I have a Bend Pak 4 poster in the garage and would not trade it for the world. May be a little pricier than some of the other ones, but do you really ever want to worry about your car crashing down on your head ??

And to address Zabo's valid concern - there are mechanical interlocks every 4 inches that require 60 psi of air pressure to override when lowering. (i.e. The lift is defaulted to a locked position with no operator input - very safe - won't crush anything below if the hydraulics fail) In addition there is a redundant set of interlocks that engage if any of the cables were to fail)
