The product is manufactured in a typical not very durable form. The contents are wrapped in bubble wrap and the product simply lies in the box with no straps as you can see in the photo. Objects fly around in it. The screw package burst and the safety pins fell out. In terms of durability, I bought it because I didn't want to use stand alone spring compressors which are usually extremely dangerous but a lot cheaper. Given the size of these tools, the bolt is undersized and seems to fail after a pair or two of compression spacers. Upon opening the content, there appears to be an alternative block for this, which has a moving base. What you are buying here is only the top with the compression part. Initially I thought I would have to build myself a floor stand as the handles are very long and threaded on both ends. I place it on the table with the handles at the end and press the back against the table. I think I'm going to use it in a way that then, as they say, occasionally needs to build an add-on to hold the device. I was going to use a 3 1/2" square metal tube and weld it to the base plate as a stand, but I think that would be overkill compared to how often it's used. can be neatly and securely packaged and stored away so there are no more parts flying around in the box. Haven't used it yet so will update the review next time I use it. The threads are very coarse and much larger in diameter than smaller spring loaded tools. The Threads are not lubricated so before working on this I will make sure everything is lubricated to minimize sticking.
