Wouldnt buy those :nope:
Not got a safety locking pin as far as I've seen (and 2 reviews say under cons "no locking pins") so you whack it with your foot or a breaker bar or something and it can release.
I'd spend the extra for some with a locking pin, personally I prefer the manual slide up/down ones with a locking pin (non-foldable) as you know its not going anywhere, A mate of mine wont use axle stands anymore since a set of halfords ones (foldable I believe) collapsed on him, he always uses a massive block of wood or another solid object. (cant say if he was using incorrectly as wasnt there)
