Keyfit Tools Paver Puller PRO 9" Contractor Grade 4140 Heat Treated & Case Hardened Steel w/Joint Scraper Micro Teeth & Gripper Slots Paver Extraction Removal Raise Bricks & Pavers Locked by Edging

On of our pavers began to tilt around the edge of the pool resulting from the sand base not being compacted we in this area. I was until to utilize the paver puller on this paver, however, I found one one row over that had sufficient space on the sides in which to insert the paver pullers. With very little effort I was able to move the paver up high enough to grasp with my hand and pull the paver all the way out. I pulled out pavers working my way to the problem paver. Installed sand to fill the void, leveled the sand and reinstalled the problem paver which was now level with those around it. Filled in the other pavers that were pulled and the final result was the all pavers are now level with the edge of the pool.

Work excellent

Useless

The design of this tool very functional for the rounded and less thick bricks. I have non grouted standard bricks in my backyard that needed to be cleaned. Some of them were impossible to clean so I wanted to flip them and use the cleaner side. I needed a better tool than two screwdrivers to lift the standard brick out of its setting. This tool was a bit too thick to get between the brick, so I returned them. If my brick were not as high the tool might have worked. I gave them a four star because they would work for the newer bricks, mine are about twenty years old. Hope this info helps with your project.

Normal Pavers have very thin (~1/32”) ridges on all sides which hold them apart only ~1/16” to allow very fine “Paver Sand” to fill the space between them. Additionally, pavers are radiused on all top edges, leaving the flat sides (which must be gripped to pull them) roughly 1/4” below the top surface. (See photos) These “Pullers” are 1/8” thick which prevents them from fitting in the small gaps between pavers. This fact makes them completely useless to “cleaning” gaps between pavers as advertised. Finally, the business end of them, are stamped (NOT GROUND) leaving the teeth rounded and incapable of gripping the sides of a paver (See photos). The ends, do appear to be “Case Hardened” making them essentially impossible to file. However, IF you have a grinder with a silicon carbide wheel they can be improved. Overall, the concept is good, unfortunately VERY poorly executed. This product was certainly never “Field Tested” to confirm actual usability. I am VERY disappointed and annoyed that I spent $29 on a completely useless product!
