Default ESCO jackstands?

Is anyone using these jackstands?

Amazon Amazon

These look ideal for the C5 frame locations with the pucks. Last time around I used a reinforced 2x6 under the front/rear pads and "standard" type jackstands.

All experiences appreciated!

Don't have a set, but they look like they would be perfect. The majority of Jack stands have that curved head don't work

They’re the best, well made stand you can buy at a reasonable price. Best safety design.

I have two, no regrets.
