There are times when I need to lift something heavy to place something underneath it. This device is great for the job.

One of my favorite tools, super useful in so many ways. Kinda expensive but a lifetime tool with super fine adjustment and safety lowering, very nice design. Love this thing. Highly recommend.

How did I live without these? I don't use them everyday, but they're great for lifting the edge of items to replace casters, insert sliders, adjust feet, etc. They're good for spreading, too. All you need is a 1/4" gap. I also used them with an extension board to straighten a warped shelf (without unloading it) so I could reinforce it. They seem rather expensive, but I question the safety of cheaper alternatives.

I used this to lift a heavy shed one corner at a time to be able to block it up and move it. Worked good. The second time I did this I had bought a second one and worked perfectly together when used with both hands

I'm always doing things in my (wood)shop. And very often, this includes lugging around large sheet goods (like full sheets of plywood) and various other large/heavy/unwieldy things. Often, that's difficult without a second set of hands. Over the last few years I've been eyeballing the Massca Viking Arm but never could justify spending upwards of $200 for one. So, I tried various Chinese knock off versions - with varying results (though more often than not, they were less than optimal). The copycat products had so-so capacity, with the primary common thread being that they universally are all FAR less capable than their product descriptions would lead you to believe. I certainly never felt safe using them to lift up objects several hundred pounds in weight, even just for a short amount of time.When Irwin released this product, I had to give it a shot. The price point is much closer to the Chinese products, but with the capacity in the Viking Arm's range. It also has a range that seems to exceed that of the Massca product (around a 10" lift, compared to ~8" on the MVA).So far this thing has been rock solid, and has effortlessly lifted everything I have thrown at it. Definitely highly recommend this for anyone who could do with a second (or third - maybe even fourth) set of hands while they are working on projects, but don't want to bother their spouse all the time.The only downside? I wish I had at least one more!

I do a lot of repair work, and was needing something that would lift and hold things in place, and also to separate or spread apart assemblies to be able to get parts in and out. I wanted something more precise than just a pry bar, and that would be able to lift or spread something with just a small gap. In the past, all I could find were cheap $30 ones that looked flimsy, or professional $300 ones I couldn't really justify. I thought the Irwin might be a good balance between price and quality. Build quality is about what you'd expect from a well known company like Irwin, and is about as expected for the price. The head or lifting end is configured so that all you need is a gap maybe 1/8 to 1/4 inch to get the jaws in place (and yes, I've tapped them into a narrow slot with a rubber mallet - worked fine, no damage. Anyway, once you get the jaws in the gap, squeezing the handles will cause the jaws to open up and either lift your item, or widen the gap if you want to separate something. Capacity is rated at 330 pounds, and while I didn't use a scale I would agree, that is about what a guy of average hand strength could lift, as it doesn't use a jack handle, but rather a handle you squeeze. Sturdiness wise, I would say it can easily hold 330+ pounds and hold it steady/securely.I really like the way the jaws are designed, there is a wide jaw with a gap in the middle, which serves as the base. The movable jaw fits inside that gap, so that when it lifts, it lifts straight up, with no tendency to want to tilt to either side. Also, by fitting inside that gap, it is flush with the base when fully lowered making it easy to get into small gaps.By far my favorite feature is the controlled lowering handle. The reversable clamps I mentioned earlier are what I used to use, and while they are OK where they fit as far as lifting/spreading, they not only take a much larger gap to be able to be used, they have no controlled release. With the Irwin, if you lift something a quarter inch too high, you just squeeze the controlled release lever, and it goes down with the same precision as it went up. When you are done using it and want to just drop it all the way, it also has a standard release lever that allows it to drop fully. I understand it is kind of a niche tool, but it does a very good job filling in the niche between the cheap undersized $30 ones, and the professional $300 ones.

For a lot of people, these may not be a tool you use every day, but they are incredibly helpful when you do. I had purchased some of the cheapo knock-offs as I wasn't sure if I would need them often enough to justify the more expensive versions. I used those a couple times, and they are definitely best only used for things that are very light. These Irwins make the cheapos seem like toys. And if you are lifting things with any amount of weight, the safety issue alone makes these the better option.I ended up snagging two of these when on sale for $80 each. I sometimes need to move and/or work on very heavy pieces of fitness equipment, and these will be very helpful in lifting them so I can slide rolling dollies underneath. The other day, I used one on a treadmill, and it had no trouble lifting the heavier end of the machine. They are built very well and are strong as heck. If they help to avoid just one lifting-related injury or damage to an item, they've paid for themselves.

I was looking to purchase a jack for various residential construction uses. I opted to purchase an Irwin product as my experience with their other products has always been positive. There are a lot of jacks for sale at a fraction of the price for this product however I didn't and would not trust them.This is a substantial, well-made product. It allows for precise lifting and lowering operations and the mechanism is solid as a rock. I used it for leveling a heavy set of connected cabinets and also used it as a second hand for hanging some doors. Couldn't be happier with the quality.
