Why do jacks last only 3 to 5 uses?

I went out to change the winter tires out for my summer tires and guess what, after a single year of use now my jack no longer works.

I had already ruined the jack for the spare tire, so I had bought another one and got a bottle jack.

Well, that bottle jack ended up dying, so I got a better brand one that was much larger. Now it stopped working too.

I can't use a floor jack, my driveway is made of dirt.

I'm getting kind of sick of having to buy a new jack every time I need to rotate tires or change summer rims and tires in and out.

Any suggestions of what jack to get?
