Black Jack T825010W Low Profile Floor Jack Black/Silver with Caster Wheels, 2.5 Ton Black

Living in a rural area on a micro-ranch (6 acres), we have need for a variety of jacks. In addition to the bottle and/or scissor jacks in each of our vehicles, we use farm jacks, ATV jacks, floor jacks, etc. (over a dozen counting them all - see photo for a few). Of our now 4 floor jacks (counting the new one being reviewed), I find the Black Jack 2.5 Ton Low Profile Floor Jack easiest to use and best for everyday jacking needs, especially jacking up any of our vehicles (compact, Jeep, SUV, Ford F250 full crew cab and long bed). This jack has larger wheels than my other floor jacks, so slides into place under vehicle hard points easier. The low profile allows jack to get into tight spaces made tighter by flat tires. Jack seems stable when used. Control valve to enable and disengage jack piston is well thought out and easily manipulated by the jack handle. Based on its ease of use, stability, and apparent durability I would recommend this jack to anyone looking for a low profile 2.5 ton floor jack. This will now be my go-to floor jack.

The floor jack is well constructed, easy to use, and comes with a straightforward manual that is written with clear instructions on operation, oil check, and trouble-shooting. The release valve turns easily and stays in position where turned. Lifts weight as designed and is very easy to roll along a concrete floor such as in my garage. I look forward to years of good usage—I may even pass it on to my son if he ever is need of a floor jack.
