few jobs. The functionality of product is excellent even cleaning it was great.
Pros: Easy to Use, Performs Well, Easy to Work With, Quiet, Good Size & Weight, Seals Well, Good Shape, Great Value, Easy to Clean, High Quality, Economical, Reliable, Light Weight
Cons: can only get can application online
Yes, I recommend this product.

I used this to foam around my new windows and it generally worked well. I did have a can of foam that didn't want to come out with any force and that was very frustrating for how much they cost. The control and accuracy is SO much better than the can with plastic tube!
** BEWARE THAT YOU CAN'T TAKE A PARTIALLY USED CAN OFF **
I guess I didn't pay attention to that part of the instructions, only the fact that you can LEAVE a partially used can ON the gun and re-use LATER (within 30 days). I needed to foam a larger area and started a can of orange foam and then took it off only to have it slowly fizz foam out the top of the can and get ruined (it did produce quite an object of art though, but I digress). I plan to foam the top of my wall headers in the attic and use a combo of 2" foam panel/GreatStuff for the basement rim joists. I may then sell the gun online and if I even get 25% back I'll be happy with the whole purchase. Don't just buy this for casual use, it's pretty expensive for the foam refill cans, those should either contain more material or be less expensive. Also, where is the high expanding foam choice?? I did end up with a lot less waste then usual, and I got very little on myself or my hands. That almost makes it worth the cost alone.
Pros: Easy to Use, Easy to Work With, Good Size & Weight, Seals Well
Cons: Inconsistent, No Instructions, no high expanding choice, value
Yes, I recommend this product.

Easy to use with 24 oz. foam insulation cans. Only drawback I found is that the height of can limits use in narrow spaces.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This is a great and reliable tool. Way more accurate and precise with the application of the foam as compared to using the disposable cans. Much more control over amount as well as getting into tighter areas and also much less mess than the cans.
Yes, I recommend this product.
