Several guys on the Vette forums using that lift. Nothing but glowing reviews.
I was supposed to get a lift in the third stall of my new house. Wife got central vacuum..I get lift. Somehow the lift never materialized. My wife now argues "what for? I thought you were done with big car projects.."

I do have this exact lift in my garage. I love it. The lift is built solid, and is held down by anchors with a strength rating way above requirements for the maximum load on the lift. It is true though that the strength of the anchor depends on the quality of concrete. They've assumed 3000 psi - which is pretty low so in typical installations the concrete will be better than required.

What still scares me is the lack of a solid link between the posts. The posts look fairly small too and hydraulic cylinders vs big *** continuous screws are a nay as well.
Don't get me wrong, it's a cool concept but i'd rather trust my life to something else.
Most lifts here have tri-phase, 380v motors and way bigger locks so maybe i'm just spoiled.
