I have one, it works fine. It is just a jack, nothing more nothing less. Of course it is not assembled in the USA like the Pit Bull or J&S.

I mainly use a jack for cleaning wheels and tires. The Pit Bull and J&S look like a great jack but dang they are much more expensive. I currently have this one. http://www.motorcyclejacks.com/ I am starting to have trouble with it letting bike all the way down. Wants to get stuck. Time for a new one I think. Does the Harbor Freight lock at each position? Is it hard to assemble if I order it online?

It does lock in different heights. I like it because it is low enough in the full down position to slip under my bike. I just use it to change oil and clean wheels. Works great so far.

I think I'm going to get one. Did you order it online or get it in store?
