Rant: Tried that new stretch-in method on a tight hallway, total disaster

I figured I'd save time on a 12-foot hallway job by using the stretch-in technique instead of the tack strip approach like I always do. The carpet ended up with ripples near the door frame that I couldn't fix without pulling it all up and starting over. Has anyone had success with stretch-in on narrow spaces or is it just a waste of effort?

Did you use a knee kicker or power stretcher for that?
