Thoughts on any others?
Just get the HF low profile jack, stop wasting $
Finally, someone speaks with sense. Its absolutely amazing to me how people feel "safer" and sleep better at night because they wasted money on a brand name jack and jack stands. They all do the same thing and are tested and proven to be safe.

The only reason you might need a higher quality jack is if you were using it professionally, day in day out. Then you may wear out a HF unit quicker... but wait a minute dont they have life time warranty on all their tools?!

Right... so there's absolutely no reason to spend more money for a label. Its idiotic.

Jack stands with special lifting points made for a BMW would be an exception for convenience but certain not safer by any means.
