Powerbuilt 620516 2 Ton, U 4000 lbs UJack Garage Jack

Awesome piece of kit, surprisingly light amd easily transportable Good high lift and easy to pump up. Well worth the money.

This is a great piece of kit for lifting cars and SUV's. Very well built and robust. The minimum height for getting under your car's jack point, however, is 10 to 11 inches, so you may need to drive up onto blocks of timber to get the extra height to be able to fit the jack under the vehicle. Once under the vehicle they are really quick and easy to use.

Perfect for the job. Campervan. Easy to use, lift height and good price.

Strong jack but is showing corrosion and the minimum height is quite high. Shape is a bit awkward. Safety latch is very very welcome however.

Decent good quality jack, works well and easy to use

Really useful Jack with the security of an axle stand, easy to use.

Very usable and safe to use

Oh dear. I got this for my other half who likes messing with vehicles. When it arrived he was like a small child bouncing about with delight … that was until he opened the box and took a look at it. He refused to use it, he said it is dangerous! When I had my mot done I asked the man who does the annual test for me (he is also a family friend), and he as said that it isn’t strong enough, and is not kite marked or registered. He demonstrated this by jacking a ½ weight (1ton) testing vehicle and it was about 6 inches up from its base level when the jack gave way and collapsed. The main lesson I took from this is to always make sure that the equipment you get is from a known/respected manufacturer and check that it is kite marked (I didn’t know that they still did the kite mark). My other half, the love of my life, the man who took me on regardless of my problems and faults, the man who has care for me during past illnesses and continues to stand by me, care for and nurse me during my life shortening illness – could have been seriously injured or killed if he had used this jack and been under or near the vehicle when the jack collapsed. It may be that this is an odd one and the others are ok, but I can only speak to what I, myself, have experienced; and the one we received was dangerous.

Worked like charm on Kia Forte 5SX, which has a low ground clearance, just like the car on manufacturer's picture. The jack is heavy and very well made.

Haven't actually used it but it is everything I need it for

The floor jack was built tough, I just had difficulties getting the ram to drop which made removing it from under the vehicle once the wheels touched the ground and the suspension stabilized. I had to pry it down to get it to clear the carriage rail to slide it out. [UPDATE] So initially, I returned my jack because of the difficulty is getting the ram to lower. I spent the better half of two days trying to find a comparable replacement to no avail. I ended up giving the unit a second chance and ordered another one (mind you for a few dollars more which was fine). The new unit arrived and the first thing I did was attempted to test the piston. The unit raised and lowered smoothly. I was a little concerned that the bottle jack seemed a bit wobbly but I was willing to deal with it. during one of my sessions of testing the ram I heard a small tap noise and looked on my table. There was a screw on it. My initial thought at the moment in time was "What the?" I gave the jack a very thorough look over and discovered that there are two screws that secure the bottle jack to the frame. One fell off, the other was a little loose and originally this sort of made me somewhat disappointed. However, after looking at the screw and seeing how thick and meaty it looked I went ahead and reseated it and used my power tool to reseat it. It reseated perfectly and I could feel by how well it mated with the assembly that there was quality and confidence behind that connection. I think it could have been a case of someone missing this trying to get these out of the assembly line to meet the demand. Despite this, continuing my thorough inspection of the unit continued to raise my confidence levels. The areas under stress and of critical importance have been engineered in a manner that prevents you from accidentally tinkering around and possibly putting the jack in a compromised state which I appreciate. The lift handles are riveted on so I don't have fears of that popping off and having the unit fall on to my foot during transport as an example and the ram is bolted to the jack support so you don't need to worry about possibly having the two not be aligned properly before putting the points under load. It was these little touches that despite my initial complications of having to get it exchanged along with having two of the screws losoe on the bottom that I still changed my original rating of four stars and upped it to five. I do feel that having gotten past these little nuances was well worth it after taking the convenience, practicality and quality of the unit (as a whole) in the end and quite frankly, I haven't been able to find an alternative solution that is as well integrated as this one at a similar price point. Having had my issues gave me an opportunity to really give my jack a thorough look over and it was during this time that I truly got to understand and appreciate the engineering behind the product.
