This is an awesome back saver
By Gar K. Nelson
I got this as a Christmas gift and finally had a chance to get out to the Black Rock desert and test it out on the playa. I used it for pulling out concrete form stakes and for pulling 24" lengths of 3/8" rebar. The stake puller was outstanding on the form stakes. We had put up a large two pole Army surplus tent, and anchored it with form stakes. Extracting all but one of the stakes took only slightly longer than the time it took to walk around the tent. The stakes popped out of the playa like magic. One stake was driven deep, and at a steep angle, and took several trys to get out, but it came out too. My previous method of removing stakes was with a vise-grips, or channel-locks and was very labor intensive. This is so much better. I also tried the puller on small rebar tent stakes. While it worked, the puller did bend the stakes around a bit. It should be noted though, that 3/8" rebar is much smaller than the minimum recommended diameter for the tool. When you're using the tool in a manner its not designed for, you should expect odd things to happen. Overall, I think this is a great tool, especially when used within its design limitations. Its the sort of tool I wish I'd have had years ago. Its also a sure bet to make you the most popular person in camp when its time to pack up and go home.

Great but with rerservations
By Bruce MacDermott
We loved this stake puller until the gripping edges lost their bite and started slipping on the smooth stakes we were using to support our structures at Burning Man. The pivoting gripping piece should be made of harder metal. That would have made this one a 5 star tool.Works great with Re-Bar, but the form stakes we use gave it problems.

Got for Burning Man...so far works great!
By Justin Robertson
Just like a couple other reviewers, I got this to use at Burning Man. I'm pulling 3/4 inch concrete stakes with it. I haven't actually used it at the playa yet, but I have tested it at home in regular dirt (which is really a tougher job), and this worked great to remove the stakes. It would be nice if the notch that the stake fits in was a bit smaller, but I noticed that it I place the base of the puller at an angle it works best.The handle-pipe of the puller is hollow, so you can insert a longer pipe inside it for even more mechanical advantage. I certainly haven't found this to be necessary, but I think it's cool that the option is available.edit: 10/20/2010I used this at Burning Man this year and it was wonderful! It pulled out 2 and 3 foot long stakes like they weren't even in the ground. I didn't need to insert a longer pipe or anything.edit: 3/24/2012I used this again at Burning Man in 2011 and, again, it was amazing! This thing is not rusting or otherwise showing age.
