I have a two post lift that I purchased on ebay from directlifts. The reasons I bought two post were lower cost and better access to work on the car. The lower cost was because there was no need to purchase the additional jack to raise the car to remove wheels. There are a couple of things to keep in mind, one of which is safety which had already been mentioned. The other is ceiling height, the lift requires almost 12 feet of ceiling height. Another is installation, this lift weighed 1500 pounds and it is no small task to raise those columns safely. I used the front end loader on my tractor but even with that raising columns that weigh 600 pounds or so is a little nerve wracking.

I've often thought about getting a 4 post lift so that I could use the one the best suits the job I'm doing.
