 awesome toolJul 16, 2010
The gorilla gripper is amazing to use and so easy. one of the best tools i have purchased. wow!!
Works!Jun 16, 2010
Moving 3/4 inch hardwood plywood by yourself without damage was not possibile for me before this. I would let one edge drop and a corner would be dented. This grips the edge and it is as easy as moving around a 2X4. As I get older I like to find smart ways to work rather than macho ways. With this, I'll get another 10 to 15 years of woodworking out of this body!

Hold sheets of material good. Just be prepared to carry a heavy load with one arm! I finally wound up carrying obs sheets with two hands for better control. Maybe for lighter loads it would be great. Works as it is designed perfectly.
EZ to use and you can watch where you are goingApr 07, 2010
The thing works great on 8ft drywall. Today was the first time i used it.To me the best reason to use this tool is that you carry the sheet of material must lower so you can see where in the HELL you are going.No more hitting the tops of doorways.So Ez to use a monkey could do it.

Very helpful toolFeb 09, 2010
I read over a lot of reviews, especially the 1 - 2 star ones and decided to give this a try anyway.
We run a custom cabinet shop and work with heavy sheet goods like 3/4" mdf. We load our sheet goods from the
truck right on to our panel saw but even so working with these sheet goods is tough on our aging wrists and usually
one guy will work with the panel saw.
The tool works as described, however you cannot unweight the sheet at all or it will slip right out. Example -
on the first sheet I tried -3/4" MDF I wanted to shift my grip slightly on the tool to get a better
hand grip. I snapped the weight of the board up slightly to do this and the split second
that the weight of the board was gone as it "bounced" it slipped out of the gripper and dropped. No toes crushed so
I tried again, this time I lifted up quickly on the board and bounced the weight again on purpose and it slipped
right out. So moral to the story is go slow and steady, if you need to change a grip or body position -set the
board down and then lift again. We watched the video on the gorilla gripper site and if you watch he never
unweights the board, and moves very smoothly and slowly and we know why. I'm not sure about
using it on ladders or scaffolding, but I would certainly give it a try with the above comment in mind.
But now we always use the gripper to handle our sheet goods. We have had
no problem with the slick MDF slipping out of the unit as noted on other reviews. Hope this helps your decision....
