Have a friend in our wood club that has one and doesn't like it. I thought
it would work nice but after his comments decided against it. He is a wood
shop teacher.

I too thought the design sucked ... off the cuff, I would much rather lift,
with my arm over the sheet and using the muscles in my shoulder and entire
arm to carry the load, instead of what appears to be a load on the wrist.
Then again, I saw it at the last woodworking show, but did not try it ... I
could well be missing something.

Tried this at a ww show a couple years ago and it worked well.
I think the commercial, you know, with the young woman, has her
lifting 1/2, but who cares!
I have one of those plastic thingies that lifts from the bottom and it
is always tough to maneuver. I'd buy one but I think I will pass
due to the price.

What a cheesy stereotypical commercial.

If I got one of these my wife would feel that she wasn't needed anymore.
