Wrote off power stretchers for 12 yrs, then a 3-day job in Dayton changed my mind
I spent 12 years swearing a knee kicker and a good pair of hands could handle anything, and I'd argue with anyone who said different. Two weeks ago I took a 3-day job in Dayton, about 1,400 sq ft of berber through four bedrooms and a hall, and my knees were shot by lunch on day one. The homeowner had a power stretcher in his garage from a remodel and said just use it, so I did, and the carpet laid flat with zero ripples on the first pass. I finished that whole upstairs in about 6 hours instead of the 2 days I'd budgeted, and I didn't have to go back once for a stretch call. I still keep the kicker on the truck for closets and tight spots, but I was wrong about the big rooms. Anybody here made the switch late and got a model they actually like that won't eat my whole paycheck?
