I have used this tool to demo a flagstone/concrete patio and about 80 feet of sidewalk. I first tried the sledgehammer/prybar route, but that was too slow and tiresome. I got the job done by myself in less than 8 hours with this tool. It is quieter than gas/air powered hammers, but I still wore ear protection. It is easy to operate and not very fatiguing-the most tiring part is picking it up and setting it down. It is heavy, but I could lift it into the trunk of my car by myself. With 2 people lifting it is a breeze and the cart makes transporting it very easy. I ran it hard all day and it never complained- and this was a pretty beat up rental tool. I highly recommend this tool if electricity is available-it is much more convenient than gas and compressed air hammers. Plus it is powerful and durable enough for all but the biggest demolition jobs.

My company has been renting this tool from a place which still has some from many years back and we have never had a problem with it. This tool will easily demo thick slabs. We're finally swallowing the price for a new one; wish we would've bought one five rentals ago.

I use t his breaker every day from digging to breaking up old concrete footer and it always gets the job i'v had it for over a year and havent had to service it yet I imagine its getting near that time but it has plenty of power to bust upsmaller portions(less than 2 yards of 3500 psi) concrete its also gtreat for bustin through shale and rock whilk digging. I know the one reviewer said it doesnt have the balls of a pneumatic but a pneumatic will cost you ten grand and you have to be able to get the heavy compressor near the job which can be a pain in the ass. I still use the pnuematic when i have alot of concrete to bust up or if it really hard 6000psi fiber reinforced stuff but for most smaller jobs this has more than enough power and the price ir right. I guess its sick when you say $1450 is cheap but in the demolition business nothing that works well and last is cheap so you learn to appreciate quality tools that allways start and thats was this hammer does
