My daughter had 2 bad tires but only one we needed to change urgently so we could go to a tire shop to change it permanently. Luckily it was in the car so we were able to wear a spare until we got to the store. It worked, was quick and easy to set up, and quick to remove. I recommend any car over any other manual jack. The power cord is very durable, and it's not one of those flimsy wires that looks like it's about to snap or break just by looking at it. The cord reminds me of a heavy duty outdoor extension cord. I'll get one for each of our cars
