Works great!

Works as it should. I'm 6'7" and this one is the perfect length to light heavy floor grates
Best lineman hook for manholes...bar none

This is simple. It's a hook. It's not a newfangle 3 legged contraption with chains and hooks and L bar to step on, and that costs $300. It's a hook meant for manholes, not concrete lids, handhole lids, vault lids etc...just manholes.
So, it doesn't matter that the duck bill is flat and can bend if enough weight/pressure pounds put on it. You are meant to place the duck bill end through a manhole lid opening, then twist so it catches the under lid metal that runs a circle within the circumference. The weight of the manhole lid should be on the curve, not the tip, as you pull with your legs, not back. By the way, legacy Pacific Bell, or aka Bell System manholes weigh up to 249 lbs...so, be careful.

Longer than standard

Not that its bad, but pulling a manhole cover, it's best to be a little closer, especially when some are extremely heavy. This one is 3ft and I knew this when buying, it's different when using it..no big deal to me, its made well and hasn't bent yet
Right size to save your back

Nothing, all good
Works as intended. Durable.

Not much to say, it does what it was designed to do and the steel is good enough to not allow it to deform under working load, even when prying at stuck / iced over manholes.
