I actually purchased the Canadian Tire one a couple months ago on sale. I didn't like it so I returned it.
I did a fair bit of research and I wound up buying the Tire Rack 2 Ton jack http://www.tirerack.com/accessories/detail.jsp?ID=67 I purchased it because it is a bit more capacity, has a higher lift and never read any bad reports about it.
The Princess Auto jack was my second choice.

LMAO, I cracked up when I read the description:

"Stroke: 8 to 9 times to reach max. lift"

I think that should be rated x or maybe my minds in the gutter again.

I got the PA floor jack. The first one I got leaked, but there were no problems in getting it exchanged. I'm happy with it but would prefer a little more lift at times.

That's why I got the Tire rack jack, it's range is 3 1/2" to 19".
I know Swivelhips also has the PA floor jack and he is very satisfied with it.

Great price. I have one aslo. IIRC you also need to buy a saddle and a hockey puck. You don't really need the saddle and puck if it only sits in the box in the garage as mine does.

I need to get a horse before I buy a saddle.
