    Great review, best I have seen. I have been umming and ahhing about a scissor lift for a while, but ........................ still umming and ahhing. 🙂
    Being in WA/metro Perth, the biggest thing is usually freight, as originally all the outlets were East based, which can make it far more expensive; but now there are a few mobs who have a Perth outlet, so prices have stabilised a bit, and mean it is becoming within "justifyable reach."
    Not many of the reviews look at everything. For example, yours is the best at showing how the safety stops work.
    My problem is space, I have a three car garage that has three cars and 4 bikes squeezed into it, and (as I have old cars and bikes) there are a lot of bits for them. I will have to do some severe shuffling and culling to find space for it.
    I also have the standard height garage, so these are the best option. I designed/had this house built, so made the garage as big as it could be with small workshop space as well, but suburban block, so was limited. They are never big enough.
    Anyway, still umming and ahhing............... but this review helps a lot in me getting closer to a decision.
    Thanks. 🙂

      @@davidBarrel you would need to check with any suppliers to see if it is suitable, but for me the heaviest car I have is half the rated capacity of the lift and the contact area of the lift itself is larger than that of a car. I'm not bolting it in either, so for my needs it works fine.

  • @SuperPandaren
    @SuperPandaren 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Watched through the video, I have some question.
    Are these just placed on the floor or are they mounted in by bolt, adhesive, or anything else?
    Assuming these operated by hydraulic fluids, how often do you need to service the lift?
    Can it be operated via regular electricity from the household?
    Do you need to prep. the floor in anyway except for the usual cleaning, and making sure the floor is completely flat?
    Thanks,

    • @ShiftMotoring
      @ShiftMotoring  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      They can be bolted down, mine isn't.
      You should regularly check any equipment, but I don't use it heaps so every 12 months or so I check everything.
      This specific model is fine on a 10A plug, not all of them are, some are 15A.
      Some models may have specific requirements for the concrete grade, but that's a question for the retailer.

      ​@@ShiftMotoring Thank you for the reply. I'm looking for one for my home garage as well. But in my country these things are mostly imported from China and the welding looks really sketchy. I have yet to find one that looks like quality, except ones that are sold in bulk for car dealerships and mechanic shops.

In my case, I do not need to wheel it around in my garage because I thought things through and it is placed perfectly, even when parked, I can open my doors without issues. I have a friend with a lift with those car ramps and the engine in his Porsche 911 just clears them by 1/4 inch when dropping it. Never a problem with my 2-post lift. I went back and forth deciding which lift to get.
