Mid Rise Scissor Lift

[DannyG]

I'm thinking about getting a mid rise scissor lift for my home workshop. I have three vehicles, two fairly modern unibody types and my LX450. Will not have any issues lifting the two uni's, but have my reservations about lifting the LX. I plan to get the cross bars, which should help with the LX. I normally use a floor jack and 6 ton jack stands.

Curious if anyone here has hands-on experience with a mid-rise scissor lift—how’s it been for you in terms of stability, access, and workflow? Looking to hear what’s worked (or not) in real-world use.

Thanks,
dg

This really should be in the Tools forum, there's lots of discussion on this topic over there. From a design engineering perspective, with a lot of industrial safety experience, I'd never put a 80, or even a 40 on one of these. If height is the limiting factor, IMPO, you're better off with something like this:

Just remember, at this low price, order quantities are limited:

Welp, I was going to order six, but they just lost the sale!
