Bottle Jack/Jack Stand Combo on a 4 Post Jack Tray

Has anyone ever used something like this (https://www.homedepot.com/p/Powerbuilt-3-Ton-All-in-One-Bottle-Jack-Jack-Stand-640912/203116783) on a jack tray of a 4 post lift instead of a trolly jack?

I’ve never even seen one but I think I like it. I use jacks on my tray occasionally when my Jack is in use. Which means space planning can be a bit difficult if I feel like being the least bit safe . I might have to take a look.

Yes, I use two of these with my jack tray to get all four wheels in the air for tire rotations/brake jobs. Very useful.

I've used jack stands (different from the linked ones) with my jack tray to support one end of the vehicle (usually the lighter non-engine end) so I could move the bridge jack to the opposite end and have all four wheels off the runways to rotate tires. Wouldn't replace my bridge jack, however. Just obviates the expense of owning two bridge jacks, which I'd love to have but too expensive for the few times when I need all four wheels off the runways.

I also used one of my jack stands in the jack tray this week to hold the starter up when pulling and replacing the starter on my 67 corvette--had to pull the starter to replace the solenoid and those OEM starters are too heavy to hold one handed while trying to unbolt/bolt up the starter with the other hand.

Looks like a useful alternative, the only drawback being the initial height. A little too tall for your typical passenger car.
