I have the 5k as well, its working great after the initial setup.
I have my car on it now to install a splitter, I was going to install side skirts as well, but they are in the way of where I need to be so I will need to i guess place stands underneath the car and lower it on them to get access to the side skirt area when the time comes.
even though it does take time to move them around and adjust it works a heck of alot better than a jack especially when next to the wall on my garage it would be tight to get the full movement.
the best thing I like is the height it gets and it locks into place and then I can remove the hoses and pump/motor and have plenty of room all around most of the car.
going to be doing an oil change, as well as trans and rear end fluids with it so going to get some work in the next month.
I wanted a 4 post lift but the problem of getting one delivered and installed become too much for me to worry about and with the extra money I saved I spent on mods
I got my SLX5000 from Costco a few years ago. Speaking with the Quick Jack guys while I was at SEMA I learned that Costco will not have the Latest Model (TLX5000). The difference is 3 inches higher lift. From my experience that is huge. https://www.quickjack.com/car-lifts/5000tlx/
What's the difference between the NEW TL Models vs. SLX Models?
The biggest difference between the 5000TLX and BL-5000EXT is the lifting height, which has increased 3 inches. This provides ample room to perform all the common vehicle maintenance tasks and allows you the capability to perform even the most complicated repairs.

I’ll settle with Costco. 3 inches more isn’t worth over $600.00 !
Another 5000 owner here. I thought the 7000 would be just to heavy for me to handle. When not in use the 5000 is not too hard to hang on the wall:
PS: The jack is great for other uses too. Funny, oil change on the ATV is way more work than the C7. [PS: I did add safety straps around a couple wheels after taking the photo.]
