Get those blades razor sharp with these two methods: Cheapest vs MOST Expensive Lawn Mower Blade Sharpening: Tested and Reviewed ruclips.net/video/judX7wlBqFQ/видео.html
Awesome review and thanks. I think i may get one of these now versus taking my deck off every time I need to sharpen my blades and clean out from under the deck!
You’ll definitely do the maintenance more often if it’s easier to get access. I should really be sharpening my blades more frequently and I’m confident this will allow me to do just that.
@regsparkes6507 glad you liked the review. I left some links in the video description if you’re thinking about getting one. It comes down to what size mower you have and lifting capacity so I linked a few options so you can see the differences. 👍
Decent video. Nice editing. I'm shocked by your comment that people complained the BOX was too heavy?! Really? They should stick to playing video games and having a lawn service!
"Who's got time for instructions, right?" 😆😆 I heard you say that and paused the video to come right here and post LOL (also gave you a 'Like' & subscribed!) 👍
Takes up a lot of room when not in use and isn't wide enough for larger zero turns ,you must check width of front wheels as I had to modify for my Scag Cheetah and widen so caster wheels would fit.
Good information, thanks for the input and hopefully it helps people make important buying decisions. But how do you like your Scag? I hear pretty good things about the brand.
Can you please post a quick video on storage space required for the lift? How much of my garage will be taken up by a lift I'll use once or twice each summer?
That’s exactly where I was with it. Yes you can lift it with other things, but the dedicated jack is so much easier. I’ll probably keep my blades much sharper too since it’s so easy to get them off and on now.
Pro tip- you don’t need to pay for one of these. Find a berm and park the mower across the bottom elevation change. Save your cash and buy yourself a beer for being a smart guy.
I'm sorry, but I feel like this is a waste of money. It's 300 dollars for a jack that is only useful for a lawnmower, and only 500 lb capacity so commercial mowers are out of the question. There's also the fact that it still blocks the front of the mower. I have a better solution for you. If you want to go cheap. Then for 80 bucks you can get a bolt on/weld on d-ring and a chain hoist. Attach the d-ring to a ceiling main frame member near the center front of your work area and hang the chain hoist from it. If you want the more expensive option that's still reasonably cheap, northern tool sells a gantry crane for 500 dollars. Uses a chain hoist as well, but offers more mobility/flexibility. Amazon would probably have examples of both options for even cheaper but I haven't looked. The benefits of this approach is significantly more weight capacity, less obstruction when working on the mower, cheaper and/or more bang for buck, more versatile equipment which can be used for more than one application, and more. At work, we have on numerous occasions, hung an entire 1500 lb mower 4-5 feet off the ground to work underneath it (always support it with jacks just in case). They don't block you from sliding under from the front where you have the most room. They have been useful in a multitude of other projects. I could continue on. It's just an overall better system than the tool you purchase specifically for jacking up a mower. I'm not saying this to criticize, just offering a different solution that's more cost effective, would be useful in more ways, takes up less space, and is overall just a treat to use

Looks like a nice lift, great video!
Hey Justin, thanks for stopping by
Yep, I agree. No BS and corny music,..so I watched all the way through. Now, I think I'll order one.

Great video, you covered it all.

Yeah, gonna need to get that. been fighting ramps and jacks for 20 years, tired of it.
