Had a project where I had to remove 15 old footers concreted in coral and replace on my deck remodel project. Looked into renting a jackhammer at $75 a day and knew it would take me about a week of use with the progression of the project. Saw this jackhammer on line and decided to try as it was way less expensive to buy than rent for a week. For the money spent, it is fabulous!! I'm 73 years old and it is the perfect weight that I can handle but heavy enough to demo about any smaller project one might have. For the money, one of the best values that I ever bought of anything!
