Scissor lift

[laff1234]

Afternoon all,

I've been looking at getting a lift for my garage. The ceiling is too low for a two post at just under 2.8m and I doubt the concrete would be up to the task of holding it, so I've been looking at a scissor lift.

Does anyone have one of these: https://impactgaragesupplies.co.uk/product/impact-...

Looks similar to the ones from automotech or the Strongman Clifton, however has a higher lift height of 1.2 meters instead of 1 meter like the rest. The only thing that gives me pause is that the website looks relatively new and there's not that many reviews or info from others who have bought. I gather that all of these scissor lifts are made in China, so do you think there is really much difference in terms of quality from one brand to the next?

Thanks

I don't have any experience of them personally but have toyed with the idea before, and never made the jump for the reason that they do seem to "hide" a lot of what you might want to work on when it is in the air.

Just worth looking into depending on what you want it for.

I went for a high left jack & set of 7-tonne axle stands.

I can relatively easily get the car around 750mm up at the stands.
