A waste of money [Posted on 2005-09-04]
I bought these jacks thinking they would be helpful. I was installing new kitchen cabinets by myself. While the concewpt is a good idea, unfortunately these jacks just don't do the job. They are poorly designed and cheaply made mostly of plastic. The end plates are too small and the jack post fit is too sloppy. You end up with a very loose and tippy jack. The height adjustment is too coarse to be able to tweak cabinet height to a line. I ended up tossing the jacks and doing it the old fashioned way with a ledger strip.

A little pricey but these are useful. Like their big brothers, these take a little time to break in and get used to using. If you work alone like me, you are always looking for tools/ways to make the job a little easier. These jacks work fine to support cabinets, apply pressure to countertops and a variety of other tasks that require a "3rd" hand. Like most Fast Cap products, the idea is great but the quality control has a little to be desired. All in all a decent product.
Good helper...needs improvements [Posted on 2008-02-17]
I had both this version and the bigger version that works for crown molding.
This one has a very good price/value ratio, I could adjust cabinet to perfection by myself. It's strong enough to hold cabinets on it...
My only concern , when trying to adjust the cabinets in place, this thing can raise the cabinet up with fine adjustments(one needs to get used to it), the problem comes when you need to LOWER it DOWN...the ONLY option you have is to release the handle and start pumping it up again....
Very annoying, I'm considering paying double the price for other brand like T-Jak (screw type) that work both directions smoothly.

I do a large amount of kitchen cabinet work. This tool is superb for setting cabints at the right heighth. Verry easy to use. Too bad it was made in China
Product was great but amazon has a problem [Posted on 2008-05-28]
The product was exactly as expected as i have the larger size 3rd hand already in use. The problem was that this product was sold as a "2 pack". When received there was one in the box. After calling Amazon they resent the order and told me to just send the original package back. As expected when it came there was one in the box. Now i have the 2 i ordered but Amnazon is waiting for my return. Sigh......after 2 phone calls i'm still tryting to explain to them that they have a problem in there stock room. The saga continues.....
