I had the tool that is a stick with the roller on the end and I had a very hard time pushing down hard enough to get the spline in. This is super easy to use. You just push it like a toy car and it feeds the spline in and you barely have to push down for it to work. Changed 6 screens so far and it takes minutes per screen. Wonderful tool.

This was quite a clever invention, but after doing a couple of windows I think it's not really necessary. The front wheel is grooved and will push the spline into the track, the back wheel (not grooved) pushes it in a little further. I think a one-wheel spline setter would likely do the job just as well... or perhaps one with 2 wheels, but mounted on a traditional "pizza cutter" style tool which would allow you to hold your hand in what would be a better position to apply downward force. I think you'd be able to apply more pressure to just one wheel at a time than having the pressure be distributed over two. Also, I feel like if I press too hard this all-plastic tool will break. Also... there's really no need for the clever feeding design. I think it's actually better to have the spline in front of the wheel than having to pull it from behind you. I don't see any advantage to that. It's actually less convenient. I'll likely get a regular tool to compare and will update this review. Having said all that, I'll keep it for now. It works... it's clever... but I think it's an "over design."

This spline roller works great! It's more ergonomic to use than the wheel-on-a-stick types, and installs and fits the spline in one motion. It was kind of a pain to use on my screens with the spring loaded pin catches, but rolling outIt backwards over the screen helped solve the couple of loose areas caused by those. I'd recommend having a normal spline tool as a companion to this one for touch-ups and corners.We'll see how it holds up, since it's two pieces of plastic clamshelled together, but it's still great after 125 feet of tight-fitting spline.

The idea behind this tool is excellent, but its current rendition falls far short of what it could be. It is very flimsy when applying the pressure needed to press the spline into the screen frame. This tool would be perfect if made more substantially, using a more robust material.

I re-screen a lot of pool screening and doors here in Florida. I used to struggle with the normal roller tool sold at the big box stores. Why they don't sell this one is beyond me. Many times, I ripped the screen while putting it in with the regular roller but this one makes is really, really easy. Highly recommend.

Love this screen mouse roller tool. It just costs a few dollars more than a regular roller, but I find this easier to use leading the spline all the way around.

I hired someone to replace the screen on my patio door. I bought a set of the regular screen wheels and this mouse. It was his first screen door replacement. He started with the regular wheel and then tried to finish with this mouse. It was a struggle for him, because he had already started and installed some of the spline. He decided he did not want to remove the new spline he had just put in, and to continue with the traditional wheel which he had no difficulties with.This mouse works, but I think you need to start the spline with it by threading it in the mouse and not start it with the regular wheel and continue with the mouse. He couldn't seem to thread it through the mouse once the new spline had been started on the door.If you decide to use the mouse, thread it before any of it is put on the door. It should work fine, The mouse also seems to be able to work with the thicker pet screen.
