I got one of those for doing our ceilings (and soon my summerhouse). it made things a lot easier but the max length of 57mm was a slight issue as we were overboarding some ceilings that were already boarded over the lath and plaster original ceilings so we needed to use 75mm screws so we ended up doing those rooms with a £5 drywall screw bit which did equally as well just without the collation.
it wont be for months yet but i imagine i'll be selling it when the summerhouse is done as I'm not sure i'll ever need it again after that.

Do I need a collated screw gun?

Edit: talking to a load of flooring people lately to figure out what to do with our kitchen floor.
We want to corka it but needs to be flatter than it is. Half is ply over original boards at the moment. Half is latex over concrete but has a few bumps in it that are higher than the ply and the latex sounds hollow in places. So suggestions seem to be MORE ply over the ply to raise the height and then SBR over latex and screed over SBR. Then in theory it'll all be flat. I remember that doing the screws for the first round of ply took fucking forever. Will a collated screw gun be something I use again and again and again every day? Am I going to turn into Maslow's Hammer but start screwing every inanimate object? Don't talk about my wife that way.
