Well finally, UPS found my Zipper, I set up the sports bar for next weekend after it didn't show up. I picked it up this afternoon and did my last job with it just to try it.
Wow is all I can say. Am I going to use it in a furnished house....NO, but that is what my DevPro is for, and with out a doubt, I would make better time with my DP than the Zipper. You are taking it out of its element, it was never really made to use it in that situation...so its not the tools fault.
Today I used it on a empty with polycrap carpet and I have to say it was as easy or easier than my RV DHX, and faster TOO. The carpet was drier also,WAY DRIER.
I am not a Zipper pro, and this was only ONE use, so please understand I am only giving my first impression of it.....I thought it was going to be WAY MORE awkward, it was awesome better than I had expected. I can't wait to use it tomorrow on my empties and get some more time with it.
I used it right out of the box, weights and all. Can't wait to try it on what it was really designed for, as I know with out a doubt it will save time, and Missy if she comes will easily be able to use it.
ERIK it is BAD AZZ THANK YOU FOR A AWESOME TOOL.
