Bought it for quick lifts in shop rather than dragging out heavy floor jacks and pumping up just to grab a wheel for front end play inspections. If it turns into a job , jack stand gets placed under vehicle, if not, it gently lowers vehicle almost as fast as opening valve on floor jack. Very small foot print and very light- could even hang it up on wall for storage. Mine was delivered with damaged air tube, but response and betterment was quick and satisfactory. This is about my third or fourth product from them in the automotive category and will no doubt purchase from them again with confidence.
