Worked up in one of these at about 165 feet at Flint hills Pine bend refinery in Rosemount Minnesota. Didnt think I was afraid of heights as I have sky dived and hang glided but that shit was spooky up there. We were attatching hose piping to the side of one of the towers. Scary as fuck when that wind is blowing your basket around.

I worked out of one of these today. Often working at height as I do structual steel. Today was particularly hairy. If you pull down on that stick to boom down it comes down quite hard and stops suddenly. Was up around 50m or 150 feet today pinning steel and doing edge protection. Overloaded basket way up in the air and it overloaded. Needed my groundy to bring me down to a walk way bout 2/3rds the way up. N drop some gear out. It was gusting 14m/s and blowing me around. Not a nice feeling. Rain was comn in. Its winter in Australia. Winds are always up.

I was up my highest two days ago at night in Kentucky,cold,16mph wind at 113ft ,that’s my highest so far and I told my boss never again at night or on windy days or nights but I was so fucking scared ,daytime wasn’t as bad and my supervisor is very well experienced with jlg and lifts in general and he didn’t like the conditions,but it is a experience I don’t want to ever take again,if my harness was connected to gods leg I will never go above 60ft again,fuck that shit,it’s for the birds.

I run the JLG1850(185’) nightly. It’s a great machine. Well...I guess they all are, until they aren’t! Joke aside, our “185” is smooth and precise. It does display a funny hiccup(at times) though. If I rotate the basket, in either direction, the basket will drop 2 to 3 feet, upon utilizing any other function. This occurs, when I least expect it, and scares the crap out of me!

You have no grounds for this you are just biased toward another like some people only buy DeWalt. In reality all lifts are laiden with sensors and are way overbuilt for their ratings.
