What Customers Are Saying
The spline roller tool is a low-quality, plastic product that is not suitable for frequent or heavy-duty use. Many customers reported that the plastic components quickly wore out, broke, or became damaged after just a few uses. The tool is described as flimsy, unstable, and prone to causing injuries and damage. However, some customers found it adequate for occasional, light-duty use, noting it was easy to use and got the job done, considering the low price. Overall, a higher-quality metal and wood tool would likely perform better and last longer, especially for frequent screen repair work.

Did the job
Would RecommendThis is a one time use tool for a large screen replacement project. Does the job great, just not designed as long term use.
Not as good as it appears. Use the metal one
Would Not RecommendDoesnt press the spline into the frame very well. Alot of pressure applied and the spline still comes out.
Why are stores even restocking this?
Would Not RecommendThe edges of the tool are sharp and have overhanging plastic edges like cheap coat hangers that cut your hands and the material, when what you want is something rounded off that rolls smoothly. This is terrible. The wheel on the convex side barely rolls at all, out of the box. Wish I could return this. What a waste.
Worst Tool Ever
Would Not RecommendI cut my finger with this BLUNT TOOL trying to install spline, because the force required to use this thing combined with its instability slammed it into my hand with enough force to break skin. Buy something else.
low quality
Would Not RecommendI bought this to rescreen a screen door. The tool tracks were warped and damaged after the first section. I ended up ordering a better screen rolling tool online. Threw this one away.
No No No
Would Not RecommendThis tool isn't the RIGHT TOOL for this job. It took 2 hours to do one screen replacement. I went and borrowed my son-in-laws metal roller and it took 30 minutes. Don't but it!

Nearly Useless
Would Not RecommendProduct failed not even a quarter of the way through the first screen and ruined the brand new screen being installed.
Cheap Plastic
Would Not RecommendShould offer a choice of zero stars because that is what this deserves. Cheap plastic tool that does not last. The wheels wear out and break off before you even get part of one side finished. Lowe's should offer a better quality spline roller. Definitely returning it for refund. Once again, glad there are other choices.
Great tool!
Would RecommendThis is a needed tool for replacing screen. Easy to work with, made the job replacing the screen in my patio slide door go by quickly. I removed a star due to the wheel with the curve in it was missing a notch of plastic. It did not affect operating the tool though. It was just a cosmetic issue. This tool is a must for Do it yourself people!
POS
Would Not RecommendThis thing is junk! Very unfortunate that it was the only thing in stock.
Don't waste the money
Would Not RecommendThis may work if you only have one screen to replace, but I can tell you the plastic wheel was mutilated before I finished one 36×48 frame. Spend a few extra dollars for the upgraded one that works like a dream.
