not true, if you get a cheap one the lowering nut will leak and let the car down slowly as its stood. get a desent one.
whereas axel stands, as long as they are from a reputable supplier are axle stands

i've just got a 2tonne jobber from halfords which came with free axle stands.
does the job whenever it's needed, but i'd occasionly like it to go a bit higher.
may invest in a bus jack one day
