Tools and Hardware Reviews of FastCap 3rd Hand Support System 57-to-144-Inches, 2-pack #3HAND5

Customer Review: Horrible Buy
Summary: 1 Stars

I used one of these worthless things once. It was used to hold up one end of a single 2x6 and it was unable to do that. Besides being incredibly cheaply made, they are unable to do the job. I just can't figure out what anyone else used them for.

Customer Review: Idea is great, Design is cheap
Summary: 3 Stars

I have 4 of these units, which so far I've mainly used for enclosing working areas... Even that, I always seem to have to fight with these devices... The rubber legs will pop off or the handles will stick or the locking pin will engage as I'm trying to extend the pole (Frustrating)... Not a terrible product, but when time is money the last thing you want to do is have to spend more time than needed just trying to set these jacks up. Most all of the plastic components are already showing signs of breakage... I think it will be just a matter of a little more usage before they will no longer work at all..

Customer Review: Maintenance Made Easy
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great tool. I am a maintenance guy and I use them for all sorts of things. I looked at the Rockler version, but it doesn't go as high...it only goes to 10' and 3rd hand goes to 12'. Also, the feet pivot all the way around on the 3rd hand and the Rockler one only pivots one way. I prefer the 3rd hand and it seems heavier duty too.

Customer Review: Maximize your profits
Summary: 5 Stars

Fire that lame helper that you have been paying to stand around until you need him to hold something up for you while you tack it, tape it, screw it or nail it. The third hand has eliminated the need for me to have some moron around when installing cabinets, crown moulding or masking off a room with a dust shield. Well worth the investment.

Customer Review: Not the best product
Summary: 1 Stars

I ordered two 3rd Hand's from Amazon and two Multi-Quick Supports from Rockler Woodworking. The Rockler is a much better product. The 3rd Hand supports only 70 pounds while the Rockler supports 150 pounds. The 3rd Hand's feet are plastic, while the Rockler feet consist of metal frames covered with rubber pads. The Rockler is also much, much easier to extend. And best of all the Rockler does less damage to your wallet.
