Short video looking at the advantages of locking jack stands. I decided to get some replacements for my old ratchet-only type jack/axle stands, which I was never quite happy with in terms of reliability and safety.
This locking design is the same convenient ratchet type, which allows you to easily position the height of the stand under the car, but has an additional pin as a back-up safety feature, so even catastrophic failure of either the ratchet pawl or the engaged tooth will not allow the car to fall.
Pictured are Torin brand stands, but these seem to just be relabeled Chinese distribution. Any similar design is recommended. Links:
