I want to buy a 2 post hoist for my garage, just wondering is any of use guys have had any good (or bad) experiences with hobbyist priced lifts. When I was working at the dealerships, the Rotary brands were great, but a commercial grade lift is more $$$ than I am looking to spend. A few brands that I have been looking at, have been Forward, Atlas, Challenger, and Peak. Since the ceiling in my garage is 11 feet, it would appear that I will be limited to a "floor plate" model with the cables running under a steel cover plate, above the floor. I would prefer a "clear floor" model with no covers on the floor, but most seem to require at least a 12 foot ceiling, and I would like to not deal with modifying my ceiling. Looking for something in the 8-9,000 pound range, and hopefully under $3000. Any thoughts?
