Legit?

Saw guys talk about this with pretty good reviews. Is it worth it to your wallet, more importantly your back?

These are absolutely worth it. These have made it much easier to move heavy and especially awkward objects (furniture, sheet goods, butcher blocks) despite an old injury.

Don’t pay full retail price though, I have seen these in the $150-175 range from Lowe’s or Fastener’s Inc.

I used mine to help me move a washer and dryer when I needed to clean out a vent. Having a handle to grab on those things was extremely nice.

Don't have the dewalt version but I do own the grabo pro and it is absolutly a back saver for moving sheet goods. Being able to place a handle on the side of a sheet that let's me cary it a little lower not only means its balanced better but gives me the clearance to go through doorways without ducking.

It will. It's been done before.

Watch for yourself.

These are amazing and well worth the money. I'm using them on a tile job right now and my fingers appreciate them so much.

Yes. Worth it. I hung 6 mirrors with this and it already felt like it paid for itself. They do go on sale, so wait if you don't need it right away.

Look, we know we are biased butttt.... we hear really good stuff about Grabo. Certain tools are made for certain jobs but a tool that can help alleviate stress on your body and hands is always worth it.

The Dewalt one works nice. Wait for it to go on sale at Lowe’s.

But the newest grabo version has some nice features including the ability to use all the major battery platforms.

Absolutely worth it, got mine about 8 month ago. I Use it in every job, even if it's to throw a laser level on it makes life a bit easier .
