Can't tell anything from the photo with any certainty.  The impression the photo leaves, however, is that the unit is a thin and a light.  That scissor lift made my skin crawl thinking about almost a half ton of bagger on it.

I've got one that I dont use.  It was from Harbor Freight and very narrow.  Bike want to run off the ramp when going on or off.  No room for oil changes due to the lip on each side to keep wheel on track.   Think mine was 175 as a floor model.  Not impressed at all with it and bought a Handy 1000 air lift with drop tail.  Definitely not worth the 400 buck he wants.  I'd sell mine for a 100.00 but pick up only?

Handy makes the best in my opinion. I have seen more than one bagger fall off of a lift, not worth the risk.

If the right deal comes along for a used Handy or a used Direct lift I'm in.
If I was to buy a new one today it would be this one.

Nice lift, the best price I saw was just under $1,800.

I have a Direct Lift with extended table for long bikes and removable rear for tire service. I think it was about $650 with freight. I wasn't to happy when I saw the made in China sticker on it but the quality is good enough for professional users.

These could be a whole new topic, but as far as "made in china" it would propbably be 3x as much if it was made here. Sad to say, I would rather have them made here and keep jobs in America but......

I'm not certain which lift is the best. I say spend the $$ and get a sturdy unit! You don't want your "Pride and Joy" falling off onto you, your kid or your grandkid. The "Handy" lift looked good to me.
