Does exactly what I needed at the right price. - This is decent value. Well made (ignore folk complaining the holes are not aligned, they are if you relax the nuts and then tighten). Instructions are laughable, refer to the spare parts diagram on the back of the leaflet and you’ll see exactly where everything goes. Yes, there is the odd light scratch (in my case I think from transit) but the paint is thick enough and seems good quality. It comes in two boxes, the long one of which was rather trashed on delivery but all was still inside. Once you get your head around that parts diagram it this is easy to assemble. I’ve not pushed it hard - my fly press only weighs around 150kg, but it lifted this with ease. Was also reasonably easy to move about once the weight is borne, which in my cramped workshop was a boon. The castors are metal and durable. It folds up nicely. As others have mentioned, a little standardisation of bolt and nut sizes wouldn’t have hurt at all, but really at this price if it does what you expect don’t complain. You only assemble it once. I think mine is a keeper so long as I have room. Something useful maybe once every couple of years, but when it is needed… Review: Cheap and simple and perfect for the job - Brilliant little crane and ideal for diy enthusiasts who don’t wanna spend too much. The instructions are difficult to read but apart from that the whole package is great. ## Features - 【GOOD ASSISTANT】This Switzer grey 1 ton hydraulic engine crane is a must-have for lifting engines, machinery and all heavy components.
