Bought a $500 power stretcher and it paid for itself in a week

I was using a knee kicker for years on residential jobs, thinking I was saving money. Last month I finally dropped 500 bucks on a quality power stretcher after fighting a stubborn hallway seam. First big house with it saved me almost 3 hours of work, no joke. Got three more jobs done that same week. Anyone else wait way too long to upgrade a basic tool?

Stretched one room so fast my helper asked if I was even trying. Told him no, the power stretcher was doing all the work for me. Now I'm kinda mad at all the years I spent hunched over with a knee kicker like some sort of caveman. Basically paid for itself in saved ibuprofen costs alone.

Wonder if anyone's done the math on how that power stretcher saved their knees from turning into 50-year-old knees by age 30 (like mine pretty much are).
