Hi,
I paid about that price (+/- $50) for the Bend-Pak scissor lift, which is not as mobile but is much better built than the EZ CarLift. The Bend-Pak can be rolled around prior to pulling a car in over it, and also rises to 48", not just 26".
Of course your needs may be highly specific, but anyone considering a lift should PM me or search my previous posts to see the Bend Pak in my garage. Without question the best 'mod' I ever bought for my P-Car.
I'm not even joking. My $0.02

Is there a vid showing operation?
You might want to post in all the other technical forums here, if you haven't already, to increase your chances of finding two others.
Good luck.

I've always been interested in getting a small lift like that. Not sure if that's the best one out there. I'm puzzled why they don't have a full length video showing full lift rise from the stowed position. The video does show a power drill being used to jack it up but it stops short of full deployment. Maybe it takes like forever to get it fully up, and they don't want to discourage potential buyers if they see that it takes some time, and some wear and tear on your power drill.
I'd like to see independent reviews of this lift and hear testimonials from those who've owned it for years to see how well it's designed and put together. The lift mechanism is obviously (to me anyway) a power screw arrangement with a very shallow pitch angle on the threads, which not only allows self-locking but low torque input for use with a power drill to turn it. That's why it takes thousands of revolutions of the drill to get it to full extension. My concern would be the life of the bearings that are taking the full support load with that many revolutions. (Of course I'd have to see the internal design to determine the load path.) All anti-friction bearings (ball, roller, etc. not journals) have a finite life, and I'm just wondering how many lift cycles those bearings are good for, for the intended lift load.
Those are questions I would be asking. And they can just as easily be answered with testimonials from happy or unhappy customers who have used the lift for years.
