"My boat is parked on a public street so this is a nice deterrent to keep any thieves from trying to steal my boat."
"I was looking for another layer of security on my Triton snowmobile trailer and found one of these at a local sled expo."
"Boy, I did save a lot on Amazon.com instead of buying it in Canada, even with our poor exchange rate."
"A truck pulled into our field at 4:00am on a Sunday morning where both job trailers & older jet skis & pontoon boat are stored, My wife was getting ready for work and heard them make 4 passes before they pulled into the field & turned on the lights to the house which they did not like and they where able to back up down the road about 300' to get away, I'm sure they were lost or going to relocate one of our trailers for better storage."
"Now I feel more secure that would be thieves will not even bother breaking in just find a brake lock in place."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I have just purchased 4 of the Super version of these for heavy duty tractor, truck and trailer usage."
"I have also recently started pulling a log splitter and the work well for that too."
"I've used it in my garage and it works well as long as it is on something like a rug or taped down so it will not move easily."
"I would feel comfortable using them for our car, but had purchased with the intention of using them on new RV and our pickup truck and am not sure they are quite sturdy enough for the larger vehicles."
"I like to place one of these chocks behind one left and one right wheel on my 5th wheel."
"This would let you lay the rope outward where it would be more easily reached at retrieval time (even after kicking the chock inward to dislodge it) and would give you more leverage to dislodge a stuck chock without the step of moving the trailer first."
"It is a piece of plastic that helps prevent a vehicle from rolling."
"It wasn't much of a tug either; what's the point of having those bands for removing these chocks if they're just crimped together with a 2 bit piece of wire."

"These wheel chocks were purchased to replace another brand chock I’ve used for a while but they kept breaking on me."
"Yes they do smell when you first get them out of the package, but I keep mine in the garage and they didn't smell after a week or two."
"Perfect for my 30' trailer, grabs the tire and asphalt perfect."
"only have had for a few weeks....thought all was okay until I noticed yesterday that one chock has developed a split in the rubber starting at the top edge...not a structural issue yet but could become one.."

"We purchased this cart to carry our Diono car seat (and kid) when traveling through airports. Place the car seat on the cart, strap a bungee cord through the bottom of the car seat (as you would a seat belt strap in the car) and pull and secure both ends of bungee to each other behind the cart."
"After injuring my elbow hefting heavy shopping bags up to my mother's assisted living apartment (trying to avoid multiple trips), decided it was time for a hand cart."
"Keep in mind it is lighter duty and you won't be moving a fridge with it, but as seen in the picture, a case of water and 2 boxes of paper seems like a very reasonable load."
"There are plenty of places to hook bungee cords and that is excellent."
"I purchased this item to make it easier to haul cases of bottled water, etc."
"I only use it for toting boxes to the post office, so the fact it compacts to such a small size and sits in my trunk without taking up much space is a big plus for me."

Best Pallets
Articulating head gently removes pallet boards without breaking or splitting the wood. Deluxe pallet buster is designed for disassembling pallets easily.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I was previously using a combination of a saw, hammer and crow bar and it was probably taking me 20-30 minutes per pallet of screwing around to get it taken apart. This pallet buster has allowed me to get most pallets completely deconstructed in under 5 minutes."
"The only problem is it leaves one side of the plank damaged and is a tough one person job trying to hold and cut through the pallet and nails. Bottom line, if you are looking to work smarter and not harder this tool is a must have for reclaiming free pallet lumber in a simple sustainable way."
"I started taking Mine apart with a Flat Bar and a Sawzall, which worked but VERY TIME Consuming. Some of the Lighter Pine ones-THE Buster Will Pull the Nails through the Board without breaking them."
"However, considering it took me nearly an hour to strip a pallet with hand tools, and that doesn't count how much I managed to reduce to firewood, I'd consider that a big improvement. The forks stay flat on the surface I'm stripping, allowing the wood to peel off in a single straight motion. It won't save rotten or splitting wood; you still need to check your process to make sure you've picked a pallet worth the effort of stripping."
"What I mean is, the bottom two teeth swivel which allows the plank, no matter the angle, to be fully pressed upward without breaking the board in any way."
"However, the feet are very wide and do not fit between the planks of any pallets where the planks are spaced less than 1" apart from one another."

Find Best Price at Amazon"Introduction: My Loader/tractor: LA480 Kubota loader, L2900 Kubota tractor (30 hp). As many have remarked, shipping was super fast - mine was shipped out the same day I ordered it, good job Titan! Also as some have commented on, there are no instructions, not even a one page "thank you for your order, if you can't figure out how to use the product, please call us, etc., etc, bla, bla." My guess is Titan figured if they provide no instructions, specifications, nothing technical about the product, perhaps that might shield them from product liability issues. I believe it is a long standing law that country of origin must be clearly stated on the product if it is produced outside of the U.S. As a bit of an amateur welder (MIG, TIG, stick, and gas), the welds aren't pretty but it appears they are adequate however the only way to know is to slice through one of the welds and look at the penetration."
"I was able to unbox and install them in less than 5 minutes with no problem. I've picked up a pallet with a 50 gallon fuel tank on it, a few large hardwood logs, and a very large pile of tree limbs and brush with no problem whatsoever. These are a great option for occasional fork use (I primarily use mine for logs and brush) without needing to swap my bucket for a fork attachment, and they are reasonably priced, comparatively."
"I've used these to move a crated up 6 man Hot tub around my property with no problem and just unloaded a 20 x 30 heavy construction canvas winter building that was crated up off the trailer and around the property with no issues."
"I purchased the pallet forks with stabilizing bar for use on my John Deere 1023E sub-compact utility tractor and bucket. The forks and stabilizing bar are heavy, solid, and well constructed/welded. I followed a previous reviewers advise (indicated received advise from Titan) and put a ratcheting tie-down strap around the stabilizing bar and bucket. I called Titan Distributing the next morning and they provided excellent customer service and immediately sent out a stabilizing bar and it was here in 4 days (thank you Evan and Craig!)."

Reviews

The one suggestion I would make is to mount a 2 x 4 between two joists, if needed so that the pulley component is directly over the ladder rung it is attached to."
"I have a 28 foot Fiberglass Type IA Werner extension ladder that I had laying on top of a project car for months. I finally needed to find a permanent home for the ladder since I had some extensive engine work to perform on my wife's Mini Cooper and the Jeep had to be moved from the garage and the Mini to take it's spot. Once received, I opened the box and had it installed and ladder mounted in 20 minutes."
"Instructions came only for french and spanish; I emailed Racor's (not Amazon's) customer service requesting English in pdf format and they provided it the very next day. That big ole ladder is probably one of the most underused pieces of important homeowner equipment that was the bane of my storage yet I could not get rid off. I like it so much that I did not subtract one star (I was going to give it only four, but its pluses outweigh its negatives) for the follwoing cons: I think the bracket could have been more robust. Here's a frame of reference: The J-hook is long enough that my Ryobi impact driver/drill had room to fit inside the "J" to attach the lag bolts to the joist."
"The unit installed easily and the supplied mounting hardware was adequate although I replaced the supplied screws with slightly longer ones to accommodate the double layer of drywall in my garage ceiling."
