Default Garage Car Lift - QuickJack BL-5000

Has anyone used the QuickJack BL- 5000 garage car lift? I found a user write up of it being used with a C5 Z06 and the review was positive.

Looks like a reasonable light duty solution. I've used a Bendpak MD6-XP for 12 years now on dozens of cars and it's been flawless. A bit more money though..

I don't think I can post non-vendor supported links but the vendor is Bendpak, price depends on the model, this one looks like it is $1295.

Workshopdepot is willing to do this although it might be hard to find 8 people.

I'm also considering. I currently have a Kwik Lift .. but this looks a lot easier and I'm not getting any younger.

I would like one also but I am concerned about damage to my RaceDeck floor. Don't know if it would leave indentations or even break the tiles.

I have similar flooring. I think I would place plywood under the jack to protect the flooring and distribute the weight across the tiles. I hope there would be enough space for the jack and the plywood though. The min height of the jack is 3", plus 3/4" for the plywood plus I have the jack point pucks installed so another 1/2" - pretty tight.
