Thanks -- I was confident about my purchase and am now second-guessing it. 😃
1) higher lift rating, maybe due to the metal parts for the locking & release components mentioned earlier,
2) 3 things it can do instead of 2, jack, clamp, and unlike the Klein, it can also spread, which looks super useful,
3) it is toolless to convert, which is convenient imho, and
4) I enjoy and have many Klein tools (they are one of the brands I typically trust when shopping for some tool or another, especially for electrical work, Jorgensen is known for their clamps, I have some and they are highly functional and very well made.
So, I am sticking with the Jorgensens.

Worth noting: the Klein in this post as well as the Jorgensen both include the foot and lifter pads. The similar Dewalt product does not include pads; they're an additional purchase accessory with limited availability.

Point well made about the company's histories -- I've been somewhat curious about Klein's explosion into other areas recently since I've had some of their electrical tools for years. I wonder if the expansion (at Lowe's exclusively?) has been something that they've done in-house or if they have contracted out to other manufacturers and slapped their name on them like perhaps with these jacks.
Also, couple things on the Amazon reviews: Multiple people state that the Jorgensen is only rated for 350lbs as stated in the manual -- same as Klein. Can anyone confirm who bought them? And one person bought the Jorgensen and the Klein and preferred the Klein, side-by-side. However, several people reported failures with the Klein one (and Jorgensen "bought" favorable reviews with free products to Vine users).
