The biggest advantage to the LR jack is the cradle... and height... The cradle more importantly. If I could find a aftermarket one with the cradle, then I would probably get one.

Searched high and low myself for one with a cradle. I got a "new to me" one from Paul for just a little more than a new bottle jack costs in big box store.

why not just make a cradle to fit a regular bottle? bent rod or braced strap , a little welding, a little paint, maybe 30 minutes
