It has a maximum lifting height of 19-1/4 inches and gets under low-profile cars with its 3-1/2” low-end range.
The Quick Rise unit is manufactured to meet or exceed ANSI/ASME and PALD standards. The rubber components on the saddle and lifting pad allow for effective protection for your vehicle underside surface. Though the price point is higher, there is a monthly payment option available to make it more affordable, but no free shipping.
Pros
- Decent lifting range
- Meets many international safety standards
- Greater reinforcement in lifting arm adds durability
- Monthly payment options available
- 2-piece handle for easy storage

- Still heavy despite greater use of aluminum
The BEETRO 2-ton electric jack is solidly constructed from alloy steel, and offers powerful electric-supported lifting. Just plug it into either the 12V cigarette lighter, your car battery or a household power outlet. The 11.5-ft cord makes it easy to plug in and reach your car from anywhere in the garage.
This jack has a safety mechanism that kicks in when the jack reaches its maximum safe height so that it cannot exceed that. Once plugged in and placed into position, it’s very easy to use with just a 2-button up-down function. It also comes with its own convenient carry case complete with peripherals. It’s waterproof, too, so fine to use outside.
