What Customers Are Saying

The adjustable jack post is generally an effective and affordable solution for supporting sagging floors, beams, and other structural issues. Many found it easy to install and adjust, and it was able to stabilize and lift their floors as needed. The product is described as sturdy and functional, though some noted the header/footer plates are thin. Customers appreciated the adjustability, which allowed them to fine-tune the height as required, and several mentioned using it to temporarily support structures during repairs. However, a few cautioned that the adjustment mechanism needs to be handled carefully to avoid pinching fingers. Overall, the jack post seems to be a practical and budget-friendly option for homeowners dealing with structural problems, though the quality of some components may be a concern for more heavy-duty or long-term use.

Ends not square

Would Recommend

I had to dress up the ends which would not seat flat out of the box. Ends were bumpy. Still worked fine.

Does the job!

Would Recommend

Used these to reinforce a 100 year old home which we acquired. Simple and economical. Does exactly what it’s supposed to do!

Does the Job, but Flimsy

Would Not Recommend

I bought this model because it's adjustable. The part that houses the screw sits loosely on the top half of the pole, and isn't very stable until it's tightened fairly snugly against the object you need to support. The bottom half of the pole sits on a loose plate. I've rented and used other post jacks, all were built much sturdier. I'd only recommend this for a one-time use, unless you have a welder and can secure the top and bottom pieces to the posts.

jack post

Would Recommend

allot of people use these for permanent use. I would advise the solid post for that, however, for a quick fix or temporary support these are perfect.

Jack 'EM up

Would Recommend

Held a cracked floor joist up during repair - excellent. I did not try to jack with this but used it to hold only after jacking. May have been usable as a screw jack but I'll never know. Held well for the days needed and is robust enough to use as a permanent post to take the curse out of a warped and sagging floor if that's what you need.
