5.0 out of 5 stars Great Tool For Removal AND Installing Siding, November 11, 2002

I just got mine and it's already one of my favorite siding tools. It's designed for removal of vinyl siding, which it does a great job of, but I was equally impressed with how well it can help to install siding. As far as removal goes, slip it on the end of the siding and give a little tug, and your siding is loose. For pieces that go into J channel around windows and installing narrow pieces this tool works great for installing. It helps tug the pieces just right in order for them to snap together properly. For anyone who does siding, this tool is a must have tool

5.0 out of 5 stars Do You NEED A Review ,To Decide If You Want This Tool???, August 31, 2005

Hey Man, If you need this tool, nothing else is going to work. As far as an actual review, well, it's better than the previous model. The handle covering kept slipping off of the old one. The way this new one is made, I believe it would be virtually impossible for this handle cover to slip off. This gives you more opportunity to put some power behind your pull and rip siding off at a much faster rate. A "Must Have" tool. I've also found that if I have it on me all the time(in the toolbelt pocket),there are thousands of uses for this tool. Just like my 5-in-1 painters tool, I keep it with me and use it daily.
