Default Auto Lifts

I am at the Barret Jackson Auction and in the market for a home auto lift and I have narrowed my search to 2 manufacturers Superlifts SR model and the second one is a Rotary lift sold by a company called Revolution. Any input good or bad would be appreciated.

Thanks

Researched it in the pass. Mohawk makes a great 2 post lift that is better for working under the car. But their 4 post is overkill and they said that rotary had one of the best 4 post available for home garages.

Let me start with a basic question. Why do you want a lift? Storage (four post) or for working on vehicles (two post)?

Storage is primary reason and working on the cars woudl be secondary. A 4 post system would be better but ima not sure about the two manufacturers.
Thanks

I own a Superlifts four and two post lift. Both are excellent in terms of reliability and performance. You'll need to anchor the two post to the floor so keep that in mind. I was at BJ this week and they have a great display almost right outside the auction room.
