Anyone Use This Lift?
I have been using a friend's lift to the majority of my vehicle's maintenance but I would like to be able to do it in my own garage. I don't really have the option to put a permanent lift in my current garage, so I have been looking for other solutions and came across this:
http://www.ezcarlift.com
There is an assembly/usage review at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ag1IcZONWh8
Anyone use it or could recommend other similar systems? My only concern is that we have all those plastic covers under our car and I bet this would make it impossible to get them off. I guess they could be removed before getting the car up on the lift...

the thing i didn't see mentioned were some sort of safety latch while it is raised.
oh, and depending on how high this unit is while underneath the car. you could use a 2x4 block of wood and place it under the jacking points so it doesn't ruin the under panels.

Interesting concept. I do wonder about the safety in the raised position. Side to side rocking for instance. +1 on the saety latch.
Also didn't see any width adjustment. Couldn't find it on the web site....link please ?
Hope it's not made in China. $ 1800 seems a little steep.
