    I've seen them, was also wondering how well they worked. I would guess they're ok if you're working near an air compressor.

    Bought this jack to eliminate so much cranking handle on my 20+ year old floor jack. Also, eliminate/reduce workload on my old body and working in confined space in garage may prove a bonus w/ handle clearing objects around the car. 99 percent lifting of the cars are in garage, so can make good use of my seldom used compressor.
    Anyway, for a little over $100.00 worth a try ---- If it works out, regulating hyd. to 2nd. choice/backup status.

    Looks like you could put a cushion on it, sit on it, and hit is with a lot of air fast. A great way to make it big on "America's Funniest Videos" (after returning from the Emergency Room). :D

    Seriously, it looks pretty slick. Nice idea.

    Like the idea of putting seat on it, but not taking a ride! Would make an interesting way to align yourself with your work.
