Storage and equipment, described in detail
Garage equipment rather than hand tools: tool trolleys, car ramps, brake bleeders.
The mechanism. The trolley entry names ball-bearing slides and central locking; the ramp entry states the load per ramp as well as per set, which is the ambiguity that catches people out everywhere else in that category.
Load per drawer on the trolleys, and approach angle on the ramps. Both would complete the picture, and neither is published.
Entry to mid price on equipment that is normally sold on appearance. Naming the slides and the load convention is what separates them.
Rated 5 t per set / 2.5 t per ramp stated · HDPE · 22 cm (8.7 in) high, 30 cm (11.8 in) wide · non-slip surface
A pair of HDPE ramps rated 2.5 t each, 22 cm (8.7 in) high and 30 cm (11.8 in) wide — the plain, light way to get a car high enough for an oil change.
Best for: An oil change or an underbody inspection on a car with normal ground clearance.
3 l pressure vessel · manual pressure system · integrated gauge · one-person operation stated
A 3 liter manual pressure bleeder with a gauge: fluid is pushed down from the reservoir, which is the method that gives the most consistent result alone.
Best for: Bleeding brakes alone, on a car whose reservoir the supplied cap fits.
7 drawers · central locking · ball-bearing slides stated · 4 castors, 2 swivelling with brakes · steel
Seven drawers on ball-bearing slides with a central lock, at the price where most trolleys still use friction slides.
Best for: A first proper trolley, where the slides matter more than the badge.
