15 Inch Labor-Saving Arm Labor-Saving Arm Jack is Used for Tile Positioning, Lifting Door Panels, Lifting Furniture, Sofas, Bed Jacks…

These are good for light lifting around the house, as the metal will bend if you try heavier loads. I can't say how much is too much weight, maybe 100+ lbs one time, or lifting 80-100 lb loads several times- so it can perhaps separately lift the 4 corners of a 500 lb piece of furniture. It'll more easily lift a washing or drying machine, corner by corner, if you want to lift the whole thing up, and put 4 blocks under it. You'll get a "feel" for what's too heavy, as you'll see the "lift lip" bending if it's too much, and it'll be very hard to "crank it up". Really, 50 lbs, is probably the safest maximum for this for repeated lifting. The lifting lip part really needs to be made maybe 1/2" longer , on the next iteration of this. If so, the metal has to be made sturdier, or the lift "lips" will bend too easily. Be careful when you release the pressure, as the metal release on the jack can jump forward and scratch the heavy furniture that you are lifting-just put something between the two, so it won't scratch. Lesson learned! I had a very heavy piece of wood furniture to move, about 500+ lbs, by lifting each corner separately, and putting a sliding "cushion" under each leg. The load on the jack was maybe 125 lbs- per corner. I knew this was too much for the jack, however I just had to move the furniture, then and there. It was a lot cheaper to risk it, than pay $150 for a mover to come and lift it, just to move it to about a foot away! The extra weight bent the jack's lifting lips a little bit as expected, however it lasted long enough to separately lift all four corners off the ground, and onto the "sliders." Well done, and worth bending the metal lip on one of them on what was thought to be a "suicide mission." A "real" moving company would NEVER use these light lifters-they'd pay more for a heavier jack! Thirty bucks or so is a good price for two of these light lifters.

Sure this is good for tiles, but if you live on your own and need to lift your couch or anything else that's heavy - I cannot recommend this enough. I used it to lift my couch so I could place my rug under it and it was SO easy. It was super easy to use and it lifted my couch with no issues. I used one on each side and it did exactly what I needed it to.

It’s a good product, except to move the lifters up one has to have strong hands. My hands are pretty weak and with a bit of strain I could still move a heavy piece of furniture.

Works great but unfortunately the metal bends at the slightest weight

I purchased these for the contractor that is doing the re-build on my house. He loves them.....they do the job and do it well. He is currently done with what he originally needed them for.....holding siding up while putting it place, and other things like that....and now they are being used to to hold doors open!!! I think it's so awesome that they are so versitile and easy to use, even for this 60+ old lady. Just a couple squeezes and the door is held in place, and then to release them I just push down on the lever(?). So whether you need them to hold things up to a certain height while installing something, or you just need to hold something in place, like my doors so workers can go in and out easily, these work GREAT!

On first sight, I was pretty excited for the promise of how these could save me some trouble at work, but they’ve left me disappointed. After several uses, the main shaft started to show alot of scoring from the cam- every pump of the handle causes the cam to bite into the shaft and before long, the shaft is riddled and the mechanism becomes unpredictable. I’d hoped that the jack could handle a forty pound load but the tines started to bend downward. After a few jobs, the jacks were tossed.

I recently had a project where I was hanging a few doors in my house, as well as a very heavy metal front door. I literally would not have been able to lift and balance the front door on my own without these Jacks. I also plan to use them to lift my couch, one vacuuming underneath it. One of you scared me, and the reviewer had said that the lip lift dent I lifted my new LG refrigerator. It’s a full size and fairly large and it had no issue. There’s about 10 inches of Travel, which is more than enough for anything I’m doing to fit a vacuum under or lift the door. All in all they work great and we’re great design. Wish I came of the storage bag but no big deal. I hope this review and photos are helpful.

very handy - I used it to pick up a toilet straight up so the seal would sit exactly correct, worked exactly as expected -- well built and smooth

Buen producto solo que para lo que lo necesitaba no me funciona pero es muy buen producto y precio
