Great hammer

I prefer resin and fiberglass handles to wood. They don't absorb as much shock, but they don't break or bend like some cheap metals. This hammer has everything you need: a beautifully sculpted handle, a hole for hanging from a pegboard or attaching a toy to a bench, a solid epoxy resin head mount. The rubber on the handle is imperfect and can peel off after prolonged use, but I've never had a tool where the rubber handle hasn't peeled off or worn out.

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Big and chunky

Good size hammer on hammers

This hammer pretty much ticks all of your boxes, and that's a good thing. It's well built, heavy but not overly heavy, and slightly balanced against the metal part, allowing you to drive nails in with less effort. The rubberized handle holds well and never slips out of your hand. I've used it for projects around the house and didn't think twice, that's the point of a good tool. It seems like a good price for good quality. I recommend it.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Frequency

Good hammer for hammers

Well I don't quite understand why this hammer is called a jackhammer in the product description - I've always referred to it as a nail puller for pulling nails. However, this is a good hammer. Apart from the bright yellow and black color scheme, it has no frills, but is fully functional and does exactly what a good hammer should do. It seems well made, sturdy and has a good weight that is nice to hold on to. And the price is reasonable so I'd say it's good value for money.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Nothing here

16 oz fiberglass main hammer

This is a solid hammer for the home and perhaps light construction use. It appears to be well made and the head is attached very securely to the fiberglass handle. They used carbon steel for the head and it was excellent for easy forging on repair and construction projects. The handle is fiberglass with a rubberized black finish that's a bit comfortable but still comfortable to grip and use. There is a hole at the end for hanging or hanging on a keychain. All in all a good basic hammer that…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Will add later

I'd Pass - Hammers

Good Solid Hammer. It doesn't feel as good in my hands as, say, the Kobalt I already own, but it's good and reliable. The plastic/fiberglass is a bit rough and feels soft. It picks up scuffs and the like here and there from normal use and styling. That's why I couldn't rate it well. Compared to plastic/fiberglass, the plastic looks inferior. I have other fiberglass instruments and they don't feel like this. like that . I do regret the purchase and would recommend looking for better and more…

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Damaged

Clap! Seems good for the price.

I don't use a hammer for hours every day, but it's a tool I rarely use once or twice a day without. For decades I've used a wooden-handled carpenter's hammer, and when the handle broke I went so far as to go old-fashioned enough to buy a new handle and put it on my head. After that, the new grip continued to loosen and was also a bit crooked. Eventually I decided it was time to wake up and smell the plastic and bought this one. It seems good enough, although someone who uses a hammer for hours…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Unfashionable

Jackhammer in hammers

The hammer head is hard steel and the shaft is hard plastic (the product description mentions fiberglass but I'm not 100% sure) and the handles are rubberized for safe hammer handling when Driving in nails. I had previous experience of a wooden handle slipping out of my hand while nailing roof tiles at a Habitat for Humanity event during a hot Texas summer. The rubberized grip is designed to minimize such accidents. In general, the hammer makes a solid impression. I have not used it to test or…

Pros
  • Tools and household items
Cons
  • Slightly damaged

Decent inexpensive hammer

This is a good inexpensive hammer. It scratches pretty easily, but it's a *hammer*. I've used it for some general "hammer" tasks, hammering nails, pushing boards apart, pulling nails, pushing things that don't want to be pushed etc. I've used it recently to restore some 2x4s that had been taken by the wall. and they had nails in them. I wanted to reuse 2x4 so I have to use a claw to get the nails out. Steelhead is strong and hits well. The fiberglass and plastic handle is lightweight and…

Pros
  • Claw hammers
Cons
  • unreliable

Very powerful nail puller for household or commercial use

I really like this fiberglass hammer. It has a great feel and the rubber areas on the handle make it very comfortable, reducing vibration and providing a good grip. The head looks very well milled and has a flat, smooth surface. The head appears to be very well epoxy bonded to the handle. It's actually called a claw hammer, not a jackhammer. The jackhammer has a straight claw for breaking wood. A similarly curved hammer works better for driving nails. Both are functional and serve their…

Pros
  • Hand tool
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
