Disappointing Performance!!

"I bought this to be able to do minor repairs on my car but the 2 Ton jack cannot even lift the rear end of my BMW 330d (Kerb Weight 1640kg hence I estimate rear = approx 750-800kg). It can lift one corner but I can do that with the cars flimsy looking scissor jack.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! I know it's cheap but I'd at least expect a well know company like the RAC to ensure products with it's name on to be capable of safely performing the task.
Stands, 4-Way Spanner, Oil Filter Spanner and Chocks all steardy and well made. Skate is a bit flimsy and short in length but serves a purpose.
Overall this is a great idea ruined by the useless jack. I would of quite happily paid a bit more for a better one."

"I had the job of taking off two wheels from my caravan.
What would normally take about 15 minutes per wheel just to jack the wheel up, took less than 1 minute. I would normally then have to put a spare wheel on, for stability. The axle stands proved up to the job. Simply releasing the pressure and jobs a good un, so to speak.
Yes the mechanics creeper could be better and not split in the middle. But it served its purpose, allowing me to go under caravan on a very gravely surface to examine the placing of the axle stands and jack point. I did not use the Cross wrench as I could not get enough purchase on it to remove the wheel nuts. All in alkl for pure time saving I would recommend this to anyone."

"The quality of the product is a bit femer and does not instill confidence in use.I used other axle stands and another jack as well as I did not feel safe using the products in the kit.
A couple of products in the kit where ok namely the oil pan and cross wrench. Had I seen the product before purchase I would never have bought it. It sound a good bargain but is let down by the quality of the good included. Markes out of 10 I would give 3."
