I've used this lift many, many times now...mostly to wash the underside of the mower deck but also for getting at the drive end of the mower. Using it regularly should help my mower deck last many, many years.
It's easy to use, but it's a fulcrum, so having a little bit of body weight is helpful. Being a fulcrum, there's nothing to break down and the locks keep it into place.
I'm very happy with it and the price I paid.
