Been using it for like 5 years now, this tool is my baby, there's no going back to kicking after you get used to it, top five most important carpet tools in my van
Nice demonstration of how it works and more importantly, the limitations of it. I would like to think it would be effective in stretching in hallways from side to side
That’s probably the max of it. Also depends on how heavy the carpet is. It’s just like any other tool you may have. I do find it useful for certain things.
I got one delivered to Australia, cost $900 with delivery! Which is expensive considering my power stretcher wasnt much more. That being said I love mine, got be honest took me a while to get into using it.... I have used it to do full rooms you can get them tighter if you spilt a room into sections and(stretch) all in all not a bad tool every little helps aye
I was looking to get one to Scotland but the guy that invented it just didn't come and go at all. Looks like he's been bought out or passed on as it's another Canadian company selling it now ( Sarmazian Bros Flooring ) They are selling for £300 plus shipping. Which is probably what they're worth. The Pete guy was too expensive imo. I'm pretty sure it was costing close to £500 ukto get shipped over, I was like, nope ! Glad I held out as going to buy on at the end of the month and get it delivered to Scotland 🏴
I seen your videos your videos laying in a corner somewhere. It’s very handy! I appreciate the fact. I’m not using the knee kicker as much to set walls.
I tried the kneeless on thin rental unit carpet over concrete, and it felt like the back teeth were sliding on the concrete, and the front just raking across the carpet. Maybe I'll give it another chance
Reason why your not getting bubbles out is because your not using it correctly 😬 imagine a square you pick a middle of one of the wall width and you set 3 feet in the middle then do opposite. The you go to the middle of length then go left and leave a foot then go to the right and leave a foot. Then go back to middle of width and go towards the corner you went to on length then do the opposite side. Then you do the other half. You DO NOT SET AN ENTIRE WALL and will not get an actual stretch out of it

Thanks for sharing! A lot of hate out there on this Tool but boy it comes in handy! Works great for pattern. Correction too

They make a spike that attaches to end of stretcher that works slim on wood substrates. Some manufacturers frown on it but, frickem!
I’ve got one. I don’t use it like I used to years ago but I’m not gonna throw it away either.

Great video. More like the kneeless flattener.
Great point. I like the way that sounds
I love my kneeless one of my best investments since I've been laying rug I even use it on steps.
Great idea on the steps
That tool, also known as the “crow” works great for halls and small closets.

Take another piece of carpet and stab it into the teeth and use that as a spacer. This way, it will not dig so deep into your carpet.
@@steierflooring9869 Good idea! Thanks
👍🏻
Let’s go!!!
Domination in floor covering installation!!
Problem is there is installers that use this as a stretcher. Ive met the guy who invented this tool and lets just say his work is s🤠🤠t
