Laminate Wood Flooring Installation Kit with Extra Strong Solid Tapping Block Heavy Duty (43, Upgraded Fiberglass Handle Mallet)

These tools made installing this floor MUCH easier! Dont get me wrong, the time spent on my knees was tough, but worth it. You will see in one of the photos, the black foam kneeling pad which saved my 69 year old knees. Note to seller - Include one of these thick foam matts in your kit! Or, at least bundle it!The tools that were in this kit are easy to use. It saved a lot of the mating edges of the luxury Vinyl Planks I installed. And after the install was complete, the tools are ready for other tasks. The dead blow hammer is especially useful for replacing paint and stain tops and nudging without scarring wood into place. Well constructed tools and easily a great value for the money!

Works great with flooring projects

I had an older set I could not find so I ordered this set because of price and the same day delivery.It was very good. I would have given it 4-1/2 stars but does not look like I can.The hammer was a little lighter than I like but very work able and the contour gauge works but not good quality. I don’t see it lasting to long. But a have a couple so it’s not an issue for me. But for someone who is going to use this often you may want to invest in a better contour gauge. By try it first it may be useable for you.

This is an essential tool if you are installing LVP or some similar floating floor. I wish the spacers didn't have ridges on them cause sometimes it causes them to get stuck...but other than that this is perfect! The value is surely there and the dead blow hammer is not too cheap either. I haven't used the tool for the special cuts but it is something I am sure will come in helpful for other things I do so it is nice to have around the house/workshop.

Installed engineered hardwood floors with this (Mohawk) all the pieces worked as advertised. While they give you a bunch of spacers, I had to cut the number in half and use two per placement space to get the correct S.p.A. ing Mohawk wanted.Hammer is good, held up and even busted my thumb. ( it was my fault).Contour gauge works, although it’s plastic.. and I was skeptical… but it held up, and still as good as new. Offset metal bar is stron, doesn’t bend! Flat plastic panel knocker is good, watch which side you put down on the flooring or you could damage the flooring.I’m a total novice at flooring….but you wouldn’t know that to look at it. Use these tools right and your floor will come out awesome too!
