yes...I do.
I changed all sorts of tires on my knees with sweat dripping off the end of my nose for better than 4 decades...the HF machine is essentually a tire vice at work level...that alone is primo.
the bead breaker works fine...the prybar beats the h*ll out of prying over the rim.
it takes about 80% of the chore out of tire work. turns a 30 minute job into a 10 minute one.
the welds are Ok, but I'm not sure who set the steel up and said "looks good...nail it"...it's a hastily assembled chinese POS...but that said. it's still far better than my old kneeling on the floor system and WELL worth the $80 on sale price.
it HAS to be anchored into the concrete with the BMF anchors due to the leverage you use.
I don't even bother to run to the bro-in-law at the tire store anymore...car tires are a piece of cake and I can have 4 done faster than I can run down the road to use his big machine.
if you do tires, you'll definately appreciate it.
