Suction Cups Heavy Duty Aluminum Vacuum Plate Handle Glass Holder Hooks to Lift Large Glass/Tile Lifter/Moving Glass/Pad for Lifting/Dent Puller (2 Pack)

My husband recently replaced the backsplash in our kitchen. The tiles we found were huge. 30 x 60 tiles. It was a struggle to move the tiles around until we got these suction cupholders. We saw these on a YouTube video and they seemed like a good solution. Luckily they were and they made the job so much easier for my husband. He felt that they securely held the tiles And that they were made well. He also thought they were easy to use. I recommend these tile holders to anybody doing a large tile job.

First of all, they hold really well! We used them to install a bi-fold, glass shower door (nearly 60 lbs). It would have been impossible to accomplish the install without these glass holders. They were easy to use, held extremely well, and made it possible to adjust our glass panels easily. And, they were extremely reasonable. I don't know if we'll ever need them again - but it was worth the price for this one project. There's no way we could have done the project without these holders. One important thing to mention is the peace of mind they gave us. We didn't worry about breaking the glass because of the firm control we had with these holders.

These worked, and because of that my large and expensive TV was saved.I was hoping that these were the kind of suction cups whereby you could spin the levers counterclockwise to adjust the amount of suction delivered to the glass. Please note, these are not that type; they are not adjustable. I had serious concern that the amount of suction they produced would be sufficient to crush the LCD panel- they undergo a high degree of concavity when the levers are locked.I had planned on lightly wetting the panel prior to attaching suction cups, but due to the extreme suction, I was concerned that the moisture could allow the glass to bow inward more by slipping inward, past the rubber ring. This was a bit of a catch-22. A dry panel would theoretically produce less ability for the glass to bow at the suction cups; but also produce a greater chance of releasing the glass altogether and dropping it.A wet panel reduced the chance of droppage, but increased the chance of crushing the thin panel in the suction cups. So what to do.I concluded that the greatest risk lied in the potential for crushing the panel in the suction cups. I cleaned the panel and the suction cups and dried them. I then set one handle down on the LCD screen being extremely attentive to the amount of downward Force applied to the handle as I slowly engaged both levers simultaneously. I made it a point not to push down on the handles at all, as I locked the levers in place. The first attempt failed to attach to the glass.. with-ever-so-slight downward pressure, the second attempt succeeded. I did the same thing with the second handle immediately after attaching the first. I did not hear any cracking of the screen and did not want to push my luck; so I moved hastily through the next steps so as to minimize the amount of time the screen was exposed to such strong suction. Next I slowly lifted and hovered the screen about 2 in over its place on the frame. I held it there for about 15 to 20 seconds. The idea here was that if one of the cups had bad suction, the amount of drop would only be an inch or two and maybe the screen wouldn't break. However, if the screen remained attached after 20 seconds then the assumption was it may be safe to transport across the room. All four suction cups remained attached for the transport.After setting the screen down I immediately began to slowly release the levers, again, both levers simultaneously. I repeated that for the second handle and removed both from the screen. I grabbed a flashlight to shine at the screen, and to my amazement it appeared there were no cracks left by the strong suction.When the time came I repeated the process for transporting the screen back across the room to its proper place on the TV frame; again paying particular attention to the amount of downward Force (or lack thereof) applied to the LCD panel when locking the levers. Again I verified attachment by allowing it to hover an inch or two for 20 seconds before transport across the room.These worked beautifully. If you decide to get them for the same purpose, I strongly urge you to be as careful as I was. And watch a number of videos on YouTube before attempting it yourself.

First things, this FCHO is the unit to get in this inexpensive class of suction cups and significantly out-performs my Fastcap HOD pair. However, several things to note:1. The FCHO unit is made of metal, although the finish on my set is painted sloppily with debris in the paint, it's not a big deal. Whereas the Fastcap HOD version is made of an ABS-like plastic and the handle is plenty strong enough.2. The rubber discs on the FCHO unit are more rigid and provide significantly greater strength during a lift operation. 7mm thick on the FCHO and 6.5mm on the Fastcap HOD version.3. The suction clamp lever mechanism on the FCHO unit has greater travel and subsequently, more holding power.4. The holding time on my FCHO pair is significant and has not released on any smooth surface for over 12 hours. Whereas the Fastcap HOD pair I have seem to only hold for upto 15 minutes at most.5. The Fastcap HOD unit comes with rubber cup storage protectors. The FCHO unit does not.6. The rubber suction cups on FCHO unit has an overwhelming toxic smell, similar to that smell when you first walk into a Harbor Freight. The Fastcap HOD version does not emit a detectable odor.Note, the Fastcap HOD version I have is from 2013 and it's possible that design has changed since. However, the current product pictures appear the same so I'll assume it's the same product. In that case, the FCHO version is the clear winner and does what it claims and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.Why 4 Stars? Because there is room for improvement by providing the storage discs to increase longevity (grit and air exposure break down rubber over time). And, the toxic rubber smell is overwhelming for some like me to the point it burns my eyes when too close to the unit. Fix those two things and it's a 5-star product to me. For many others, it's already a 5-star product and I do recommend it.By the way, the uses are endless including moving a 1,000 lb spa (pulling while spa is rolling on pipes), lifting a washing machine (2 pair), and installing a countertop in addition to the usual glass and floor applications. Great product.

They work great on my boat. They hold tight and create a safe handle to hold on while cleaning the side of my hull.

Very helpful and user friendly

This works very well and it have a solid hold when you used on the large format tiles. Excellent tool

I was impressed with these out of the box for the money, they seem really well made, not cheap junk. I left them overnight on a heavy porcelain slab and was able to lift it the next day without resetting the suction. The suction cup surface has soft feel that really seals well, and the amount of suction possible by pressing down a little before flipping the levers is impressive.
