5.0 out of 5 stars pure awesome December 7, 2008

By Daniel Mauro

i was surfing the web one day when i came across this glorious tool. i knew immediately that i had to have one. i waited a few days, calling around to local hardware stores to see if they carried it. unfortunately i could only find its smaller brothers. they were not for me, i needed the full size tool of destruction. so i looked online and amazon had the best price (plus i got free shipping!!!). i bought it and it arrived. i took it out and checked it out. pure awesomeness. i took it around with me. showed everyone i knew. they were all jealous of me for having something so awesome.

my buddy calls me one day and asks me to come over and help him take down the shed out behind his house. i go over there, fubar in hand, and i start destroying the thing. there is nothing so satisfying, as smashing things up. and this is definitely the tool to do it. i had half the thing down before my friend even got started.

i give this thing 5 stars. because it does exactly what its supposed to do. and it is perfect at what it does. so whether you're looking to demolish something...or you're getting weapons togeather for the zombie appocalypse...this tool is for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Next generation crowbar September 16, 2010

By Harvey Hacker

I have had this tool in my semi truck for several months. I find myself using it nearly every other day to do various tasks at work. From hammering a piece of rebar that was sticking up in the parking lot, to getting extra leverage in turning a container lock, to levering a semi truck tire in place, to lifting a 20fopt cargo container a half inch to align it with the trailer lock, it does it all.

I originally got this tool to use at work where there is no ambulance service or jaws of life. I now find this tool more useful than the ordinary crowbar it replaced.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ultimate hand demolition tool March 3, 2009

By S. Ray

This is great for making quick work of the demolition phase of remodelling projects. Easy to control in the right hands. For some, it almost encourages them to get too vigorous so you definitely want to supervise whoever you let use it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding! September 20, 2011

The Stanley FUBAR Extreme III is a very well designed tool for use anywhere maximum impact and speed of demolition is required. The tool, manufactured in Taiwan, is very well made with a nice powder-coated metallic finish which has held up very well after use (barely a scratch showing after three hours of decking removal). Overall handling and balance are very good, albeit probably a bit heavy for carrying up ladders or for those looking for maximum portability (original FUBAR or FUBAR II fits the bill here). This tool, due to its 30 inch length and head design, can split 2x12 boards in half, twist decking and joists out of metal brace supports, etc. Probably a very good emergency tool as well to extricate yourself from a car or building. Although it is significantly more expensive than alternative wrecking and crow bars, it has no equal in its effectiveness. Good job Stanley!

4.0 out of 5 stars FUBAR Fun November 14, 2008

By Fred Martinez

Overall a great tool to add to the kit. It could use some type of sling attachment for easier transport as lugging this thing around can become a bit tiresome. It is designed and weighted well for all uses and provides a superior level of destruction than most any other hand tool.

The Fubar III is an amazing tool! I was looking for a wrecking bar with more versatility than a standard crow bar or sledge hammer & this baby definitely fit the bill. Its a very solid tool with a nice balance to it & its not excessively heavy which cuts down on fatigue. Originally I was interested in the Stanley Forcible Entry model but decided on this one since it seemed to be very similar. I'm happy to report that it does in fact share many of the same features like the gas shut off, hydrant wrench, spanner wrench, and best of all it costs a lot less.

5.0 out of 5 stars So much more awesome than the picture suggests July 28, 2012

By DDC VINE™ VOICE

Wow. This thing is so much more thick and heavy than Amazon's picture suggests. I recently used my FuBar to demo a woodshed behind my house. It worked spectacularly! The sledgehammer face allows you to generate a lot of power with a relatively small swing. The weight of the head conveniently does a lot of work for you. The pry bar end works great for separating boards, particularly because of the length of the tool - you can get a lot of leverage out of it. It is great having both tools in one unit that is already right in your hand.

I've seen some reviews almost suggesting that this could be a home defense weapon. I'm not sure about that, not because the FuBar wouldn't be up to it, but because I think it'd be hard to use in a hallway. Really, it's more of a medieval weapon for an open field! That being said, I keep mine under my bed in case there is a fire or storm or whatever and I need to extricate my family from the house. I totally love this thing and I highly recommend it to you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect tool for the zombie apocalypse December 22, 2009

By G. Tunak

A hammer for skull-bashing? Wrenches for utility and salvaging from abandoned areas? A crowbar for prying boarded-up windows for shelter from the herds? What more could you ask for in a tool to help you survive the zombie apocalypse?

A blade and bullets. That's what. And that's why this only got four stars from me. But at least this lightens my load from eight tools to one extremely impressive, handy weapon.

The only other thing is that this is a pretty long and hefty item, so if you need to, you could use one of the shorter ones. I prefer this while I still have the strength to carry it, and it offers more weight behind a swing of the sledgehammer to smash zombie heads. You'll need lots more practice than if you were to use a shorter FuBar, though.
