Can someone answer Why anyone would Get the Feedback in this comparison : They are Nice : But the Build Quality is all Park Tool :

I could understand if you are traveling and entering events : But for the Average Person Who owns plenty of Garage Space : It appears the Park Tool is meant to last forever :

SO is compactness The Feedback's only Plus in this instance ? You can't even do 360 with it as far as I could tell.

I've had one of the older Feedback Sports repair stands for about 25 years and it's still in excellent condition. I don't own a shop or do commercial repairs but it is used a fair bit so longevity isn't really an issue. And, yes, you can rotate its clamp 360º and lock it firmly in any orientation.

I'm sure the Park stand is a great choice but the Feedback is in the same league, lighter and easier to store. For many home mechanics, even with ".....plenty of garage space", that's a benefit.

Feedback uses aluminum tube*, Park, Steel . so there is your weight difference .

I bought my Feedback Pro Elite when it was still Ultimate Pro Elite. It is an excellent product.

Feedback sports bought Ultimate at least 10 years ago I think so I have owned the stand for roughly 15 years, but the design hasn’t changed. It is still going strong. I have had to replace the odd piece here and there (plastic bits that control tube adjustability, e.g.) but they have been readily available cheap from Feedback Sports, and the company has been excellent to deal with even though I bought the stand before they owned acquired Ultimate. The Feedback clamp is different than the Park, and the quick release button on the Elite is a nice feature. Also, obviously, an adjustable stand gives you ability to work on the bike in a wider array of positions than does a bench mount stand.

There is no such thing as "plenty of garage space".
There is also this thing we have called winter when stuff moves from the garage to the basement.

I personally love my old feedback stand.
