It's no less stable than any other jack. It's jfunny how people always ask that. The design works great and it's so easy to use and very small. As you know, jacks shouldn't be used on uneven surfaces to begin with, so if you are worried about this with this jack then there you go. You also wouldn't jack the car up very high as, you only need to get the car lifted just enough to remove the tire.
I love it because it's easy to carry in the car, it's light and a breeze to use.

The Mercedes jack is also used on some VW's. According to a listing on ebay, it is used on 99-04 Golf and Jetta cars. I called a local German salvage yard and got one for $35. Mine is painted black rather than being galvanized but it works fine.

I had the same problem. I was forced into the commercial account now Pay Pal takes a percentage of every transaction which sucks!
I don't blame Pay Pal as they have to pay a percentage on every credit card transaction. People just need to link their primary pay to a checking or savings account.
