Update: I finally bought a proper knee kicker after years of renting.

Spent about $450 on a Roberts model, and it paid for itself on the first big commercial job. Anyone have a favorite brand for residential work?

What kind of commercial job was it? I'm curious when a kicker really beats a power stretcher.

Honestly, I've always found a good power stretcher works better for me.

You say a power stretcher works better for you, but I'm curious about the "for me" part. What kind of carpet or room layout makes you pick it over a kicker every time?
