BISupplyBob's | Pallet Buster Tool in Yellow with 41" inch Long Handle - Deck Wrecker Pallet Tool Pry Bar, Deck Board Removal Tool

I had a 20 year old deck, the joists are in goodshape, the deck boards needed to be replaced without damaging the joist. This worked great. Pulled up the boards and the nails.

We needed to dismantle our deck and were really struggling to get the deck boards up with just the crowbar (short and long) and didn't want to cut the boards in pieces with a saw. I saw this Pallet Buster Tool being used to pull up deck boards on a YouTube video that seemed to work well and decided to try it. Wow, it made a world of difference. Don't get me wrong, it is a strenuous task but my husband was able to get all the deck boards pulled up in just a couple of hours whereas just a single board was taking that long with the crowbar. This tool is heavy and held up well to the task. The design was very conducive to pulling boards and was easy to use. I'm still giving this 5 stars but my husband did mention that the handle design wasn't great. It was ribbed and kept twisting on him making it more difficult than had it remained in place and was making his hands sore. That being said, this was a very useful tool and definitely worth the money for the time and effort it saved us. I would absolutely recommend this for anyone needing to dismantle a deck. So glad for this purchase.

this tool is a beast for breaking down pallets. can be tricky on pallets with tight spacing between slats, but sacrificing one board is nothing compared to the time and labor saved ( just cut out th worst board with a sawzall). broke down a pallet in less than 10 minutes and didn't split the slats.the rotating parts would get stuck occasionally but I feel that will work out in a short time as the paint wears.highly recommend getting one of these if you are planning on salvaging pallets

I do not review often, but this tool merits it. This tools is fantastic. Breaks an 8 foot long pallet in less than 5 minutes without breaking a plank! Built to last a life time. Highly recommended.

Easy to use & sturdy! Perfect for someone that likes to re-use the boards from pallets. It saves time & saves most of the boards from being destroyed like it would if using a hammer or pry bar.
