You need one hand to balance on and hold the kicker where you want it/apply pressure so it doesn't slip and put a hole in the wall and the other hand to push the carpet onto the tacks with a carpet spreader, even if you had 3 hands you would need a 20lb sledge to hit it hard enough to be effective

We had a power stretcher back when I was installing carpet, but they don't fit in closets or narrow hallways, the two old guys on my crew had blown out knees so as the dull apprentice I got to kick all the closets in. Fuck that.
