This is a great bit of kit if you are wanting to strip down pallets for fire word or other products. It is not that heavy but the handle is just the right length to give you a lot of power at the business end. I would recommend this product to anyone who has pallets to strip or any other type of deconstruction work.

This device is good at breaking up pallets if you don't want to re use the wood. However,lifting the planks in order to keep them whole is more of a tricky task to achieve. I have found that the tines need to be longer to slide under most of the plank being prised. As it is due to the way it (the breaker) is made and where the heel sits, the tines sit further back and away from the plank being lifted. So therefore, when levering only the first third of the wood gets lifted and then splits against the resistance of the remaining nails. I understand the need of a pivot/fulcrum point yet the tine length could be much longer in order as not to split the plank. It's useful and does the job-sort of, I had greater expectations, but ultimately ended up disappointed hence the three star rating.

if you like myself break pallets to use there timber you are saving on raw materials. i used to break pallets the old way hammer bolster chisel and plenty of elbow grease not to mention skinned knuckles and bruises. i delayed purchasing this item for too long and regret it. simple to use, just hook under the boards rest on the spar and lever down, it with a little pressure applied lifts the boards and straightens the nails holding them dow2n with ease. its easy to store saves broken boards a pleasure to use, it will pay for its self in no time.

Was very sceptical about these bars but going through hours of killing myself with crowbars and splitting and ruining most of the pallets...felt I had no other option! I'm very impressed..Yes I still get the occasional splits and damage but can fly through pallets which would have taken me hours. There's good leverage with plenty of power if used correctly. Purchase one...you won't be disappointed

I bought this to break up pallets but have also used it to lift heavy slabs and also found it makes getting metposts out of the ground a doddle, I’m a 65yr old 5ft 3” woman and got 5 metposts out in about 20 minuets no hole digging they just levered up with this bar with very little effort. I’m sure it will have many more uses in the future.
