First post on here so hope this is right
I just saw that this QuickJack 7000TL-208-240V has finally made its way to Costco and its $595.02 cheaper than Sydney Tools.
Looks really useful for the home garage and a whole lot safer and more stable than jack stands if you have the funds.
useful because its portable and if u have a smaller shed than cant fit a proper hoist this is a great alternative
Portability. Most people don't have space to have a permanent 2 post hoist.
A vehicle lifting device that doesn't state what the safe lift capacity is? Dohhhhh
pretty sure the 7000 refers to LBS but thats around 3.1 tons i believe
It's a reasonable deduction…. but safe working load for consumer equipment should never be guided by deductions….
It says right there in large font "7,000 Capacity (lbs)" - is this not the safe lift capacity ?
If you have to go somewhere other than the seller's website it isn't good enough.
The costco seller's website https://www.costco.com.au/Tyres-Automotive/Garage/Car-Jacks-… doesn't say what the quickjack site says.
I accept that the device is rated at 7,000 lbs. I also know that the retailer's ad doesn't say that.
that is a valid criticism of the seller website, but not exactly a criticism of the item for sale.
Retailer's site also doesn't specify this but I assume the 240V in the model code refers to the voltage used.
I agree…. IF the device is clearly marked with its weight rating.
dumb way to die
Sydney tools has more information on their version.
https://sydneytools.com.au/product/quickjack-7000tl208240v-5…
and lists that they price match….
Delivery is +$100 to ACT metro. Costco includes delivery.
but requires (paid?) membership?
True. I already have it for the fuel savings, but yes… if you didn't have it you need to spend $70 on membership.
Horizontal bars are 0 degrees to ground but why vertical bars are not really 90 degrees to ground.
This lift brand also has higher lifting pads for raised vehicles.
What if………
In store is $100 cheaper, not including delivery obviously
Not much more for a proper 2 post car hoist
