16/18 Gauge 3-in-1 Air Nailer/Stapler but not sure if it's a good nailer combo. Do you use any central nailers?

I only mostly it to inflate car tires, seat and inflate MTB tubeless tires, inflate balls, dust-clean electronics etc, but it works great for my purposes and it is indeed pretty quiet.
Not totally silent mind you: it is not for you to work in the middle of the night with it, but you can hold a casual conversation over it. Mentioning because often people build up irrational expectations over "silence".
apparently, some replacement parts ( piston / head gasket) are available.

Fortress leaking after only 0ne year
Purchased 3-5-2019. Only used it a few times and was happy. The other day the system built up pressure to 135 psi then dropped back to 90 psi. System tried to turn back on and it cut out. Had to wait for the motor to cool down. Contacted product support and they tried to help but did not know what to do. Finally customer support told be to take the compressor to a repair shop. So now I am looking for more reliable brand. No more Harbor Freight. I told years ago not to buy anything from Sears with a motor. Look at where they are today...

For what it's worth, I love mine, but it is a harbor freight thing. Back early this year if you wanted a silent compressor it was either that or california air. If i was buying one today, I would go for whatever one has the best warranty or support, which is why I mentioend lowes.
However, I am happy with mine.
