The variable speed on the trigger combined with the speed dial on the back make it an effortless job even in an industry that requires you to do extensive caulking or siliconing..... Takes some getting used to but as long as you start with the dial on 1 and work up to your comfortable speed by 1/2 increments you will adjust quickly..... I love the unit..... Wish I would've purchased sooner

I love everything in the Makita LXT series, even this caulk gun. Though to be honest, if you are just a home diy guy/gal, I cannot justify the expense. Buy some other Makita LXT tool for that money instead. Caulking oftens requires odd lifting positions, having the extra weight of this unit + battery will wear on you after a short while.

Made two major calking jobs on my boat go smoothly, no way to do this manually, speed adjustments work super well, never needed to change battery in a whole day. Do not over-tighten the black cartridge holder, I can't get mine off again, might contact service for that. excellent tool

Great Tool! Used at least weekly. Too Expensive! Only worth $150.00 max!!!

got it and used for the first time with a 3 month old fully charged battery. every time I pressed the trigger it would overload. I was trying to apply window caulk, not really hard. I do not recommend this and it is way overpriced. I purchased because all my hand tools are Makita and didn't want another charger, but now ill just go get a Ryobi for 50 bucks.
