Does the job!
This product (with the help of a homemade power carpet stretcher) allowed me to restretch 5 rooms of carpet in my home. The padding is not as nice as you'd find on commercial kickers, but you can't beat the price if this tool will be used infrequently. The kicker grabs the carpet extremely well. This allows you to set it very close to your trim, which helps the carpet attach to the tack strip properly.

Great Tools at Dirt Cheap Prices!
Great Item! Recomended Seller!
The construction of the item is made of metal and Thick Metal Spikes and Ridges + the packaging is kinda crappy but for 30 bucks its worth it.
UPS Sent . Got mine in 3 days.

Carpet Kicker
I have been pretty new to Amazon with this buy of the Carpet Kicker being the 3rd purchase. I'd searched locally at the Lowes for one to no avail...did finally find a couple different ones for close to $100. I only needed one to kick in 1 room of carpet and was so happy to find one here on Amazon for 1/4 of that price. I even received it days before I was scheduled to. This was a great product for a great price!!! Thanks Amazon!

Great for the money
I haven't used a lot of different kickers but this one offers a lot for the money. It is solidly built and grips the carpet well. I would have given it 5-stars except for two small details. 1) The knee pad could be a little firmer. The one installed collapses more than I would like when struck. 2) The head should be bent down a little further in the operating position. It is necessary to raise the knee-pad up to get the right "bite" in some applications.

Good Deal for the $$$
This product is exactly what it was advertised to be. I am still surprised at the good price. It has held up well since I started using it. I don't know of anything I could do to improve it.
