Definitely recommend this quality hammer. A hammer is a hammer I suppose but once you buy this you will see what a good hammer feels like. Well balanced and a good weight

Git is a great hammer overall but feels a little underbalanced. It has good anti-vibration. Good value for money though. Ideal Diy'er hammer.

Good hammer, anti vibe is a nice feature. Good value for trades and diy. Rusts bit easier than Estwing if it gets wet but this comes away with a rub of wire wool or light sand paper

Well balanced and reduced strike vibration transfer through the handle.
A decent hammer with an enlarged face for more accurate strike.
Would buy another if lost, can not see it failing soon.

Great quality hammer for the price. It’s never let me down. Weighted just right for me. Would definitely recommend. The mould on the hammer feels great in the hand and I’ve had it over a year now and still not really showing signs of wear.

Decent hammer at a decent price. Not a lot you can say about it, not going to make you a better tradesman but will probably last longer than you will.

I've had one of these for over 15 years now and it's been put through its paces. Great weight, well balanced and up to most jobs, whether it's knocking out joists or hammering in nails and clips this is a great hammer.

As a handyman this hammer is a must, it makes light work of all jobs, the weight distribution helps with driving nails in with little effort and also the head has not marked unlike others, is has not rented even when working on roofs, it’s just a must for any tradesman

I’m a big fan of this claw hammer, great to handle and the grip is spot on. As hammers goes this is one of the best for value and functionality.

A good quality hammer, well weighted and a decent size. The anti vibe does make a difference in comparison to my previous hammer. A worthy investment

A good hammer, good weight and balance however I don’t like the chamfered edge around the head wish it was flat. Other than that it’s a good hammer

Strong, comfortable and great to use over long periods. The anti-vibration makes it less painful when chasing out walls. The metal shaft is strong and doesn't splinter unlike fiberglass versions. The head has good leverage and is well balanced

3rd October 2020
What do you need from a hammer? Does what it says on the tin. Must say the anti vibe and grip make it very easy to use. You don't get the sore elbow with this. The claw I found could be a better shape to get good leverage other than that nice bit of kit.
Review for Stanley Tools FatMax® All Steel Curved Claw Hammer by Jonathan Dauncey
1st October 2020
Nice hammer, good grip and feel, really sticks in the hand well. buying an antivibe really does take some of the wear out of your arm when using for extended periods of time. Not all hammers are made equal, this one serves a purpose and is decent value for the money
Review for Stanley Tools FatMax® All Steel Curved Claw Hammer by AW Maintenance
27th September 2020
Very well designed hammer. Has a good strong feeling in the hand and is well balanced and does not feel top heavy, which some hammers can. With a rubber grip it won’t be slipping out your hand as you swing and the antivibe works great. A very good lightweight, balanced hammer would definitely recommend.

Similar money to the Estwing, the head seams a little smaller which helps when using glazing pins. Feels well made and the grip reduces the shock quite well.

Bought this 2 weeks ago quality is really good and wasn't too pricey... Looks really good but the black paint flakes off fast and the anti vibration handle works great

Picked this over an estwing (similar price) basically because I thought it looked cool. Anti vibration in the handle is amazing and very lightweight centre making the swings easier.

I mean it's a hammer how much can I say about it, it has a nice ergonomic handle and the weight is nice. I'm sure someone who uses a hammer every day could appreciate its design more but I use it maybe once a week and it does what I need great.

For a cheaper scale hammer it’s nicely weighted and comfy to use. It’s a tool box must have. Had one for several years now and it’s still going strong with no signs of damage

28th July 2019
Bought this hammer as a one tool fits all solution. It is a great hammer but has its limitations. For cable clipping it’s useless the flared head makes it’s a finger pincher and no good for clipping. As a hammer for hitting nails chisels and the like it’s great the anti vibe handle works very well.

Well worth the extra over cheaper hammers.
I had previously been using a really cheap bog standard hammer for many years. This Fatmax one is nicely balanced, more comfortable to use and seems to take less hits than my previous one to drive a nail in. The striking face is slightly larger too, less chance of missing a strike
