Is this a good low-profile jack? I need to pick one up and fast!

One I found on Ebay:

That's a torin jack. They sell those at the local pepboys store and whatnot.

I'd spend a bit more to get the OTC brand.

I really like this jack more than my AFF because it's so light, but it wont reach the crossmember like my AFF can.

Was gonna say I saw this exact jack at pep boys today. Was like 129.99 I think. I am also looking for a jack so I will keep checking back if someone recommends a good one.

I read some review, people seems pretty happy about it. AND you can find a 33% off coupon in those cars magazine for that exact floor jack. So $59.99 for low profile floor jack....not too bad ?

The 1.5 ton (3000lbs) jacks barely lift a corner of a car??? That sounds strange to me.

I know a few people who had that jack. Some of them leaked and some of them loses pressure the higher you go. My friend returned one after a day because out of the box, it wasn't working properly. If you dont work on your car a lot, you may get by with this jack.

Yeah, I was just at Pepboys yesterday (off of Sunrise hyw) and saw it for $129.99 it is the same exact one. But $129.99 plus NYS sales tax is $141.20 very similar price to the one on Ebay...but I have funds available in my PP account so to spend $3.75 more I won't get a new credit card charge.

The torin and General from harbor freight is the same jack. I bought the one from harbor freight for 59.99, first one broke after a week, seals leaked, and this one has been going strong for about 4 months with no issues.

I got one that looks just like that but I think it was "American General" (i think?) brand I got from harbour freight for like 60bucks. I used it twice and it leaked fluid
