Hit The Spot
Would RecommendThis hammer can crush taco shells and celery with one swift blow from my friend Thor. If you're looking to make taco salad, hit that g spot or just crush some celery, this Is the hammer.

Hammer
Would RecommendLight weight, great for installing floating gloors

Functional but poorly made and expensive
Would Not RecommendThis hammer works as advertised. It is a fine "dead blow" type hammer that is designed not to leave mark when you hit something. It is not comfortable in my hand due to the plastic end cap on the handle. It could be a little heavier for certain flooring applications. There are better dead blow hammers out there for a similar price.

Great tool for the right application
Would RecommendExactly what I needed to get the laminate tongue and groove flooring down. This hammer isn’t like any other hammer. It taps the flooring with just enough force to lock it in but not bust the flooring. I would recommend using the laminate flooring installation kit along with this hammer(I don’t know why they aren’t sold together) to put down your flooring. Great product!

Very pleased I decided to get this hammer
Would RecommendSure, you could use a regular hammer, but this tool is made of durable plastic with shifting weight in the head. You get a little added boost with each hit and far less noise than a steel hammer.
