Omega 26030 3 ton aluminum floor jack

Does anyone have any evaluative comments on the Omega 26030 3 ton aluminum floor jack based on experience or just reviewing information about the jack online? I apologize if I missed something, but I haven't been able to find much in the way of reviews of this jack here or elsewhere on the internet.

Please assume I have a valid reason for wanting a 3 ton floor jack that doesn't weigh 100 pounds plus or even 70 or 80 pounds, that the jack will not see heavy use, and that I want a very reliable, quality jack that will last a long time and that I'm willing to pay an appropriate premium for a jack that offers something more than aluminum jacks that cost less but don't want to pay a premium for re-branding of something that is equivalent to a cheaper jack.

I'm asking about this jack for a few reasons. Compared to other 3 ton aluminum jacks I've seen discussed, the specs for this jack show a good lifting range, at 44 pounds (subject to verification) it is about ten pounds or so lighter, and Hiball has said he likes the Omega line because of U-cup seals. I'm not sure how the hydraulics in this jack stack up against Hiball's preference for simplicity, which he argues generally makes for a more reliable jack.

As I understand it, Omega is a Shinn Fu brand that is in the upper end of jacks made in China.

This jack appears to run $335 from some online sources, but one is Zoro that often runs discounts around 25-30 percent for purchases of that size, which would bring the jack to around $250 delivered from them (they currently have it backordered). Zoro says they have a number of orders for it and that it sells well, but no one has reviewed it on their website.

Anybody got anything on this jack or any other aluminum floor jack worth a premium over a Harbor Freight aluminum jack?

What about Sunex, for example?

Sunex Model 6603ASJ

Or how about this?

Norco 71330

Taking a gamble on bumping this thread because the Norco 71330 and Omega 26030 are on my list for next floor jack. I also wanted to elaborate on Norco with some information I found.

Otto Service recommends Norco products, if going with an import, due to the use of quality seals. Here are some excerpts from their "Floor Jacks Background" article:

"NORCO has a mixture of products ranging from Denmark, China, Taiwan and the USA. Their China products are made by the well respected YASUI company and by using Japanese seals have become very credible tools."

"The remaining low cost Chinese jacks are difficult to recommend on any level with the exception of the Norco models using Japanese seals, they, in fact, are proving to be the best jacks around for the money!"

The page was last updated in 2008, so this information may or may not be true still. Also, Otto Service only sells the Norco's steel floor jacks which could make the above information irrelevant.

I compared the parts diagram for two of the steel jacks (71223A and 71335) with that of the aluminum jack (71330). The steel models show their respective hydraulics as a "Power Unit Assembly" whereas the aluminum model lists individual components and a seal kit. What does this mean? I'm not sure, but reaching out to Norco would be the next step.
