Does anyone here have a J&S jack?

You usually get what you pay for. Why do you think the PB and the J&S is more money than the HF?
Better quality is the answer, it's not always about paying for the name.
Why would you spend $15-$25 K on a bike and choose a $99 lift?
Just think of how you would feel if you saw your bike on its side on the floor after the lift broke. Get the better quality lift like the Pit Bull or the J&S and be happy
Many have purchased the cheaper lifts and were not happy after the fact but they usually don't relate the story. It's like buying cheap tools, they usually will break or do damage to the part being worked on.

Unfortunately Santa skips my house due to religious affiliation. I think my other lift has been oredered for my B-Day which is about 10 days off. I am sure it will do the trick for now. It is really funny though. Next time I do this I am getting hired first so I can get a free one.

Was all set to buy a J&S but pulled the trigger Friday on the Pitbull. Biggest factors were sale price, integral tie-down eyelets, grease fittings, larger footprint and height advantage.
Pricey, but the peace of mind is worth it, IMHO.
