Default Opinions on 4 Post home garage lifts

I am looking to buy a 4 post car lift with ramps to use for storage and maint. at home. Any opinions on which brands to buy? I am not looking to spend needless amounts of money, but, on the other hand don't want to destroy cars and possibly myself in the search to save a few bucks. The lift would have a car stored on top and below 99.9% of the time. Thanks for the help.

I looked a a lot of them and ordered a back yard buddy. The construction is stronger than most on the market.

Bill, I have the Superior SR-7H lift and am very happy with. I ran a group purchase last year with some Corvette buddies (32 actually) and we got a pretty good deal - $3250 delivered with alum ramps, casters, jacking bridge, 6 drip trays, oil canister, 90 degree pump bracket. Email me if you want the contact name - they would likely give you the same deal.

What ceiling height do you need with these? My garage only has 9' ceilings.
