Craftsman all the way. I will NEVER buy harbor freight. Not after working for UPS and watching those trucks get demolished by ____ed off un-loaders who don't want to un-load a truck full of tools.

I am for the craftsmen too, but if you check out their site there are over 70 people who wrote horrible reviews...

I just read through a lot of the reviews and honestly I think the people are just dumb. There are a bunch of good reviews of people who say as long as you follow the manual (and bleed the jack before first use), you should be fine.
If it were me, I'd probably still get this one (but maybe with extended warranty ).

Actually, the aluminum isn't that great. It's very easy to move around and lightweight, but I actually watched one just stop working lol. I'd go for just a standard Craftsman floor jack and some jack stands.

1/4 the price and I've seen those things last 10+ years.

Me and several people in our region have been using the $80 Harbor Freight for a couple of years with no problems. I don't mind telling you I'm a little shocked that it has lasted as long as it has.

I voted Harbor Freight. Mine has done very well for me and have no problems with it whatsoever. And yes, I am changing out wheels all the time. Especially during track/autox season
