I heard that these brad nailers are not very good. I was told they need frequent rebuilds, and they jam more often than they should
Can someone comment?

For the easiest ‘real world’ quality check, ask the Tool Dept. manager of your favorite store what tools/brands are getting returned. Most employees will give you a straight answer.
Or even better, if one of your local Home Depot’s have a HILTI Pro Shop inside, ask their rep for an unbiased recommendation. Might suprise you.
