Crain VS Roberts Mini Stretcher

[@atlas4428]

Thank you for sharing so much knowledge for free! My install quality has improved so much from your videos

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Man that is really nice to hear, thank you for sharing that

[@jackandersoniii6328]

I also own both of these mini stretchers, and the Crain is definitely the better of the two.

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Agreed

[@keithrury2478]

I see the advantages of the Crain. I also see a lot of small moving parts, how does it hold up? I've had the Roberts for years and it's pretty durable.

[@jackandersoniii6328]

@@keithrury2478 It’s well made, I have no complaints ,except cost. And, the tall legs are definitely a game changer, for when you’re burning a seam.

[@floored3145]

Can you install a room with a mini stretcher and a kicker or kneeless?

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

I suppose you could, but I would not recommend that it would almost be impossible to get the mandatory stretch that you need

[@jsballeck]

Whats the price difference 🤔

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

There are links in the description if you want to check the real time pricing

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Hundred dollars difference for the stretchers

[@jsballeck]

​@@FloorsbySouthernboys I already own the Robert's and use it all the time. It will have to do.

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

@@jsballeck man I don’t blame you

[@patodonovan8364]

Looks like the crain wins hands down.

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Yeah, I agree with you

[@UAintCrazy]

And of course i had to buy the roberts lol

[@FloorsbySouthernboys]

Well, they are both nice for sure. Just some added benefits with the Crain
