any one own one, how long have you had it , how is it working now, any problems, it got realy bad reveiws and im wondering if i should take it back

not trying to be an ass, but why the hell would you buy it after reviews like that?

Lol.. do you think ppl on CC are going to tell you better things?

After reading the reviews, I wouldnt think twice about taking it back, but thats just me.

I have a sears 3 ton jack. Id probably take that one back and get somthing stronger and more reliable. And why your at it get some jackstands, gotta be safe.

My fiancee's dad has a 3 ton floor jack. He's had it so long, ALL the stickers and writing on it has worn off. Thing works good too. I use it all the time.

s**t if it would fir under my car then i would buy one.

umm, its craftsman, if it sucks, take it back and get a new one...but damn man...its a jack. i have a crappy little jack from advanced auto and i dont have any problems with it...except now i need to find a jack that will fit under my car

Seems it tends to leak and get stuck. I was thinking of getting one from walmart, they have a low profile jack kinda like that one for 70 bucks and I know they wouldn't have a problem exchanging it.

I have that jack cole pretty damn nice actually i have not had a problem and had it for almost 6months.

yea i was using a cheep little jack untill i got this, it has worked great so far no complaints, and true about takeing it back. that little jack isent so so bad its just to high up for my car and its so small , this craftman jack is realy nice looking, and it fits uner my car

cool glad to hear i think ill just keep using it till it breaks (if it does) and get a new one

By then, it might be too late....

 

[boostedb16]

I bought one of those when I worked at sears, its the biggest POS ever. I'm on my third one because the last 2 broke through normal usage. I even tried the 2ton version and thats even worse! Never buying a jack from craftsman again!

 

[trace01m]

Hehe, Wal-Mart has a 2 1/2 ton for like 60 bucks! I'll buy 3, so when one breaks they can use the other to take the car off my head!

YAY for safety!!!

I have a $60 low pro jack that I bought at Harbor Freight a year or so back..

My only complaint is that it requires bleeding of the cylinder more often than not.. but it works well otherwise, and hasnt broken.

 

[253eg]

i got a low pro jack from schucks for like $40 while on sale
and i never experienced any problems or anything yet and i've had
it for maybe a year now

 

[cole]

wish i wouldent have to worry about this thing breaking, any other good jacks yall can recommend

 

[SiRcivic27]

just take that thing back as soon as you can and get your $$$ back.

damn i wish i could remember what brand mine is. looks just like that craftsman one except its all silver. its been GREAT for going on 2 years now, probably 100 uses, not a single problem. fits under my dropped coop with room to spare and it only cost me like $79 at pepboys (it was on sale 50% off at the time). if i can remember ill get the brand name off of it and post up a pic.... if i can remember...
