The Stanley Story
The Stanley Works, originally a bolt and door hardware manufacturing company located in New Britain, Connecticut; was founded in 1843 by Frederick T. Stanley. A few years later, in 1857, Frederick’s cousin, Henry Stanley, founded The Stanley Rule and Level Company. In 1920, The Rule and Level Company merged with The Stanley Works and would go on to become it’s famous Hand Tools Division. Over the years, The Stanley Works has produced some of the most innovative and useful tools ever made. Among these tools are the Bailey Plane, the Surform shaper, the PowerLock tape rule and most recently the FatMax line of products. Today, more than ever, Stanley continues to be an industry leader in tool innovation. In 2001, Stanley introduced more than 100 new products, bringing to 400 the number of new products introduced in the past four years. As a direct result of Stanley’s commitment to excellence, Stanley was awarded the Prestigious Golden Hammer Award, presented for New Product Innovation in both 2000 and 2001.

A must have....but with one mod
By M. Ward
Agreed, this is a must have for moving big flat panels. I know of several guys having ripped their biceps carrying plywood the conventional method, by hand. I bought this not wanting to suffer injury the same way and after 40 sheets of ply and 40 sheets of sheetrock I am glad I did.
One word of warning, and the reason I dropped a star rating, if carrying panels up stairs be careful as the panels, especially plywood, tend to slide. I used double faced tape to apply an old sanding belt which provided plenty of friction to prevent sliding. Aside from that, buy this thing and save yourself from possible injury.

Handy Helper
By KJN
Provides just enough length for grabbing the bottom of a 4'x8' sheet (in lieu of longer arms) so one person can carry it. Sturdy enough to lift 3/4" 7-ply birch plywood (pretty heavy). It's made of heavy duty plastic, so it doesn't add a lot of weight to what you're lifting.
