My wife bought a Quick Jack for me last Sept for my 60th birthday. I use it a lot not just for my car but others I work on.

The Quick Jack Website has a good vid on assembling their products. Worth watching if interested.

They have both plug in AC and battery powered DC models (good for the track).

Looks very nice. Did you have any issues with the set up or QC? From the reviews most everyone loves the lift but many complain about damaged or missing parts. However, most everyone says the support is very good for those issues. It seems like it is most likely made out of the country and the selling vendor has no part in the packaging or checking the quality before shipping...I decided against a 4 post lift and still looking at these...

I didn't have any damaged or missing parts... but... these things are heavy and cumbersome for the delivery folks and the boxes can take a beating. At least one of mine was breached and some of the parts had fallen out. But at least my delivery guy made sure I had everything. If you have the option it might be best to pick it up at a Costco or other retailer who should handle these things properly and you could probably find one on the shelf that is completely intact.
