Re: 4 post lifts
I have a 5 year old Rotary "Revolution" model 4 post. Rotary makes a lot of the commercial lifts in the US. I use it A LOT and it works very nicely. I had it pro installed (very heavy) and made in US with good warranty

Re: 4 post lifts
You might want to clarify the USA made 8 year old Bend pack claim with the company you bought it from. Assembled in the USA would be more accurate, in my experience. Is there really a made in the USA designation on anything other than the power unit?
Other than that fact, it's equal to many of the hobbiest lifts like it. They work fine and are not known to fail due to poor workmanship or quality of materials. I would choose them over a BYB for car storage needs.

Re: 4 post lifts
Ok well I didnt know I had to show proof in the court of yenko.net but here ya go.I never thought my lifts would be subject to a teardown but that might be possible too here on this website.And its not just the power unit.Just to be sure I called them and at the time I bought mine they were made in USA but NOW they are made in china.

Re: 4 post lifts
They are getting harder to find MADE in the USA!

Re: 4 post lifts
I have one made by Direct Lift I bought from Greg Smith Equipment. It was $1700 out the door, I went down to Delaware to get it (no sales tax). I'm happy with it. Wasn't too difficult to install, but having a way to lift the runways is a must. Those things are HEAVY. I mainly needed it for storage and it's worked very well for it.
