I got this for my dad so he could work on lawn tractors. It's a no-nonsense unit that works as described and has no problem lifting any size lawn tractor we've thrown at it. The controls are simple to use and work well. It's not built as heavy duty as some of the bigger name units but I didn't want to pay for the big name. When compared to allot of the other units this thing actually lifts much faster. If your looking for an intermediate duty unit this is the one to get.
