User Comments about the T-Jak TJ-104 Your Hard Working Helper

well, worth the price. I replaced the kitchen cabinets and with an average weight of 40 lbs per unit,the T-jack did just what it said it would do. As a DIY woman, I am often in need of an extra hand or muscles on my projects. It is easy to use, adjusts height in seconds, is compact and it is built to last. Anna C in Rapid City, SD T-jack saved my neck, back and fingers.



Nice idea, but the details.This T-jak is continuously separating top and bottom from the main pole.Is hard to look for it at the end of each job.Janusz Waksmanski



I have never installed cabinets, but found how expensive it is to have installed. We were abe to get each cabinet perfectly lined up. We opted to install the cabinets ourselves. This tool made it much easier than expected.



As you are doing now, I read all the reviews and must admit that some made me wonder why the opinions could vary so much. The other thing I will mention to you about these T-Jak tools is to be careful when dismantling them, sliding the threaded part back into the pipe. You'd be wasting your time running around trying to duplicate it. I WOULD SUGGEST THAT YOU LOOK INTO THE "DRYWALL" VERSION OF THIS PRODUCT because at the time of my purchase, it included a two foot extension at the same cost of this non "drywall" version. I am a contractor and can tell you to rest assured that you will not regret this purchase.


Working alone installing cabinets or even the above range top microwaves becomes an accurate "snap" with this product. Some had even mentioned how they could build these themselves with parts from Home Depot. The only thing missing with this tool is a good carrying case of some sort. The threaded piece can pinch your hand if not careful. I ordered this along with the shorter mini brute version and will be leaving the same review for both.


Don't waste your time wondering. I highly recommend both T-Jak products. The "slip" nut is really innovative and ingenious.


This tool paid for itself on the first job I used it.Sure, it's made of steel pipe, and paddles that fasten to the top and bottom. I've NEVER had a problem getting parts from the manufacturer.By the way, to the guy griping about what it is made of, and anyone could do it. Did you. I have two of them now, and a 2' extension "helper" as well. Have you made any tool. Parts. I bought this thing two years ago.


The T-Jak works beautifully. I've used it for everything from installing cabinets, to drywalling ceilings, to hanging those really heavy over the stove microwaves that are fastened to the bottom of the cabinet above them. I'm a sole proprietor, a remodeling contractor, and the majority of the time I work alone. I think this tool is easy enough to use for anyone and kudos to the guy who dreamed it up. It used to be a bear to have wall cabinets on my shoulders trying to get one screw in so I could balance it.No more. Ever juggle one of those. Takes the place of a helper for me, and it is never late or absent.


Sure the Screw device that adjusts with a fine thread can wear out eventually.
