Interesting but not for me, I will stay with my trusty 2 tonne trolley jack that can be used anywhere.

One of the considerations is will it go under your car/caravan and will it lift high enough to get a wheel off.

If it met those criteria it seems like a good idea but at that price you have to wonder how long it will last.

Like a trolley jack it would take up a lot of room in your car if you wanted to carry it around with you. Using at home - I'll stick with my trolley jack, thanks.

Does it come with an App or AI?

It seems to have a rather narrow base, so may not be very stable - Amazon have it at £110, visually the same.

I'll stick with getting a technician to do anything needing a jack!

So will I with the caravan away from base, its all part of what I pay for. At home then its the faithful proper garage trolly jack gets used.

With the cars its different, the Golf if road conditions allow its the supplied "half jack" that I have used and found works well.
With the Disco, I am not as impressed with their scissor jack but again if road conditions are favourable I would use it. However, with the Disco its easier and IMO safer to use the trolley jack at home.

Direct lift jacks like in the OP are a danger with just lifting one side of a vehicle, the greater the suspension travel the worse so as this inevitably tips these types of jack.

I am not into carrying extra after market jacks, solo or with the van.
