I wouldn't worry much about the Pittsburgh Jack's they're actually pretty well made. Much better than other brands I've used from stores with better reputations than HF. I've personally had my husky jack fail on me while my pittsburgh has not. It's also far better made than the husky jack that cost more for steel vs aluminum HF.
Many shops that use Jack's everyday use the pittsburgh and Daytona line. Ive also read from multiple sources that the daytona line is made in the same factory as snap on jack.
As far as Jack stands my husky JS's so far have held up fine although like others have stated, put an extra wheel or something underneath in case they fail.
