Knee kicker vs power stretcher on big rooms, I was on team knee for way too long
Did a 22x16 living room in Naperville last month. Used to think power stretchers were overkill for residential, just extra gear to haul in and out. But on this one I kept getting ripples no matter how much I adjusted. Client's wife walked in, said "that looks wavy near the window." She was right. Borrowed a power stretcher from a buddy the next day, pulled it tight, night and day difference. Whole job took 30 extra minutes but the finish was clean. Now I bring it on anything over 15 feet. Anyone else stubborn about this or was I the only one?
