To be fair, I bought a Horrible Freight aluminium jack, not only for the low
price, but because I only use it every two months or so. I may jack the
front of the car up, for better access to change the oil, or every so often
to rotate the tires. If I used it every day, I bet it would have been dead
by now. If it lasts the next 10 years, at the rate of being used, an average
of 6 times a year, I'll be just fine.
