These jacks are handy as a shirt pocket, I don't see why people hate them so much. Unless you've tried to use it for something that it wasn't intended for.
Some safety rules for using these jacks:
It is basically a bottle jack that has a longer lifting distance before you have to reset with cribbing.
Just like a bottle jack it is not intended to be used as jack stands, that's what cribbing is for.
If what you are jacking is going to move forward/backwards, left/right more than an inch or two when you start jacking then you're doing it wrong.
The base plate is small, don't use it in the mud without a large piece of 2x12 under it.
When you start letting is down maintain control of the handle at all times, if it gets away from you run like he!!
One more tip, all lifting jacking devices are dangerous if used improperly.
