sorry needed to rant ...
I bought a 3 ton floor jack from sears in aug . -- I have used it all of 4 times .The last time was to put the teener on .. jacksatnds (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) .... whe I tried to lower the jack it seized up and would let the release vale open to lower the jack!!! I finally able to borrow a nieghbors jack to remove mine and I took it back to sears .. they basicly said congrats you have a $100 + paper wieght! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif) mainly because I had no receipt even though it is easy to see that it has barely been used and clearly says craftsman all over the damn thing... has any one else had isses with newly purchased jacks from sears ... of know of a better jack that won't seize while lifting a little 914 |

Sears really needs to quit advertising their stuff as High quality American made tools. They are junk. I have a bunch of Craftsman stuff but I have learned there are much better options out there. Sears Screwdrivers are junk. The tips are way to soft and the Phillips angles are all wrong. The Wrenches feel like garbage and open up and slip on fasteners. They will be relegated to my junkyard bag. The Sockets aren't bad, but the Ratchets are JUNK. The tool boxes suck also. The Professional Series are decent but over priced.
Why Bother with the Sears Jack when it is the same one HF sells for 50$. Buy Hammers and such at HF, buy Jackstands from HF, buy Snap ON, SK, MAtco, MAC, or Cornwell for everything else. |
