Default 4 post lifts

Just wondering what people have found to be decent without an arm and a leg. Anyone have any experience putting one together? Anyone have one they would NOT recommend????

I bought 2 of the superlifts, had them assembled, but seeing it done, its not hard, just takes a few strong guys. I went with superlifts because my application is for storage only, and the number of up and down cycles is maybe 6 times a yr....so after discussion with the superlift guys, i went with them. You can get the installer to do the install on the side and save a 100 dollars if u want to go that route.

I have a 5 year old Rotary "Revolution" model 4 post. Rotary makes a lot of the commercial lifts in the US. I use it A LOT and it works very nicely. I had it pro installed (very heavy) and made in US with good warranty

You might want to clarify the USA made 8 year old Bend pack claim with the company you bought it from. Assembled in the USA would be more accurate, in my experience. Is there really a made in the USA designation on anything other than the power unit?

Other than that fact, it's equal to many of the hobbiest lifts like it. They work fine and are not known to fail due to poor workmanship or quality of materials. I would choose them over a BYB for car storage needs.
