2-1/2" Vacuum Suction Cup Handle Dent Puller

Ever lean against your car while chatting with someone; I mean, really lean...as in press your backside against the front quarter panel of your vehicle hard enough that you hear a small *pop* sound, as the thin metal alloy gives way to the awesome metal denting super-power of your gluteus maximus? Yeah, me either...that would be silly. But, let's say for the sake of argument that a "friend" of mine did this to my lovely, cherished and maintained like-new Subaru. Who has the time and money to leave your precious AWD at the bodyshop to fix a butt-dent? Nobody who has a butt that can dent metal alloy and leap small buildings in a single bound, that's for sure!Being a DIY kind of woman I figured a little suction may just be what was needed to pull the dent. Within minutes of the product arriving at my door (very speedy shipping, btw) it had magically suctioned away the dent. It happened so fast I didn't even have time to really enjoy how ridiculously easy it was.Step 1: Open the box.Step 2: Walk out to driveway.Step 3: Blow kisses at my Subaru and frown disapprovingly at the butt-dent.Step 4: Press the vacuum cup to the center of said butt-dent.Step 5: Press the little orange handles together.Step 6: Pull light and steady.Step 7: Hear a faint *pop* sound.Step 8: Separate the little orange handles to release the suction.Step 9: Frown at what used to be a butt-dent spot, but was no longer visible...and find it almost annoying, because it would have been cool to have taken a "before and after" picture.Step 10: Grin stupidly...because that was way to fun and easy.The only downside I see to this little orange suctionie-puppy is that I now have an urge to pull dents out of strangers vehicles. I keep it in my car just in case; fits nicely in the glove box. One woman at a grocery store let me try it on her car (the power of the "sucker" has emboldened me to start conversations with perfect strangers). In that case one dent was righted so quick she laughed. When I attempted to pull a second dent we both found out that is does not work all that well for dents where the metal has been stretched; as in a collision kind of situation. Either way, her back passenger door looked almost like new in under 10 easy steps.This product has already paid for itself in its intended purpose. Now it is providing addictive-amusement and new friends from parking lots.

This product does work. Anyone on here saying it doesn't remove dents isn't using it on the correct size dent. It's not the products fault that they don't understand how it works. That being said, it's not going to fix every dent you have. It's not going to remove a quarter size dent, it's 2.5" across, that's silly. But if you've got the right size dent (4-8"ish), with a flat enough surface, this might just pop it out for you.There were three decent sized dents on my SO's '05 Honda Civic. 1 it removed completely, 1 it removed partially (was too close to a seam, where the metal is more rigid), and 1 didn't have a flat enough surface to hold on. I also popped out a dent on my Eagle Talon with it.This product is more likely to work when the dent is in the center of the body panel. I've used it mostly on quarter panels. This isn't going to remove every tiny little dent and make your car showroom nice again, but it will remove some dents and I recommend trying it out. In my opinion, it more than paid for itself with the first dent. I'm going to buy a 2nd one to pull harder dents where the 4" puller (Which I also own and recommend) is too large.

I agree 100% with the other posters - this little unit is 100% plastic & cheap rubber. I tried to pop a dent out of my wife's 2012 Nissan Altima - the thing popped off even before I could try to give a good solid pull. Now, using on my wife's iMac to upgrade the HD in it to a SSD - worked like a champ. Course the iMac screen is flat & made of glass & held in place with magnets - those guy's @ Apple - man - they should design the next space shuttle !!! - could you just imagine what it would look like ? - course it would completely bankrupt the entire US economy for the next zillion years - but at least it'd be cool & well made :-) but I digress ... bottom line on this little unit - iMac repairs - great - car panel repairs - ferget about it ....

I was able to get good suction, the product held together, and even pulled the dent out a little bit but not enough to make it stay. When the cup was removed from the body panel the dent in my car fell right back in. I'm glad I spent a few dollars to see if it would work for me, but it did not. All dents are not created equal so you may or may not have good luck. The risk here was worth the potential reward. I am going to keep it around and may have better luck on a different dent that may come along.

I bought this to pull out a couple of quarter sized dents. I cleaned the surface and tried the suction cup dry and then slightly moistened. I found that it had far more pull when the rubber was clean and dry but I could not get the dents to come out. Maybe this one is just too big for the size dents I have but it might be kept in mind if you are trying to use it on a small dent. I'm giving it 3 stars since it has ok suction and might possibly work better on a 2" dent.

As some other people have posted, I also used these to pull the front glass on my IMac to replace the internal hard drive. They worked well, but after being on the glass for the time It took to replace the hard drive, which was about 45 minutes, one of the suction cups fell off. I had to put it back on, but that made me cautious as I didn't want them to come off while carrying the glass. I think it is best to wipe the suction cups down with alcohol first to clean them. You may need to make them slightly moist to get a more permanent hold. They did work great otherwise and the glass came off easily.

doesnt hold much. Read the reviews and thought that my application was no where near what people were complaining about. Live and learn, This silly thing isnt working on my window.I moved into an apartment that has windows that open from top and bottom but the top doesnt have a handle and if you try to reach under screen, screen pops off. (I am not on the first floor and It wouldnt fall anywhere I could easily retrieve it).This "magnetic suction cup" is worthess unless you have a tween who wants to practice Hickies on their arm?
