Forgot one of the best ones! The brand I SHOULD have gotten but went with Gemini instead.....


ROTARY LIFT


They're made in Madison Wisconsin I think.

I have always heard that about Rotary. Tops in lifts. I went to a buddy's shop and looked at his two. His are a few years old and maybe they are lower end models? They are not as beefy as my BendPak. Doesn't mean they aren't better, they may have better steel, better engineering, better welds, whatever. The most important thing is exactly what you said Greg, If I'm getting under it...

Yes. My Gemini is fine. It's US made. Not as low as I'd like it to be but I overcome that using small ramps to drive up on.

Quality is fine.

anyone try the Challenger lift? Their 10k lift looks very nice and they have a different type of asymetric lift which is pretty slick

The mobile lifts look pretty cool too! My next house will have a REAL garage and a lift. They do look pretty good... and flexible. Do you need the flexibility?
