This thing is GREAT!!!
I bought this item to use with a rented engine hoist for a transmission install. Best 30 something dollars I've ever spent!!! This thing saved me tons of time and frustration. It was as easy as a turn of a handle to get a CVT lined up perfectly with the engine. God tier tool. Build quality is decent and for a do it yourselfer like me its more then adequate. I cant compare it to another one because this is the only engine leveler I've ever used, but it worked better then I could have even hoped for. I have used Torin jacks and jack stands before, but this is the first item from their "big red" line I've purchased. As long as its kept dry and lubricated there's really nothing that can fail. I'm not sure what else to say except if you're doing an engine or transmission that needs to be lined up for installation, this equipment is a must have.

Very well made
Bought this to lift a 600 pound lathe onto legs. Also purchased a “cherry picker” (engine lift) to use this with. Very well made and sturdy. I ended up not using it because I had some heavy duty straps instead. Easy to connect to the lift. I decided to keep this for the future just in case. Very happy with the quality and price, though.

Gamechanger
After using this to pull motor and other lifting jobs, I don't know how I never bought one before makes a huge difference in lifting. Well worth it. This is very sturdy, is easy to operate, and and should be included with any hoist.

Good tool to have in the toolbox
This hoist worked great for me. Tried to install engine with chain only, but could not get it at the right angle. This item is well built and the cork screw shaft allows you to tilt the engine to the correct angle needed to mate with the transmission. The cork screw worked smoothly with no binding at all. I would recommend this item to anyone.

Gets the job done for a fraction fo the price!
I bought this one because it was far less than the cost of the name brand version. I only needed to lift a small MG 4-cylinder engine (about 250 lbs) and it is more than strong enough for this task. The ability to adjust "the angle of the dangle" is important when you need to clear a firewall, motor mounts, or align with a geabox, and the hand crank makes that easy. It seems well built and should handle anything up to its weight limit. Just keep the screw greased, don't leave it out in the rain, and it should provide years of service.

Worked great - while it lasted
I did two engine swaps with this tool and it worked well overall with some caveats.There are a few minor gripes that others have mentioned - at steep angles the handle interferes with a chain which can make it difficult or impossible to turn, and the plastic knob on the handle comes unthreaded.The leveler will drop shavings as the metal rod and guide cylinder wear. You will want to make sure there are no openings for those shavings to land in and potentially cause harm.My leveler experienced a failure of the metal cylinder the threaded rod passes through to angle the engine. The threads internal to that cylinder wore out from use, resulting in it skipping teeth while trying to adjust the angle. These loads were well within the weight rating, this is simply result of wear.I suggest adding grease to the threaded rod to reduce wear on the rod and particularly the positioning cylinder. That may increase the useful life of the wear components. It may also reduce the amount of shavings that land on your engine.Disappointing it's not more durable. 3 stars because it's "only" $30 and did 2 swaps (2 out, 2 in), although the last install was made more challenging due to the limited ability to change the angle.
