Default Floor jack

Anyone have any recommendations for a nice floor jack?
I recall seeing some people say that they like the aluminum Craftsman one. But Sears has this great feedback system on their website and turns out these don't hold up at all! Same for their regular floor jacks. Since that was my first choice, I'm looking for a backup plan.

I don't need anything fancy, just something that will last and cost between $1-200.

Thanks guys. Looks like I should check out the cheap options at Harbor Freight and Walmart first.

Here's the aluminum Sears jack. Click on the reviews to read about the POS.

Wow, timely post, Kurt. That Craftsman jack was on my Xmas list, but not anymore. Close call...
