Has anyone ever used this tool in an emergency?

Not yet and never hope to use it, but its piece of mind to have it incase it ever was needed

I have not. It is very powerful and light. If it is dry it should do a gret job in gutters. First time I used it I was blown away!!'

You know I didn't even check that. I would think so because it is a Fiskars tool and most of them do. So far its been a good tool. Just be sure to not angle it when you push it in the ground, it work a ton better with pushing it straight in the ground. Gets a better grasp of what you are trying to pull out.

No I have not. I did find a tool tray that works in this unit and have had no problems with this tool box.

I have not done that, but it is wonderful for all the things I use it for such as for soups and anything else otherwise requiring chopping. You have to be careful not to over pulse it as it will actually liquefy things. Saves a great deal of time. Great kitchen tool.

We LOVE these tools...to the extent that we've also bought them for gifts. Easy on the hands. I think it depends on the tool whether or not you have to hold the button continuously. It is a safety issue. You don't want to accidentally start it, or too easily start it. Buy it. Try it. You could always send it back (you won't)...

I have, and it is holding up fine. I haven't used it as an every day tool, but i have used it regularly.

Not that I can ascertain. As I mentioned in my review, this appears to be a no-load "go/no-go" tool for quick triage. I agree that no-load measurements are not definitive; however they are not completely without utility.

I had given my tool to the men trying to get the driver out....I only suspect it being used as something similar to a hammer....hope this helps....I did not get my tool back or talk to the people...we just got the driver out...

No, but I have used it for about anything else imaginable in the kitchen. I don't know how I ever got along without this tool. I have two and I carefully wash them by hand immediately after use because I never want to damage them or be without them. I treat them with the care I give my most highly priced/prized kitchen tools because I respect the design and quality so much. I made a carrot cake yesterday. This was the tool. Fantastic. Easy to manage. Does the job with less effort. Honest.

In my 26 yrs. of business as an owner and tech, I haven't seen a tool yet nor can think of a savvy way for extraction. Looks like a cylinder head removal. Real bummer!!! My heart would be sinking, too.

This lighter is great for emergency situations when you don't have a regular lighter on hand.

It gets the job done in an emergency. I keep it in the car. Both my girls have never had trouble using it but I wouldn't call it comfortable.

I will only use this tool for emergency(road side) repairs or minor things like tighten a few screws. Here's my reasons: 1) I have an old expensive racing road bike and is difficult to find parts and I m afraid some of the tool might stripe the components 2) the handle on the tool is not very long so it's difficult to apply even pressures when turning and it might slip and accidentally stripe the parts I m working on. I wouldn't use this to assemble a bike but I carry this tool every time I ride since it contains almost everything I needed. Also, it's very well built.

No. In fact, I hired a man to cut down some overgrown shrubs. His chain saw did not work. I gave him the WORX to use. He looked at me like I was insane. The WORX did the job!! Other than that, I have used it mostly for very small jobs. I really like it and feel safe using the chain saw.

I have not, but I own the tool, and I live near beaches. If you are talking about beach grass, I think you'd spend a lot of time disentangling the grass. I found it excellent for breaking up ordinary grass for new flower beds or vegetable plantings when I only need a small area. It has a reasonable amount of power, but long grass tangles in the prongs. Mow first.

I would think the tool is too 'light' weight for that type of function. Never tried it for that. If it starts to smell, shut it off.
