2 Pack Glass Suction Cups with Metal Handle and Upgraded Carrying Case - 8" Heavy Duty Glass Suction Cup to Lift Large Glass - Vacuum Glass Cup Lifter for Glass, Tile, Granite - 480 lbs Load Capacity

I originally got these to help me move larger sheets of plywood/particle board etc. in my woodshop. I haven't had a chance to see how they do in that application yet but they i my opinion have already paid for themselves during my moving in process, into my new home. There were a few items that I used these for lifting and they did pretty well for things they were designed to be able to pick up. It wasn't until we had to move my pool table out of storage and into my house that they really stood out as a terrific buy. Prior to having these moving the slates for the top of the table was an extremely difficult thing, since each section weighs about 300 pounds. Wiping the slate clean with a damp rag and then attaching these to it after it dried made moving the slates extremely fast and easy. They were still heavy obviously but having these attached as handles made lifting and maneuvering the slates SO much easier. I am extremely pleased with these suction cup grips. They are easy to use and if applied to a surface that is flat and clean they grip extremely well and do not let go until you release them. By the way releasing the is even easier than applying them.. All you need to do is lift the small release tab breaking the seal and they pop right off. Super happy with this product and totally recommend!

Moved some large mirrors this week with these. They each need about 5-6 pumps to create enough suction to hold on. Once you get them stuck, they’re stuck though. The mirrors we moved were about 150lbs so each one of these held about 75lbs each with zero problem. These could also be useful moving tiles, sheet steel and various other materials although I have not tried yet. They came with a nice case and don’t look like they will require any maintenance other than simply keeping them clean. The handles are heavy steel and I can’t see why these wouldn’t last a really long time. There really isn’t anything that can go wrong with them. I will continue to use them and report back here if I discover an issue or flaw but the first few uses were a success and happy to have this in my tool collection.

These suction cup handles make lifting, carrying, moving, manipulating, mounting, and removing heavy sheets of glass, acrylic, or mirror (or pretty much any flat, smooth, non-porous object) much much easier.They can be a little temperamental: The surface you apply them to MUST be clean, flat, and smooth. The suction surface of the tool MUST be clean and smooth -- make sure to wipe them off and keep them in the cases between uses. I had trouble trying to generate the initial suction one time; and then I realized that the mirror I was trying to attach it to was flexing very slightly as I pressed the tool into it. Supporting the back of the mirror for the first few handle pumps made all the difference.

The suction cups hold tightly, but I don't like how much pressure I have to use while pumping the button on the handle. The pumping action is not easily accomplished while holding the cups tight to the surface. This is particularly concerning when using them on sheet glass. As for LFT, this method is too slow for me. I have some cheaper, dual cup models that have a flip lever to cause suction. This is much easier and quicker when laying tile. Also, the large 8" diameter size does not work well on laminates. Most laminates do not have enough width to allow complete coverage to create a suction. Again, my dual 6" cups work better for adjusting laminate floors. The best use for these cups would be sheets of stone where I can exert more force on the cups while pumping to create suction. The pics shown in the limited instructions were not helpful either. For my varied uses, I'll rely on my dual 6" cups. I'll use the 8" cups for moving large sheet goods, nothing more.

Regretfully used the cups purchased the first time after the return window closed. Do not work!

I feel that these tools are more intended for heavier lifts. They are large and solidly built giving a great amount of leverage of your task. I wouldn't want to lay standard tile with these unless it was one of those large sheets that are a few feet across. I have been installing new large windows on my house and these have been really nice for this task.

Very strong & simple to use:These suction cups come with simple instructions to help you get a proper hold on whatever you're trying to lift, but are overall pretty intuitive to use. The materials used are also of higher quality and give you both a solid grip as well as peace of mind that nothing within the device itself will fail while in use. The suction is very strong after a few pumps but the cups are easily removable if desired, with a small rubber tab allowing you to gently pull them off of flat surfaces after use.Overall, this is a great set and I would recommend.
