I bought mine in July at full price and I have zero regrets. I'm working on my vintage Mercedes diesel wagon in my mostly uneven driveway under a portable carport and it makes it incredibly stable, and easy to lift. I was actually ready to pour concrete to level the driveway but when I used it the first time just to test, I tried shoving the car as hard as I could and it was rock solid steady. I chose this over my, actually quite good, jack because some of the work I have to do requires that I lift and lower the car many times during the same task, and during that time I sometimes have to raise and lower the wheels as well. This makes it easy. They are heavy but my son and I worked out a system using some carrying straps we found at Harbor Freight so we just wrap them on one side of the quickjack so we can carry each lift across our yard. I should mention that my Mercedes weighs far too much for one of the type for normal cars and I had to buy the 7000lb version to be safe but, again, no regrets.

Nicely done sir. Candid, no fluff, simple facts, great job!

I've had one for several years. Better than jackstands, no comparison. Nowhere near as good as a real life. My main gripe is that they are so HEAVY. I would have happily paid more for an aluminum version that is easier to move around. I hang mine on the wall when not in use, and getting them up and down is a huge pain. My garage is WAY too small to leave them on the floor, I have to use them out in the driveway.

Happy I have had them, but looking forward to having a 2-post life in my new garage (building a new garage with attached living quarters).

These can be great, but they need a few modifications. Look up adding ball bearing casters (2x 5/8” and 1x 1”) to the bottom so that the stands can be rolled around very easily. This should have been standard. Next add a strip of rubber to those removable handles so that when you hook them on, they stay in place allowing them to move the stands easier. I also mounted my Hydralic pump on a little stand of wood with four more of those ball casters attached so it can be dragged around easier. I typically use two by fours on top of the rubber blocks because they distribute the load better on the pinch welds and add an inch and a half of lift height. I too store these under my Tesla without a problem and have an 88 5.0 foxbody in the other bay. They can fit under that even though it is lowered. The only issues I’ve had is with one not fully lowering, which I just bled again tonight and added more air pressure to the return air spring. Overall, I highly, highly recommend these over any jack and stands. Would never go back as these are far easier and safer to use. I even use them to lift the car up when doing paint correction and wax jobs. I have the 7k ones to deal with higher weight electric vehicles. Wait for them to go on sale on Home Depot daily deals every month or two. Thanks for the video!

i like them...i would also use them to wash my cars so i don't have to wash and polish bending down to do the lower panels and wheels

Absolutely elite level product review. Legend!

How well will it work on a driveway with a slight slope.

[MarzNet]

Cool. My garage floor is too uneven to safely use this. Jack and jack stands for me.

I have the same GT500 i was wondering if the quickjacks work for lifting the gt500 need to replace trans cooler ? Thanks

Ezcarlift is what I ended up with. Coming from just a jack any lift is a huge upgrade

[MrShakNasti]

Very cool setup HP! That was a thoughtful business investment by Aubrey for you. The thought of using these scissor lifts gives me concern - having had used regular jacks/stands growing up... but the ease and creature comfort of just pressing the button seems well worth the upfront cost. Though, I'd just as soon drop the extra $1000 (over full cost) to get the 2 post. I'd snag a pair of these for $800 though if I could find them for sure

[danielwolf]

I saw somebody that has a similar type Jack I think it's a different kind they actually put they bought ball bearing Wheels to put underneath it seem to work pretty well

[MustangGuru]

VEVOR make one simular, difference is it goes straight up.

[prazerpraez]

You can get small ramps or 2x10 cut 4 12 inch piece, and drive car on it to get clearance you need.

[meltdownblitz]

Great deal at 50% off. Hopefully that sale will come around again soon

So I just posted on here but someone mentioned a Vevor car lift. Looked that up and found that and a SKYSHALO (7k) at Home Depot for $1250. What those two do better than the quick jacks is left straight up. I hate how the quick jacks moves the car backwards when it lifts and back forward when it lowers. This sucks for people with tight garages like mine. As long as I could get the ball bearing castors to mount to the Vevor or SKYSHALO, you may be better off with those. Do note that they don’t seem to go as high and are heavier. However for a cheaper price, you also get the stands and the top can extend. These both cost a lot more with quick jacks. Wish they were around when I bought the quick jacks a couple years ago.

[jonsmail]

[KemDIY]

Do you have a discount code? This video really helped me.

[Leela]

Haha, you carry your height and weight very well. Thanks for the thorough review!
