not ok for professionals. I am a drywall who hangs six day a week and was looking for something like this. when I saw 5/8 on there I thought great. so I got one. (to the person/s who made this product.) You should have tested it first because unless you weight 200lbs or more you can not hold a 4x12 sheet of drywall 1/2 let alone 5/8.

Almost but not quite.... I bought this tool for it's seemingly small size, it would pocket easily. The issue is that this tool is too short to be an effective lever.
