The lift is manufactured by Bendpak. It was shipped from California for $2862.00 including shipping. That is an excellent price considering we paid $4500.00 for a standard two post lift almost ten years ago. I chose this lift because it eliminates the posts and the associated floor space they require. I can't wait to use it for routine chores like waxing the car. Obviously fluid changes are going to be a cake walk. Thanks for the positive comments.

Wow, very nice!! I've always dreamed of a lift in my place. Although, I'm a bit more space compressed than you....I think

How high is your ceiling?

Here's the one I've been looking at:

How high is your ceiling...my garage has a full 8ft ceiling, but I doubt I could put a lift up that high.

Oh well...one can dream !

My garage ceiling is 11'10" high. I planned on having a lift when I built the house. My wife asked why the ceilings were so high and I told her it was required by the building code.
