Who are these lifters for?

The narrow model is aimed at users who move window sills, narrow slabs or strips where a wide suction pad does not fit. The comparison Oval vs. narrow shows when a narrow and when an oval suction pad is the better choice. The oval 200 kg models suit tiles and slabs, and the more expensive one offers more features with its removable battery and kg readout. If you move countertops or stone slabs, you will find tips in the guide Moving natural stone and countertops. With any vacuum lifter, often called a gripster in the trade, the rule applies: clean the surface, check the display and carry heavy parts with two people.
