Pros & Cons
Pros
A good sturdy tool and easy to use, grips the carpet well but gets painful on the knee. Easy to use & has a good grip. Good quality, robust abs does the job!
Good for diy carpet fitters. Like the protective cover, also has a well padded knee pad. Used to re-stretch the front room carpet as being laid 18 month ago. Perfect for a diy carpet fitter.
Cons
Does not adjust to different hights of pile. Teeth not long enough to grip into pile of carpet.
Highlights
Quality
Overall appears to be a quality item.
Good quality, robust abs does the job!
Competitiveness
But you need to be quite strong to do that… you might consider just hiring something else to do the job tbh.
