Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased this for a 600 square foot, 1/2" thick engineered flooring installation in my home. For $22 my expectations for quality weren't that high. I'm originally from the electrical trades and rarely buy low quality tools. I've installed 3/4" hardwood flooring before but this was my first engineered flooring project. I figured for $22 bucks a lower quality kit will get me started and if it doesn't last, then lesson learned and I'll purchase a better one if needed. I have to say the quality exceeded my expectations. The pull bar is heavy gauge and has felt pads so it doesn't scratch the floor as you use it. I also was expecting a fisher-price type hammer but the hammer is a decent quality FOR WHAT IT'S DESIGNED TO DO. The spacers came in handy as well. Keep in mind....the pull bar, hammer and tapping block are not meant to endure heavy blows - they're meant to "tap" pieces and ensure a snug fit. Realistically, you use a little more force than just tapping, but you're doing something wrong if you need to whale the hammer into the block. I can only imagine those that said the bar bent or the tapping block or hammer fell apart are subjecting them to forces they're not designed for. I think some people are simply inexperienced with tools and over estimate their limitations - use tools for what they're designed for. Anyone busting these tools is clearly not using them properly. So that being said....I wouldn't buy this for professional use and I'd recommend it ONLY for installing laminates, vinyl and engineered flooring - NOT for 3/4" hardwood flooring - you'd need a heavier-duty set for that. But for a few DIY laminate/engineered wood floor projects, I think it's a good buy. This kit will be around for my next engineered flooring job upstairs. Update Jan 2021: I just completed another engineered flooring project upstairs (720 sq ft) using the same kit. It's still good enough to keep, even though my flooring is all done. See the pictures of the tools AFTER installing over 1300 square feet of engineered hardwood flooring. I seriously don't know what people are doing to break them. Obviously inexperienced at installing floors. NOTE: I purchased this item on Amazon for full price and have no affiliation to the seller. I try to write helpful, unbiased and insightful reviews because I also read reviews prior to making my own buying decisions. I notice many reviews lack helpful information, are not well written or give poor reviews based on not reading directions, inexperience or failing to read the product details prior to purchasing. Writing valuable reviews helps pay it forward.
