I’ve been using one for near a year now, would recommend for a home mechanic. The clamp isn’t strong enough by itself to hold the bike while you apply any major torque, like to a bottom bracket. That said, you can brace the bike with your spare hand and that solves it.
The only issue I had was one of the nuts holding the leg came off at some point, nearly collapsed under a large bike. Fixed by adding an extra nylon lock nut.
