What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this flooring installation kit as essential for laminate and vinyl plank projects, with most highlighting how spacers maintain consistent expansion gaps and the pull bar effectively aligns planks without edge damage. Many first-time installers report significantly easier, more professional results. However, some users report the tapping block breaks easily on first use, and a few note spacers require doubling and taping to function properly. Despite these durability concerns, most customers consider it indispensable for floating floor installations.

Would Not RecommendIt clearly shows a mallet on the box. Does it come with one? No. Also the pullbar is not even bent to 90 degrees so when you try to use it to pull everything tight it just pops off the end and scratches the laminate. Nothing a hammer and vice can't fix but you shouldn't have to. It's a bent piece of metal, how can you get that wrong? Spacer blocks are ridiculously useless. Save the headache, buy the individual pieces you need and skip this utter trash.

Kit is Great - Needs a Hammer?
Would RecommendThis kit has done everything I've needed it to on my SmartCore 12"x24" LVT 320 square foot install in my kitchen, bath and entry areas. The shims are actually quite good because the interlocking teeth allow two to be stacked to provide good stability and extra thickness if you need it. It doesn't include a hard-faced hammer which you will need in order to use the tapping block and pull bar tools. The rubber mallet is great for securing the tile in place after it's in position but can't be use...
Easy install
Would RecommendThis product helped me to install a new floor plank. Worked like a a champ. Price was perfect because I was on a straight budget for the overall work.
