I want really really good ones that I don’t have to jack a vehicle to match up with one of the elevation holes in the adjustment range.

You all have done it. Jack up vehicle, slide jack stand under. Up a notch it won’t fit, down a notch...too low! Hmmm, let me jack it up some more..oh too high, pull pin..clank! Ouch! Blood blister. Kick jack. Cuss.
Hilarious description

Ive decided never to jack up a car again and instead obtained a display cabinet that I can look at each day to remind me of all of the fun without the blisters
