Re: -Jeg's Alum floor jack, feedback.
I'll be in the market for another one soon. I had a Harbor Freight jack for three or four years and quite honestly it worked fine. I carried it in my trailer until someone borrowed it. Now, I don't know if they REALLY liked it, or REALLY hated it, ..... but for whatever reason it never came back to me.
 I'm thinking the Craftsman unit might be my next one. (Do they come with provisions for a chain and padlock?)

If you're thinking about a Craftsman aluminum jack as well, you might want to check their feedback on the sears.com website. Several of their jacks have a less than two-star rating (on a five-star scale) due to premature failure - probably at the worst possible time. Good luck! BCD.

[/ QUOTE ] Ditto...I've used mine for over a year now..I don't know about the comments, but this jack has performed very well......I think it's listed as a racing jack...?

Re: -Jeg's Alum floor jack, feedback.
I recently purchased a nice, high quality (I thought) jack from Sam's about two years ago. I was jacking a car up last week when the fill plug shot out of the jack along with lots of jack oil, and the car immediately went down to the ground. Would have hated to have been under the car! Two words......JACK STANDS, no matter what kind of jack.
