You know the type of paver. Sharp edges, slippery, heavy, and awkward. The type that drops back to the ground right when you think you’ve got a good hold on it. When you finally move it to the right spot, a small misplacement causes you to start all over again.
This process gets frustrating and eventually, you get tired of it. Picking pavers up and even placing them correctly is already an arduous task, but picking pavers up one by one from a stack is even more annoying. This is where the Grabo Pro Vacuum Lifter comes in to make your life easier.
The Grabo Pro-Lifter is a vacuum tool designed not only for professionals but also for amateurs. Unlike the other solutions, this vacuum lifter is portable and handy. The promise of “Heavy Lifting – Made Easy” is really shown here, as the GRABO Pro is one of the most useful items to have in your hardscaping arsenal. Equally effective on smooth and coarse surfaces, the Pro-Lifter has a pumping capacity of 20 liters per minute, which makes it the best-in-class vacuum lifter. You can say goodbye to the unreliable and dangerous tools you use and say hello to the Grabo Pro. Double your work efficiency while enhancing your safety.
With its ergonomic design, the Grabo provides numerous advantages over its competitors like better grip and less fatigue when moving heavy objects. You don’t have to worry about dusty, semi-porous, and rough surfaces. This vacuum lifter is just as effective on tough surfaces as it is on a clean glass pane.
The Grabo Pro is also fitted with a digital display that shows the weight that it is lifting and the maximum weight that it can lift at that very moment. Another feature is its smart digital pressure sensor. This is one of the Grabo Pros’ biggest benefits because it makes the tool even more effective on different surfaces. With the simple press of a button, the lifting function is activated and automatically regulated. The sensor finds the optimum level of suction that is needed and keeps objects in complete control during movement.
The Grabo excels at its job as a hardscape vacuum lifter, but its accomplishments don’t stop there. The vacuum lifter is used in many industries, for example:
Absolutely! The Grabo Pro is an excellent tool for construction workers. Although it’s not a hammer or a drill, having a high-quality vacuum lifter on any construction site is a benefit. Lifting drywall, bricks, stone, rocks, and even doors are easier to lift with a Grabo Pro vacuum lifter.
Contractors can make use of Grabo Pro vacuum lifters. Any general contractor that finds themselves regularly moving around doors, sheets of plywood, sheets of drywall, appliances like ranges and refrigerators, or countertops will benefit from vacuum lifters. Imagine having a reliable handle to grip when moving a washer and dryer or kitchen range. A Grabo Pro vacuum handle will save you time and frustration.
You better believe movers benefit from Grabo Pro vacuum lifter! Instead of having to find awkward places to pick objects up and haul them upstairs, movers use the Grabo to make life easier. Imagine a Grabo on each side of a large wardrobe, moving it with ease! No more awkwardly carrying heavy furniture up flights of stairs, with the right vacuum lifter handles you can easily move any piece of furniture.
Landscapers typically use vacuum lifter handles to move heavy patio pavers and stones. The difficult thing about patio pavers is that they can be quite heavy and also fragile. Having a solid handle makes it much easier to maneuver paver tiles without damaging them. Landscapers also use Grabo Pro handles to attach to and carry heavy stones. Every landscaper that tries out a Grabo Pro falls in love with it.
It’s easy to see how the Grabo Pro can excel in helping businesses and industries complete their work more efficiently. But how does it stack up with DIY and at-home usage? The simple answer is just as good and in certain cases, even better. The lightweight design and its ease of use make the Grabo Pro the best vacuum lifter you can have in your arsenal. It is easy to store so it won’t need to be lying around your shed or your home and will be waiting for you when it’s time to start your next project!

The process of a standard suction cup is very simple. You press the cup against a surface, squeeze the air out of the inside, and the cup seals around the vacuum it has created. The problem with the standard suction cup is its ability to hold up heavy weights. This is where the Grabo Vacuum Lifter comes in.
It works like your standard suction cup but takes it to the next level with its built-in battery-powered vacuum. This battery-powered vacuum creates that firm hold that the standard suction cup lacks. Now add a strong and unique seal and you get a vacuum tool capable of safely carrying up to 375 lbs.
