PowerBuilt jack/jackstand combo - any recent purchases?

[Donald]

I like the PowerBuilt combo jack concept but some reviews talk about quality issues. Any recent purchase experience? Aluminum model or steel model?

Will I be able to use it to lift my F250 by its lifting points? Not the frame!

I have one of those that is rated for 4,000 lbs. .... never any problems.
I jack up my 2021 Ford Escape.
I like it alot .... good for when I rotate the tires.
I bought from Amazon because of their easy return policy.

But when I had my Ford Ranger, I used a floor jack and lifted under the 'rear' axle or 'front' control arm.

Could you have gotten under the 'rear' axle or 'front' control arm with the PowerBuilt combo jack?

This?

Understand you won't be able to use it on a passenger car. It's too high to fit. Maybe not even on an SUV.

Probably. But then you have to look at the lift height.
For the Ranger, I'd want the floor jack.

For the Escape, I had to buy the combo jack.
And one of these-

I have several of these, although mine are all probably at least 10 years old. I've used them on multiple Duramax 2500HDs without issue and they are still going strong.
