Default Costco 2-ton aluminum jack

I've heard alot of bad stuff about sears jacks. I saw this one at costco last week for $99.99. Does anybody have it? If so how reliable is it? If not, wich jack is recomended?

I have it and it's pretty good ..don't know about how reliable..only had it for a month but then again my cheap powerbuilt didn't even last me a month. I figure it's only $100...

So no one else has it. What other jacks have a good reputation.

I have the Costco jack. Other than the squeeking, it's been working well. It's low enough to get under my lowered C5, and gets it up pretty high. It's easy to modulate the handle when lowering a car. If it wasn't for the squeeking, I'd be completely happy. I think maybe it may be bending sideways and getting some metal to metal action. It's not very light either, so I was hoping it'd be strong enough for this not to happen, and next time I'll probably just go with a steel jack. I've had the old steel Costco jack for years, and it's still the first one I reach for.

My 2 ton Lincoln jack is doing well. It has a nice lift range and is good at fitting under a low car.
