Nice idea, the spring loaded pins certainly contribute to the ease of use. But as with so many other new jacking methods, the car is still on
it's wheels. Brakes and suspension work usually need the car to be off it's wheels, and most engine work is done from the top. I guess
these would make it really easy to fix an exhaust?
If the platform could be converted to work on the chassis rather than the wheels then I think it's a winner.

It needs a 'Chassis Attachment' to fit under the jacking points on the chassis. Great bit of kit though.

I don't know how sturdy built these are but I would like to see them rocked back and forth a bit to see how they react. If I was working under
them I would still put a concrete block or big bit of wood in the middle.
Been there, done that;
well, similar sort of thing. (insert smug grin smiley)
I use mine a quite a bit. Saves my poor old back.
Either under the wheels, or in the case of the second pic, under the wishbone of an MX5
for the infamous rear wheel arch to sill repair.
