Honestly, if yo are careful any will work "good enough". Personally, for a jack, I would go J&S. I have used them and they are fan-flucking-tastic. Well worth the extra cash with customer service that is beyond top notch. Yes, if you buy the service plan, HF will warranty the bottle jack in theirs. However, you better register the product 3 days after purchase or keep that receipt real close and real safe. J&S warranties theirs and offers replacement bottle jacks for a good price. Their customer service is second to none.
I have a four by six block that i trimmed with a band saw. Set it next to the high side and lift bike off stand, then slide under bike. It cost me 0 dollars.
Get the red J&S with yellow pitbull trim from harbor freight.........JUST KIDDING!
Had the red Sears for years and it worked great, son-in-law has it now and to my knowledge it is still doing the job.
Bought the J&S and love it.

I've had a Craftsman Red jack for a few years and used on at least 4 or 5 scoots. Caught it on sale at Sears for $50. It's done a good job so far. I only use it to clean and inspect the lower part of the scooter. Not used for heavy maintenance or repairs.
