I even like the fact that I can raise the car to the lower setting and detail all lower panels very easily just sitting on a rolling stool. Very versatile IMO comparing the cost and the fact you can store it out of the way or transported if you have to another location. BTW - I've replied to your PM.

Another plus 1 for the Quick Jacks. I store them on floor. Haven't found a better place, and no pain of lifting them up on the wall every time I use them.

Outdoor cushion storage. No one usually gets out of the side door of my wife's car. No better place to store them at the moment.

I've bought mine directly from BendPak (bendpak.com)
Paid $1,190 with free shipping to NC for the BL-5000SLX. Call the number on their website and ask for a discount, that's what I did. The unit retails for $1340 but typically they will discount it during holidays. Received excellent and very responsive service so far and am very happy with it. It already paid for itself with all the money saved from DIY maintenance for 3 cars.

I called Quikjack and Bendpak directly and they both told me to pound sand
They didn't discount a single dollar I guess all those years working in Purchasing didn't serve for much! |

It's nice but I would say they are overpriced for what it is. It's not worth the price IMO.

I just used jack stands in my new garage. First time in 17 years I've had to use jack stands in my garage as I had a lift in my Vegas house.
Quick Jack just moved to the top of my xmas list. Can't wait for black friday.

I'm very happy with the quickjack. It works well, seems super safe and it doesn't need much space |

Glad you got one. I?m sure those who utilize it pretty regularly don?t move from floor location much - but if need be how heavy are they to move? |

As far as picking them up, they must be like 30lb each so it's not comfortable but it's certainly doable. I'm considering moving them in the X5 to a friend's house to finish a wrap. The hoses are really high quality and have leak-proof quick disconnects. I didn't believe it at first but after trying a few times I've accepted that magic exists |
