Don’t Buy It, Until We Try It: Ez Moves | Video

Now, they advertise the Ez Moves as a do it yourself furniture moving system, a unique power bar that gives you ten times your natural strength. It`s as easy as three simple steps. But, does this product actually work? Well, "Don`t Buy It, Until We Try It."

We all know moving can be a difficult job, especially when you`re doing by yourself. Just ask Ron Krupka, he`s been moving furniture for a living for 15 years.

“It`s always the American dream, you know, to come out with products to make life easier in your life and your work, so we`ll see if it does," said Ron Krupka, AAction Movers.

On the box, they say just lift, place, and slide. We started with the sofa couch to see if it actually works.

So, we lifted the couch with the Ez Moves furniture lifter, slid the furniture slides under the legs of the couch, and it was ready to move.

Moving the couch with the Ez Moves was pretty simple.

Next on the list was a wood dresser.

And, we repeated the same steps for the dresser.

Krupka said, "This is just an easy way for a single person or you know, any type of person that wants to, you know, doesn`t have somebody else to help them, they can use these pieces and move it by themselves and clean what they need to clean and put it back and they`re done."

While the professional movers found the furniture lifter to be helpful, I wanted to see if I could actually do it by myself. Even in heels, it was pretty easy to use.

"Whenever you can have some, kind of leverage to lift it up to make it a lot easier, especially this tool, I mean this is just like the couch and dresser, takes two hands to lift up and this uses one hand," said Krupka.

After trying the Ez Moves Furniture moving system for ourselves, it was just as easy as advertised. All you have to do is lift, place, and slide. So, this week`s "Don`t Buy It, Until We Try It," earns thumbs up."

While the product worked well for the two pieces of furniture we tested, Krupka says the product would be ideal for office moves rather than large moves.
