I have them to get my car on the car hauler but that is it. I still use a jack and jack stands in the garage.

HAHA, that 2x4 one is mine.

Still going strong after 7 years. Super stable and the load is just off center of solid wood to the ground. Only thing you have to be careful of is not driving over the stops. I'd take the wood over the plastic stuff any day. My wheels are like the ramp, they don't look like new any more.

Let me clarify....I wouldn't get under without having a backup means such as jack stands. It's a neat concept and product, but I would not personally use it as a single point of failure.

Quickjack isn't too different from jackstands btw. The car actually rests on a metal notch thing rather than sitting on they hydraulics. I will say that it felt pretty sketch the first time I worked under it, but I've changed my mind since. Super solid. After that, I don't really mind now. Jack stands can be sketchy too lol.
