TIL the hard way: power stretcher beat knee kicker on this 20x15 bedroom

Did a master bedroom last Thursday in Columbus, 20 by 15 with some tricky doorways. I started with my knee kicker like I always did, but the carpet kept wrinkling near the walls no matter how much I stretched. Swapped to a power stretcher midway through and the difference was night and day, flat in half the time and no ripples at all. That extra 20 minutes of setup paid off huge, plus my knee isn't aching today. If you're still fighting seams on rooms bigger than 12 feet wide, please borrow a power stretcher before you tack anything down. Anyone else made the change and never looked back?

Switched to a power stretcher last year and never touched the knee kicker again.
