Default Mid rise scissor lift?

This is what I am Getting
This is what I am Getting
There's lots of photo's of quick jacks in use, but I'm looking to get a scissor lift. Does any one have photo's of one in use, or feed back as to limitations or how good they are?
Thanks.

Haven't seen that type before. Question I have is are there any manual locking devices to protect you while working underneath? Also, will your car's wheelbase allow the lifting plate to rise between the tires?

My quick jack works well, but I do like the idea of just driving over and on to it!

I have been using quick jack for many years, but looking forward to the ease of just driving over this and the extra height of 1 metre. Have chalked it out on the floor so will fit ok. Should arrive next week.
