Review: Nice caulking tool for a good price. - Works great, slow and controlled release, no drip, easy load, handy tools. Mine didn’t come with a caulk plug as described but still giving it 5 stars as it works very well for a good price.
Review: My absolute favorite caulking guns - I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this is one of the best caulking guns on the market, at least in this price ballpark. It's well made with good features, but most importantly, it is very smooth operating. I have three of these, but recently bought the two I'm talking about in this review. I used one for normal white trim caulk and the other for clear silicone after installing new base for a Pergo Outlast+ laminate floor install. I was very impressed with the comfort and performance of these caulking guns. I've used a lot of caulking guns over the years but IMO, these are the best I've used. The fad today seems to be with powered caulking guns of which I own two from Milwaukee. However, for finish work they are not a good match. They're great for applying liquid nails for a subfloor install though. Don't be fooled thinking you can use them for every job. Trust me, I've tried. These manual caulking guns are so much nicer to use if you're not pumping out cartridge after cartridge of adhesive.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Caulk Gun with much appreciated extras ~ works great!!!
*by C***F on November 7, 2025*

Very nice caulk gun and esp appreciated the included caulking tools and caulk tube plug for $12.99. As the basic no frills no-drip gun was $9.99, so why not!! Gun works great, my 10.5oz caulk tube fit perfectly and caulk job was a breeze. No more self squeezing caulk tubes for this girl! I've graduated to the caulk gun... LOL!!! Highly Recommend!
