Default Quick Jack stand

What do you all think about this product... Apologies if it has been posted before..

To me its a great alternative to your regular jack stands.

Dangerous, I looked into getting them but they don't lift the car up that high. They just don't look safe.

Looks like the ezcarlift except hydraulic...but the ezcarlift has cross braces to make it safer (but I guess they can get in the way too). Looks no more dangerous than jack stands as far as support goes, but I don't see any sort of locking mechanism.

Nm..looks like it does have a locking mechanism. In that case I don't see anything unsafe vs normal jack stands. Half the price of ez car lift but it's hydraulic....

Well known lift maker, nice piece. Personally, I find a couple of nice 3 ton racing floor jacks better.

I am biased, I just installed the Maxjax system in my garage. Bolted down and very secure but still afraid of getting under it.
