UTIL EN SU COMETIDO Y CON SUFICIENTE RANGO DE ELEVACION.
This BAOSHIOSHAN 3 ton bottle jack replaced the factory bottle jack in my 1st Gen Tacoma.
The original spilled its guts while changing wheels in a precarious spot in a high-traffic intersection, and the floorjack was at home. Luckily some dude pulled up in a Land Cruiser and had a floorjack in his bed…
Anyways:
+Jack seems solid and well built. Def better than my factory one was.
+No air or bubbles in the hydraulic pump/mechanism. Pumps smoothly.
+Doesn’t have any problems lifting my Taco all the way to full extension.
+Longer extension than any other bottle jack I’ve used.
+Small enough to use in tight spots.
+Comes in a plastic case for storage under the backseat.
-It’s smaller than I thought. I should have got the 6 ton.
-Small footprint. Make sure it’s level/plumb before extending or it may tip.
EDIT: Customer service reached me and determined that a replacement was needed. That replacement was received in good working order within 2 days. Review changed from 1 star to 4 for unexpectedly good customer service.
The jack mechanism is cumbersome, not much different than using a cheap wind-up jack, like the one South Pointe Honda in Tulsa Oklahoma stole out of my new 2020 Civic, EX.
I never had a spare tire and jack in my car and I experienced a flat tire recently and had no other option than getting my car towed which was a waste of time. I used this jack to change my flat tire. It’s very small and it can be kept in the trunk with the tire and doesn’t take much space.
Customer service reached out to me and sent me a new jack. I finally was able to test it out a few times and I’m very happy with it. Since I have a high clearance vehicle and I still wanted to be able to work on “normal” cars I looked far and wide for a jack like this. When my original didn’t work well I couldn’t find a good alternative product. I very happy with the customer service and the new jack works great. I’ve left my original review below, because somethings like the force needed to lift the vehicle in the second stage is still accurate.
I used this pump on my 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited and it worked well. The long extension helped lift the Jeep high enough to get jack stands underneath. The handle wouldn’t stay in the handle holder and it got pretty hard to pump as it got higher. I remember thinking that a come-a-long bar that could fit in the handle holder would be the perfect match.
Then I tried to use it again. This time on a much lighter vehicle, my girlfriend’s Nissan Rogue. I was again happy that it fit under the much lower clearance vehicle, and I tightened the pressure release and started pumping. Pretty soon it got to the chassis and it would lift and lower with every compression. I tightened the pressure release as hard as I could (with my hands) and it didn’t change. It looks like an internal valve has failed and its totally worthless now.
The pump just sat in the case for two months. Get what you pay for I guess?
THE LONG TRAVEL MADE THE JOB GO 4 TIMES FASTER THAN A REGULAR JACK.
I had to find a bottle jack so it fits under my car as it’s fairly low, this jack just about fits under and is capable of actually lifting it very high up. I does feel a bit heavy once the second ram starts to operate and the saddle is small (I’d like it bigger) might be better suited for a smaller car but I’m using it for lifting volvo v70.
I find the case useless.
Over the last couple of months I have put this jack through multiple tests and I’ve been impressed again and again. I have jacked up my lawn tractor in order to work on wiring – being small in size it worked perfectly for getting in the small area so I could position it under the frame and safely lift it. I changed a tire on a standard sized sedan, again no issue whatsoever. Most impressively, I decided to take a chance and used this to jack up my 12×16 studio in order to level a corner that had sunk. I positioned this on a stable block and using a piece of heavy sheet metal on the top so the top of the piston would not dig in to the floor joist, I was able to lift the studio and brace it – AMAZING!
This little beast is AWESOME. It’s easy to use and the small size really comes in handy as there is often not much area to work with when fitting a jack beneath whatever you’ll need to lift. I have had zero issues with the jack itself. While the case is not particularly well made and getting it snapped closed can be a challenge that is really a minor inconvenience when the jack performs as well as it does.
This is definitely a product I recommend.
The package isn’t pretty but it works. The box it came in is made of brittle plastic and had cracks and holes in it. The unit itself looks used and was spray painted red with a rattle can before being shipped to my door.
But it works. Actually pretty good.
We live hours away from many services, so having the equipment to take care of our needs is important. This jack is not the strongest, but it does take are of our cars, truck, and even our small tractor. We have had no trouble With the lift, or the coming back down.. It was easy for my grandson to operate, and seeing how well it works, my daughter is sure she can use it when necessary. The lock feature works and is reassuring. An essential tool for this farm.
(Reviewing the 3-ton version)
Ok, let’s just get this part out of the way right up front – this is expensive for a 3-ton bottle jack. Is it worth it? If you need the feature that sets it apart, you bet. If you don’t need the extra lift, then no.
To be honest, I didn’t even know they made a jack like this (with the double-extension shaft) until I came across this one. My first surprise was how small it is. I just assumed it was going to require a beefier package, but the main bottle is only slightly larger than a 12oz soda can, and the overall weight is only about 5 pounds… similar to other 2 or 3-ton jacks. This is pretty amazing.
The double-ram design means you can get it into places where a traditional 2-4 ton jack would fit, but you have almost TWICE the lifting height since the second tube does not start extending until the first one reaches its maximum height. Combined with the screw-top, this fully extends to over 16 inches (about 10″ of total lift)
(Just a word of caution: keep in mind, if you’re lifting something like a car, where you lift one side while the other side stays on the ground, the higher you lift, the greater the slip angle is going to be where it contacts the frame. Getting that extra 5″ of lift probably won’t affect the angle that much on a car, but just make sure you’ve got a good, secure lifting point.)
Everything else about it looks and works like a standard bottle jack – it’s just the second ram extension that really sets this apart.
5-stars for the tool itself, 4-stars when considering the price. If it was under fifty bucks, it would definitely be a 5-star product.
A VERY cool tool for specific applications.
This is just what I need for my car. It’s very easy to use, very sturdy and really saves effort.
Hace su trabajo, recibes la calidad de lo que pagas, hay que tener paciencia con la palanca en dos partes. La pintura se pierde a la 5a usada, sin embargo cumple bien con su funcio
I disagree with a previous reviewer that the jack is greatly overpriced as this is a double ram, not your typical $30 single ram jack. But as noted, it will be of similar manufacturing.
Time will tell if they can provide long-term service. But, I was pleased that out of the box both of my jacks worked flawlessly. They lifted, held, and returned my house deck that needed repair easily.
The one I got Didn’t even work on my riding mower much less 6 ton!
Update,
I received a replacement one from the seller and works as expected
