Does anyone have one of these? And if you do can you comment both positive and negative. If you want you can PM me. I am close to making a decision but I need to either see one (I am in Western NY) or hear from people on this. I have another alternative but this may fit the bill. Thanks for the help.

I bought a Atlas PV-10P from Greg Smith in Indy and it works just fine for me. It's the 2nd I bought from them ... the first was for my first shop, it was a 9k or the equivalent from back then (~2005). When I build my next shop, I'll probably get my next lift there also. But maybe the previous poster has a point, its worth doing your research.

I have this exact model and I love it. Well built and a good economical choice for a home user IMO. You can see pics in my build thread by using the link (in red) below.

I've got one. Love it. Just be aware that the instructions are ****! I think they were translated from Chinese and a few things did not come across clear. Not a deal breaker. I took 2 weeks to set mine up with no lifting aids. They are pretty self expanitary. Take your time and not be in a big hurry. It can be done in 5 hrs, but why hurry, you waited this long, what's a bit more?

I have pictures in my profile that I posted along with things that I thought might be good to not. They are not in order, but they are there anyways.

Note: After drilling holes in floor vaccuum, blow out the holes very good. It really is the most importand part having those bolts in the floor properly.

I have one-love it-have a dodge quad cab diesel with a trans problem on it at home right now-didnt even grunt when lifting it-no problem with install or operation whatsoever-have had it up and operational for only three months though so no long term opinion yet but build looks strong

I spoke to a lift service company prior to buying a lift. They said when they service and repair lifts they use only manufacture supplied parts. This covers their *** if the lift fails after a repair and they are using someone else's part that was supposed to be "good enough". Make sure the company you're buying from has parts for their old lifts available.

Thanks everyone for your response. I have chosen to stick with Bendpak. I have a four post in another building. I felt it was best to stick with what I know. Thanks again.

Here's how I used this lift and handled my low ceiling height.
